Counter CNTx
In addition to the counters that are set automatically and which can be viewed under the
menu option Statistics (see chapter Description of the display pages (Page 24)) further
counters can also be defined by the user.
The ATC6300 provides the option of setting four counters.
The counters enable pulses coming from an external source to be counted. In addition, it is
possible to count how frequently a defined condition has occurred.
The following functions can be used as a counter source:
●
Input INPx
●
Output OUTx
●
User limit LIMx
●
Remote variable REMx
Example:
The limit LIM 1 defined in the chapter User limit LIMx (Page 57) should serve as a counter
source. This means that counting should start when the values exceed or fall below the
thresholds of 250 V and 220 V from LIM1.
Counter source: LIMx
Channel number: 1
The channel number refers to the counter source. As the number of instances the values
exceed or fall below user limit threshold LIM1 are to counted, channel number 1 shall then
be selected.
Multiplier: 1
Divider: 1
Description: freely selectable text
Measurement unit: freely selectable text
Reset counter: Setting that determines how the counter is to be reset
Channel number: 1
The exact parameters can be found in the chapter P14 - Counters (Page 142).
