Detailed Description of I/O Modules
The internal gate is automatically closed, the status bit End value reached is set and
a process alarm will be triggered if it is parameterized.
To restart counting, the internal gate must be reopened. Counting starts again at
the load value.
Upon reaching the lower count limit the counter jumps to the upper count limit to
continue counting from there. The status bit Underflow performed is set and a
process alarm will be triggered if it is parameterized. All status bits remain set until
they are reset with the bit Reset status bits in the control word.
Down-counting starts at the load value.
If the parameterized end value +1 is reached during counting in the negative
direction, the counter jumps back to the load value at the next count pulse. The
internal gate is automatically closed, the status bit End value reached is set and a
process alarm will be triggered if it is parameterized.
To restart counting, the internal gate must be reopened. Counting starts again at
the load value.
Upon reaching the upper count limit the counter jumps to the lower count limit to
continue counting from there. The status bit Overflow performed is set and a
process alarm will be triggered if it is parameterized. All status bits remain set until
they are reset with the bit Reset status bits in the control word.
