5.5 Mode Counter

In this menu the operation as position indicator, impulse counting, sum of 2 inputs, difference of 2 inputs

or up-down counter is defined. Input A and Input B are used. This menu is only displayed when the

appropriate OPERATIONAL MODE in GENERAL MENU is selected.

COUNT MODE

This parameter defines the counter operation.

A SINGLE

Input A is a counting input. Input B defines the counting direction:

„LOW“ = forward „HIGH“ = reverse

A+B

Sum counter: Impulses at A + Impulses at B

A-B

Differential counter: Impulses at A – impulses at B

A/B 90 x1

Quadrature counter: Impulses A, B with edge counting x1

A/B 90 x2

Quadrature counter: Impulses A, B with edge counting x2

A/B 90 x4

Quadrature counter: Impulses A, B with edge counting x4

FACTOR

Scaling factor. With the summing mode (A+B) and the differential mode (A-B) please note

that the impulse scaling factor will only affect input A

For example: A setting of factor 1.23456 and 100000 input pulses will result in a value of 123456.

SET VALUE

In case of a reset command (via keys, Control-Inputs or PC-user interface), the counter is set to the value entered

here.

DECIMAL POINT

This value defines the position of the decimal point.

No decimal point
