AVERAGE TIME
The average time is a time interval in seconds during
which all readings calculated from the input are
averaged.
The average time is programmable from 0 to 9.9
seconds.
To disable this feature program 0.
When the display presents unwanted variations, due
to that the input signal is not regular, the
programming of the average time for a larger value
may help stabilize the display.
The average time can be calculated for a desired
number of readings knowing the signal frequency.
Example: With a setup of 0.1s, if the input signal
frequency is of approx. 10Hz or less, the meter will
only take one reading per each 0.1s making no
average. With an input signal of approx. 100Hz, the
meter will be able to collect and average about 10
readings in 0.1s. If the input signal is of approx.
1000Hz, the display will read out the average of
about 100 readings.

IMPORTANT:
Direction sensing indication is achieved
by selecting one of the bidirectional count modes
PHASE or dIrEC.
"Positive sign" indication occurs when the pulses applied to
the instrument increase the counter while "negative sign"
indication occurs when the input pulses decrement the
counter.
A change in the polarity of rate is recognized when the meter
receives at least two consecutive pulses in the opposite
direction of the one of the previous pulses.
DECIMAL POINT
The decimal point indication helps to read the display in the
desired engineering units.
The decimal point has not real value, that is the digits to the
right of the decimal point are not actually decimals. To read
values with resolution to the desired decimal places is
achieved by a combination of decimal point and scaling
factor.
SCALE FACTOR
The scale factor is programmable from 0.0001 to 99999.
Individual decimal point location makes possible to program
any value within this range independently from the decimal
point of the display. Any number below 1 acts like a divisor
while a number above 1 acts like a multiplier.
