It should just be
Set Count = SystemTimeStep,
Then let the output processing system do the summation over the reporting frequency.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: SystemTimeStep in EMS
I am already using built-in variable SystemTimeStep. My program is simple, just count the time spent during the simulation.
Program :
SET count = count + SystemTimeStep
The program is called "AfterPredictorAfterHVACManagers"
The outputvariable "count" is type "summed" and frequency "systemtimestep".
My timestep is 10min that is to say 0.167 hours.
The right column of the next array is what i expect to have and the left column is what i have in the spreadsheet.
33 33
33,16666667 33,16666667
66,91666667 33,33333333
67,58333333 33,5
68,25 33,66666667
68,91666667 33,83333333
69,58333333 34
70,25 34,16666667
106,3333333 34,33333333
107,3333333 34,5
72,25 34,66666667
36,33333333 34,83333333
36,5 35
This problem doesn't happen with a timestep of 2min.
I want to work with timestep=10 min so i need to find a solution.
I can send the edd file maybe it will be easier to understand.
