Rate Range
In a non-inverted rate range, the outputs are active if the rate measurement is
within the user-defined range. In an inverted rate range, the outputs are active if
the rate measurement is outside the user-defined range. The input rate can be up
to 1 MHz in either direction.
Figure 10 shows all ranges referring to one counter. The module is capable of
individually assigning each range to any counter. Each counter can also have a
combination of count and rate ranges.
