Good morning @eliaquin Jaramillo,

Thank you very much for your question!

The Horizontal Position animation of the Gears in this lesson uses an Integer Tag that has a min of 0 and max of 500.

You could use the code I include with the course (see **note below,) a free running Timer, a System tag, or a Horizontal Slider and memory tag.

The PLC code for a free running timer with a PRE of 500 would look like: XIO T4:0/DN TON T4:0 .01 500 0. In this case the Horizontal Position tag you would use would be T4:0.ACC

If you wanted to use SystemSecond, you could but you'd need to change the animation from 0-500 to 0-59.

If you wanted to use a Horizontal Slider from the Library, you'd assign the Horizontal Position animation to a new Memory tag that is Analog type with a Min of 0 and Max of 500.

**As for the code I use in the course, I provide it as an ACD and PDF in Appendix A:
