High-speed Counter Inputs
The following CPU Unit input bits can be used as high-speed counter inputs.
The maximum count frequency is 5 kHz in differential phase mode and
20 kHz in the other modes.
The minimum pulse widths for inputs IN00000 (A-phase input) and IN00001
(B-phase input) are as follows:
The minimum pulse width for input IN00002 (Z-phase input) is as follows:
Interrupt Inputs
CPM2C PCs are equipped with inputs that can be used as interrupt inputs
(interrupt input mode or counter mode) and quick-response inputs. The mini-
mum pulse width for these inputs is 50
µs.
In CPU Units with 10 I/O points, inputs IN00003 and IN00004 can be used as
interrupt inputs. In CPU Units with 20/32 I/O points, inputs IN00003 through
IN00006 can be used as interrupt inputs.
