    ADAM-5080 Counter/Frequency Module selected, it means the Alarm status will be "latched" whenever the alarm being triggered. Once the alarm status being "latched," it will thereafter stay in that triggered state. Users will have to issue a "Clear Alarm Status" command to return the "latched" alarm status back to normal.

    User's Manual V cc Internal logic Figure 3 TTL Input Level ADAM-5080 Counter/Frequency Mode Selection Users can select Bi-direction, Up/Down Counter or Frequency option as shown in Figure 4. Figure 4 Counter / Frequency Mode Note: All four channels of ADAM-5080 will operate simulta- neously in the mode you have selected.

  • Page 12: Features -- Counter Mode

    ADAM-5080 Counter/Frequency Module Features -- Counter Mode Up/Down Counting The Up/Down Counter Function offers two types of counting: Up Couting (increasingly) and Down Counting (decreasingly). Up Counting : when C0A+ and C0A- sense any input signals, the counter counts up. Down Counting : when C0B+ and C0B- sense any input signals, the counter counts down.

  • Page 13: Features -- Frequency Mode

    User's Manual Up Counting : when the input signal is within logic level "1", the counter value increases. Down Counting : when the input signal is within logic level "0", the counter value decreases. C0A+ C0A- C0B+/D+ C0B-/D - Figure 6 Wiring for Bi-direction Counting Note: If users select TTL mode and don't connect C0B+ C0B-, the counter value will increase.

When the counter value exceeds Maximum value, the overflow value increases; When the counter value goes under Minimum value, the overflow value decreases. Besides, when the counter value runs beyond the range of Max/Min value, it will continue counting from the initial value.
