Modes and Scaling
The INT-C2 has a number of useful operating modes. When you have chosen a mode, you
can then scale the display . To select a mode, switch the lockout switch OFF and press the
Set1 button for 3 seconds....

Total
= Single input scalable counter
Gated.t
= Single input scalable counter with gate input
1 in U.D
=Single input scalable counter with up/down direction input
2 in U.D
= Dual input scalable counter. Input1=count up. Input2 =count down
2 in U.U.
= Dual input scalable counter, Input1 and Input 2 are up count ports
4 uudd = 4 inputs. Inputs 1 & 2 = up count, inputs 3 & 4 = down count
4 uuuu = 4 inputs, all up count.
4 dddd = 4 inputs, all down count.
The scaling is fully adjustable.
Puls.In
= Pulse input - specify a number of input pulses.
Disp
= display. Specify the amount the display must change by, for your
specified number of input pulses.
You can position the
decimal point
wherever you want, for both Puls.In and
Disp. While in the setup, press Set2 for 3 seconds and you will then be able to
move the decimal point position with the UP / DOWN button. Press OK when
done.
You can set a value to which the display will always reset, using
PRESET
You can pre-load the counter with a starting value, with
Preload .
If a preload
value is set, but Preset is 0, the counter will clear to 0 when you do a reset.
The
Period
counter is useful for measuring intervals, or as a bake timer.
With Pulsin= 1 and disp=1, the unit will display in milliseconds.
With Pulsin= 1000 and disp=1.00, the unit will display in seconds, to 2 places
With Pulsin= 3600 and disp= 0.001 the unit will display in hours, to 3 places
Freely choose your own scaling to suit your application.
The
Rate
mode is ideal for measuring frequency, speed or cadence.
With Freq.in=1 and disp=1, the unit will display in
pulses per second
or
Hz
.
With Freq.in=1 and disp=60, the unit will diplay in
pulses per minute
With Freq.in=1 and disp=3600, the unit will display in
pulses per hour
.
With Frequ=1 and disp=60, the unit will display
RPM
if 1 pulse per rev.
Avg
= number of pulses to average, to smooth a jittery reading.
Del
= number of seconds after loss of signal, before the display returns to 0
