SW_GATE 0 A 1: Counting/measuring is started (release).
1 A 0: Counting/measuring is stopped.
The starting and stopping of the counting/
measuring operation with a data bit is called the
"SW gate".
The HW gate is also provided in addition for
stopping and starting the counting/measuring
operation via the DI hardware input. If this option
is set (function DI in "Object 5800hex – Encoder
Basic"), a positive signal must be present at DI in
order to activate the SW gate (logical AND oper-
ation).
