Table 6I (below) can be used to determine connections for Digital Counter Cards with BCD output.
To determine the applicable connections, you must know the stroke length and resolution. Subtract the
resolution from the stroke length to obtain a maximum reading (column 1). Refer to column 7 to deter-
mine the decimal equivalent of each digit, knowing the desired decimal position. An example is worked
out on the following page.

NOTES:
1. LSD = Least Significant Digit
2. MSD = Most Significant Digit
3. Used ONLY with 4 1/4 digits. For 4 1/2 digits or more, a second Digital Counter Card is required (5th digit is on second card).
