Event input terminal
In the first section in a multi function counter block detail window, event input terminals are arranged by default. For a 16-bit
counter, four event input terminals ("Event 0" to "Event 3") are arranged. For a 32-bit counter, two event input terminals
("Event 0", "Event 1") are arranged.
They are used to use signals input to a multi function counter block in the hardware logic outline window ("Event 0" to "Event
3") as event signals in the multi function counter block detail window.
