5.15 Digital Counter Module EP- 5112
Digital Counter Module EP-5112
The digital counter module EP-5112 can read square-wave signals (for example, from an incremental
encoder) with a maximum input frequency of 100 kHz. Depending on the operating mode, both 32-
bit counters can count up or down independent of each other in a preset range of values. The
counters can be controlled via software by setting the appropriate control word.
In mode Pulse and Direction, channel CH0 A and CH1 A respectively is used as the input, channel CH0
B and CH1 B respectively is used as a direction-determining input. In incremental mode, an
incremental encoder with track A and B can be connected. A status LED is assigned to each channel.
The module electronics supply the connected sensors with power from the input current path (I
