Time between direction signal (B) and counter signal (A)
On pulse generators with a direction signal, it must be ensured that there is a gap of at least 5 s/ 50
s between the direction signal (B) and the counter signal (A), depending on the input filter config-
ured.
Continuous count
Definition
In this mode the counter module counts after the release signal from the load value continuously
between the upper and lower limit.
If the counter counts up and reaches the upper count limit, it will jump to the lower count limit
when another counter signal is received, and will continue to count without signal loss from this
point.
If the counter counts down and reaches the lower count limit, it will jump to the upper count limit
when another counter signal is received, and will continue to count without signal loss from this
point.
In this mode the function does not depend on the main count direction.
These settings are illustrated in the following diagram:
Operating mode: continuous count
Main count direction: none, up or down
