27/09/2002 V560 User Manual 3.4. SCALE INHIBIT It is possible to inhibit the scales count in this way: • by sending a NIM signal through one of the two "VETO" connectors located on the front panel. • by setting the VME VETO (access to the address Base +%52; see § 4.6). The VME VETO is cleared: •... -

27/09/2002 V560 User Manual 4.8. COUNTERS (Base address + %10 ... Base address + % 4C read only) There are sixteen 32 bit read only registers. They contain the 32 bit value of the corresponding counting channels These registers can be read in D16/D32 mode. When the D16 mode is used (word cycles), the register content is located on the 16 bit data bus following Motorola standard, i.e., the most significant word is located at the lowest VME address. -
