System tags used for timers/counters?

My application requires a one-hour timer triggered by an event performed by my controller (Galil). Can I use the 'minute component of the current time' system tag to create such a timer on the T7A?

Modbus TCP Sample Project available?

I have the unsupported Galil driver but I can't figure out how to use it and the supporting documentation is pretty light. So, I'll try to use the Modbus slave or master drivers. Are there a...
