MCP 4 – User's manual

Contatto

All counters of MCP4 are in 16-bit format, thus the content of each counter is in the range 0 to 65535.

For the counter function, the following options can be also specified:

AUTORESET/AUTORELOAD

MIN

MAX

Cn,R

 copy the counter value to a register (with same identifier)

Variable parameters

The syntax allowing to specify these options is the following (

Vx

 may be any allowed point):

Vx

 = 

Cy,

R > 30, AR, MIN, MAX .........

where:

R

 means that the counter value is continuously copied in a register (with the same identifier)

AR

  is   the   (optional)   value   for   the   autoreset   and   the   autoreload,   in   order   to   make   possible   the

automatic zeroing and the automatic loading of the counter: when the forward counting exceeds the
value 

AR

, then the counter wil be automatically zeroed, while when the backward counting decrease

below the value 0, then the counter will be automatically reloaded with the value 

AR

. This value can

be also the content of a register (see the examples in the following). 

Note

: if the autoreset/autoreload

value   has   not   been   specified,   then   the   counting   will   be   stopped   to   0   (when   down   counting)   and   at   the
maximum allowed value (when up counting), thus avoiding the underflow or the overflow of the counter.

MIN

 is the minimum value that can be assumed by the counter; the default value is 0

MAX

 is the maximum value that can be assumed by the counter; the default value is 65535

The values for the threshold, autoreset, minimum, maximum, step and preset can be also the content of
registers (see the examples in the following).

If one of the options 

AR

MIN

 and 

MAX

 has been omitted, the default value will be assumed. The described

options must be however separated by commas as in the following examples.

Examples:

V1

 = 

C0

>300 S(2)

I1.1

 & S(-1)

I1.2

Up counting step 2, Down counting step 1, V1 goes 
ON when counter is greater than 300.

V1

 = 

C0

>30,50 S(1)

I1.1

 & S(-1)

I1.2

Autoreset/Autoreload: when counter exceeds 50, it is
reset to zero; when the counter goes below zero, it is
reloaded to 50.

V1

 = 

C0

>30,,5,50 S(1)

I1.1

 & S(-1)

I1.2

MIN and MAX: the up counting is stopped to 50 and
the down counting is stopped to 5.

V1

 = 

C0

>3,5,1 S(1)

I1.1

 & S(-1)

I1.2

Autoreset/Autoreload   and   MIN:   when   counter
exceeds 5, it is reloaded to 1; when the counter goes
below 1, it is reloaded to 5.
