BEAMEX MC6 - Pulse Counting; Switch Sensing

Measurements - Pulse Counting 21
PULSE COUNTING
Pulse counting has three settings that should be checked before (re)starting a
pulse count:
 Trigger level. Select a level that suits your signal.
 Trigger edge. Select either rising or falling edge.
 Zeroing. A possibility to zero the pulse count.

Range 0 … 9 999 999 pulses
Note.
There is a trigger level choice for (dry) contacts with no exter-
nal potential. 24V supply may also be used. Connect as light
blue line shows in picture above.
SWITCH SENSING
Switch Sensing has three settings:
 A possibility to invert switch's open/close state indication.
 Trigger level. Select a level that suits your switch. See note to the right.
 Sound setting. Define whether MC6 emits a sound when the switch's
state change and if yes, when it is emitted.

You can also use Switch Sensing for binary signal detection. For normal switch
state detection: an open switch equals 1 / True and a closed switch 0 / False.
