Operating Modes
There are three operating modes available for the counter:
•
Event counter
This counts the pulses detected on the counter input.
If a gate has been defined, then the counter function can also be selected and
unselected.
•
Gate time counter/Frequency counter
This counts the pulses within a definable gate time (time window in which
the measurement takes place).
The gate time can be defined in a range from 1 ms to 10,000 ms.
A gate time of 1 s results in the frequency of the input signal in Hz.
The gate time counter can be parameterized using the process data.
•
Gate time counter/Cycle duration
The cycle duration of the signal is determined within the configurable gate
time (averaging) and output as a process value (in µs).
The process value results from the reciprocal value of the Frequency *
1 million.
