Pulse Output / PWM Output Function
9.2 Control Signals
9.2.1 Enable and Start
The pulse output/PWM output function is controlled by user programs.

(Note 1): If the enable signal turns on when the start signal is on, the pulse output will start or the frequency will be
changed considering the start signal as being turned on.

(Note 1): The above I/O numbers are those for the slot number 1 and the starting word number 10. The I/O numbers
actually used vary according to the slot number where the unit is installed and the starting word number.
9.2.2 Reset
• With the counter for the pulse output/PWM output, the reset operation by user programs can
be performed.
• The PLS/PWM counter elapsed value area (UM00170-UM00177) is reset to "0" by the reset
operation.

(Note 1): The above I/O numbers are those for the slot number 1 and the starting word number 10. The I/O numbers
actually used vary according to the slot number where the unit is installed and the starting word number.
(Note): The "PLS/PWM counter elapsed value" area of the channel to which the positioning function has been set with
the H type cannot be reset by the above operation.

Description
Enables or disables the pulse output/PWM output function.
If this signal turns off during the output, the pulse output/PWM output will stop.
Starts the pulse output/PWM output when the enable signal is valid.
When this signal turns on during the execution of the pulse output/PWM
output, the frequency will be changed.
