Types of Counting and Operations
The main unit has built-in 32-bit high-speed bi-directional counters (1-phase 1-count input, 1-phase 2-count
input and 2-phase 2-count input). The high-speed counters are classified into hardware counters and
software counters according to the counting method.
For some high-speed counters, external reset input terminals or external start input terminals (start of
counting) can be selected.
11.3.1 Classification according to counting method
11.3.2 Types and input signal forms
The types and input signals (waveforms) of high-speed counters (1-phase 1-count input, 1-phase 2-count
input and 2-phase 2-count input) are shown below.
11.3.3 High-speed counter device notations
The input terminal assignments for FX
3U
PLC high-speed counters can be switched when used in
combination with a special auxiliary relay.
This section classifies these high-speed counter devices under the following notations. Note that an "(OP)"
input cannot be programmed.

Hardware counters
Counting by hardware
They are switched to software counters under some working conditions.
Software counters
Counting through interrupt handling by CPU
Each counter must be used within limitations on maximum response frequency and overall
frequency.
