1746-HSCE2 Multiple Channel High-Speed Counter and Encoder Module
The 1746-HSCE2 is a 24-bit high-speed, multi-channel counter that directly interfaces with incremental
encoders and other high-speed input sensors. The module accepts bi-directional input pulse frequencies of
up to 1 MHz. For faster throughput time, the module has four on-board outputs that are controlled
independently of the output scan. The status of four “soft outputs” can also be made available to
the SLC backplane for control of additional outputs.
The module supports three operating modes that provide two-, three-, or four-channel operation. It is
configurable for up to two quadrature encoder inputs and up to four pulse inputs. System performance
is enhanced with the module’s ability to accept control adjustments while it is actively counting pulses.
In addition to monitoring an encoder market pulse, the Z/gate input channel can be used for storing,
holding, and resetting count data.
Features
• High-speed counting applications — Frequency response up to 1 MHz and 24-bit count capability.
• Configuration for ring or linear counting, rate calculation, output control by count range, output control by rate range,
and pulse gating.
• Configuration flexibility — Easy-to-use bit configuration tables allow the user to choose the counter functionality
best suited for the application
• Suitable for remote applications
