opto engineering ITALA - Counter and Timer Control

Itala | INSTRUCTION MANUAL
period of oeDebounceAmount must pass before choosing if the input signal is spurious or not.
The output synchronization signal can be chosen between an internally generated pulse which as-
serts when conditions are met (e.g. TimerEnd, CounterEnd, EncoderOut, ...) and a dedicated pulse
generator: the advantage of using the second approach relies in the possibility of choosing the
duration of the pulse, while in the first case the generated signals may last only one clock period
and may be too fast to be detected by the slave device.
The oePulseGeneratorEnable feature allows the triggering of the pulse generator when Line-
Source condition is met, while the oePulseGeneratorPeriod feature sets its on-time.
