Trigger Settings
Counter Arm—You can control when the counter starts the encoder velocity
measurement through the counter arm control. Aer the counter is armed, it waits
for the active edge on the encoder signal, and then it begins measuring the encoder
velocity. The measurement data is only ready and valid once the counter has
finished measuring the first measurement according to the Divisor and
Measurement Time settings. The counter returns a value of zero for both the N
ticks
and N
counts
times prior to the first measurement becoming ready. Refer to your
soware documentation for more information on arming the counter.
