Precautions When Using the Electronic Gear
When you use the electronic gear, make sure that IL08 (After Convert Increment Pulse)
does not exceed the double-length integer range (-2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647). If the
range is exceeded, the parameters (IL08 (After Convert Increment Pulse), IL0A (Current
Count Value After Converts), and IL0C (PL Latch Value After Converts)) of the Counter
Function Module, which are handled as double-length integers, may not be reported correctly.
Conditional Expressions to Ensure the Parameters Are Within the
Range
Use the following conditional expression to make sure that IL08 (After Convert Increment
Pulse) does not exceed the double-length integer range.
