4.4.2 DI/PI_Type002
• This type of pin is a ground referenced input (DI) including a pulse counting (PI) feature.
• Pulse inputs can be used as a 1 or 2 channel pulse counter and they have a reset
possibility. Possible software channels and pairs are listed in section
SW channels for
Pulse Inputs.
• This type of pin has no configurable features

Note 1: Exceeding the max values might cause damage to input.
Note 2: These parameters depend on software cycle time.
Note 3: Applies to inputs used as normal digital input. Violating this rating may lead to
application program not noticing all input state transitions.
Note 4: Pulse width must be greater that the software cycle time. For example with 50/50 pulse
ratio, the pulse frequency is 1 / (2*pulse width)
Note 5: Violating this rating may lead to system not recognizing all input state transitions.
Note 6: Overload conditions.
Note 7: tC denotes software cycle time.
Note 8: Max value can be reached by 2-98% pulse ration.
