ioLogik R2110 Series User’s Manual
Configuring with ioAdmin
3-11
In Event Counter mode, the ioLogik R2110’s DI can connect to the limit switch or the proximity
switch and can count the time based on the ON/OFF status. You can set the trigger for two modes,
Lo to Hi, or Hi to Lo. When setting the trigger as Lo to Hi, the counter value increases when the
switch is pushed. When setting the trigger as Hi to Lo, the counter value increases when the switch
is pushed and released.
To eliminate the problem of bouncing with the switch, the ioLogik R2110 provides software
filtering. It is configurable in multiples of 10 ms. For example, a setting of
2
would mean a 20 ms
filter (2 x 10 ms). The maximum value allowed by the software filter is 65535.
Setting the filter to “0” causes the system to filter all signals.
The sampling rate of the counter is 50 Hz. This function is designed for low speed switching, not
for motor control. You may also configure how the counter is handled when the ioLogik R2110 is
powered on or in safe status. If
Start
is checked off in the Power On Settings, the counter will
begin counting events as soon as the ioLogikR2110 is powered on. If
Start/Continue
is checked
off, the counter will start or continue counting events when the ioLogik R2110 switches to safe
status as configured by the Host Connection Watchdog.
