Counter Channel Setting (Di_Counter); Pulse Output (Do_Pulse); Local Timer (Timer) - Advantech ADAM-6217 User Manual

Counter Channel Setting (DI_Counter)

Below are the steps to configure counter channel setting:
1. Choose correct model name by the Target module combo box in the Operation
area. If the Destination is Local, you don't need to choose the model name.
2. Define what action (start the counter by Start, or stop the counter by Stop, or
reset the counter by Reset) will be taken for the true action (When the logic
result value passed from Execution stage is logic True) by the True Action
combo box.
3. The false action (When the logic result value passed from Execution stage is
logic False) is displayed by the False Action text box and will automatically be
set according to the true action. Define which counter channel is responsible to
take the defined action by the Channel combo box.
4. Click the OK button to complete the configuration.

Pulse Output (DO_Pulse)

Below are the steps to configure pulse output:
1. Choose correct model name by the Target module combo box in the Operation
area.
2. Define what action (continuous generate pulse train by Continue, stop pulse
generation by Stop, or only generate finite number of pulse by Num of pulse) will
be taken for the true action (When the logic result value passed from Execution
stage is logic True) from the True Action combo box.
3. The false action (When the logic result value passed from Execution stage is
logic False) is displayed by the False Action text box and will always be Keep
current status, meaning there is no action change for the selected digital output
channel.
4. Define which digital output channel is responsible to take the defined action
(start or stop pulse generation) by the Channel combo box. 5. If you choose
Num of pulse in the True Action combo box, type the number of pulse you want
to generate in the Value text box.
5. Click the OK button to complete the configuration.

Local Timer (Timer)

There are 16 local timers on ADAM-6200 module. Here, you can define the timer
action depending on the logic result value from the Execution stage. After you have
chosen Timer in the Operation type combo box, select the interested timer by the
Index combo box in the Operation area. (From timer 0 to timer 15) Then you can
define the timer action by the Type combo box in the Operation area.
When you choose ON-Delay, the timer will start to count the time passed when the
logic result value passed from the Execution stage is logic True, while the timer will
stop counting and reset its value to zero when the logic result value is logic False. If
you choose OFF-Delay, the true action and
false action will be opposite: the timer will start to count the time passed when the
logic result value is logic False, while it will stop counting and rest its value to zero
when the logic result value is logic True. The action description is displayed by the
True/False act text box. After you have completed the setting, click the OK button.
