Debounce not working

[Bolt]

I was commissioning a new project today, and the Debounce instruction seemed to not be working. The input was bouncing at about 1 hertz, and the on /off time delays were both set to 1 second, but the output coil bounced in unison with the input. All my variables are UDTs, the input leg, the times and the output coil.

18 pt ethernet BRX on 2.8. Any ideas?

Stick an INC instruction w/a dummy register below your DEBOUNCE just to ensure the instruction itself is running.  It should be incrementing the dummy register every time the input leg of the DEBOUNCE has power, and then not increment when it does not.  This will help isolate where the issue is (it's not a fix, but a debug/diagnostic).

Double check your Cross Reference to make sure the Debounce Bit is not being set anywhere else.  Float your cursor over that parameter and PopUp XRef should show up, check the Output list.
