Rule Name Data Type Description Semantics
3 Get/Set Number of
Pulses per
Revolution
UINT The number of signal
pulses per revolution of
the shaft (number of gear
teeth).
0 = Tachometer disabled
> 0 = Tachometer enabled
4 Get/Set Auto Trigger BOOL Indicates whether the
trigger level is determined
automatically from the
signal.
0 = Use specified Trigger Level
and Hysteresis
1 = Determine trigger level and
hysteresis automatically
5 Get/Set Trigger Level REAL The signal level to be
used as the trigger.
Volts
6 Get/Set Trigger Slope USINT The slope of the signal at
the threshold crossing to
be used as the trigger.
0 = Positive
1 = Negative
7 Get/Set Trigger
Hysteresis
REAL The amount of hysteresis
around the trigger level.
In Auto Trigger mode, this
value is a percentage of the
peak-to-peak input signal and
can range from 0 to 50%. In
Manual Trigger mode, this
value is a voltage level (the
hysteresis voltage is added or
subtracted to the threshold
voltage to determine the
hysteresis range).
