1 OVERVIEW
This User's Manual describes the specifications, handling and programming method
for the QD62, QD62E and QD62D high-speed counter modules (QD62 (E/D)) used
together with the MELSEC-Q series CPUs.
The QD62(E/D) modules are available with the following I/O types, maximum counting
speeds and number of channels.

Maximum counting speed 200 kPPS 500 kPPS
Number of channels 2 channels
The QD62(E/D) modules have the following input methods for 1 phase/2 phase pulse input:
• Phase 1 pulse input multiple of 1 • Phase 1 pulse input multiple of 2 • CW/CCW
• Phase 2 pulse input multiple of 1 • Phase 2 pulse input multiple of 2
• Phase 2 pulse input multiple of 4
See Section 5.1 for details on the input methods.
An overview of QD62 (E/D) operation is shown in the figure below.

4) I/O signal
1) Counts the pulses to be input to the QD62 (E/D).
2) Preset or counter function can be selected with an external control signal.
3) The present count value and the coincidence output point setting value can be
compared to output a coincidence signal.
4) Using the sequence program, the I/O signal and buffer memory status of the
QD62 (E/D) can be verified.
Also, count start/stop, preset, and counter function can be selected.
