Example Range Mode with Linear Counter
In this example four Ranges are specified. The configuration data of the Counter shows that:
• Output 0 must be ON for Counter Values within Range 0.
• Output 1 and 3 must be ON for Counter Values within Range 1.
• Output 2 must be ON for Counter Values within Range 2.
• Both of the Outputs 0 and 3 must be ON for Counter Values within Range 3.
In the above example the Counter Value is within Range 1 and 3 and consequently the Outputs 0, 1
and 3 are turned ON.
