About this chapter
This chapter describes among others, Pulse counter logic which is a function used to
meter externally generated binary pulses. The way the functions work, their setting
parameters, function blocks, input and output signals, and technical data are included
for each function.
Pulse-counter logic PCGGIO
Function description
Pulse-counter logic
Introduction
Pulse counter (PCGGIO) function counts externally generated binary pulses, for
instance pulses coming from an external energy meter, for calculation of energy
consumption values. The pulses are captured by the binary input module and then read
by the function. A scaled service value is available over the station bus. The special
Binary input module with enhanced pulse counting capabilities must be ordered to
achieve this functionality.
Principle of operation
The registration of pulses is done for positive transitions (0->1) on one of the 16 binary
input channels located on the Binary Input Module (BIM). Pulse counter values are
sent to the station HMI with predefined cyclicity without reset.
The reporting time period can be set in the range from 1 second to 60 minutes and is
synchronized with absolute system time. Interrogation of additional pulse counter
values can be done with a command (intermediate reading) for a single counter. All
