7.3.5 Cyclic count
Overview
In this operating mode, the FM 350-1 counts periodically when the gate is open. You can
assign the following behavior:
● Periodic counting – No main count direction
● Periodic counting - Main count direction up
● Periodic counting - Main count direction down
Periodic counting – No main count direction
In periodic counting mode without a main count direction, when the gate is opened, the
FM 350-1 counts up or down from the load value until one of the count limits is exceeded.
If one of the count limits is exceeded, the following occurs:
● The STS_OFLW or STS_UFLW bit in the feedback interface is set
● The counter is set to the load value, from which it resumes counting
The count limits are fixed at the maximum count range
The STS_ZERO bit is set if the counter level is zero.
The counting is continued until the gate is closed.
