To be able to set timing and encoder count values (for pulse delay, pulse width and retrigger
time) a scheme is used where the exponent (power of ten) of the value is set. For timings, the
exponent values are as follows:
Exponent
value
Multiplier
Number format
Range of values
E 0
1
999.
Values are displayed in seconds
from 1s to 999s in steps of 1s.
E-1
0.1
99.9
Values are displayed in seconds
from 0.1s to 99.9s in steps of
0.1s.
E-2
0.01
9.99
Values are displayed in seconds
from 0.01s to 9.99s in steps of
0.01s.
E-3
0.001
999.
Values
are
displayed
in
milliseconds from 1ms to
999ms in steps of 1ms.
E-4
0.0001
99.9
Values
are
displayed
in
milliseconds from 0.1ms to
99.9ms in steps of 0.1ms.
The flow diagram for entering timings on the keypad is given below.
