Frequency measurement is suitable for measuring speeds.
You can use the time measurement option for a most varied range of
applications.
• One example would be to determine the size of a part using the time
measurement. This then allows you to determine the differences in
size on a conveyor belt using the time differences.
• You can use the time measurement for measuring speed if you want
to react to situations where the limit values are exceeded or fallen
short of.. You can, e.g. set the output when a stipulated highest speed
has been reached.
Note: Please note that when in time measurement mode, you can
measure lower speeds than when in frequency measurement
mode as the time measurement works with 16-bit test values
but the frequency measurement works with 24-bit values.
You can generate and output pulse sequences at various frequencies
using the pulse generator.
Nowadays, small I/O stations are often used in standard switch cabinets
with a depth of 80 mm. The design of the Inline terminals allows for use in
this type of switchbox.
The housing dimensions of a terminal are defined by the dimensions of
the electronic socket and of the connector.
The electronics base of the terminal is 24.4 mm wide (see Fig. 1-3) .
Two plugs, each with a width of 12.2 mm are plugged onto this base (see
Fig. 1-4).
With plugged-on connector, the terminal has a depth of 71.5 mm.
The height of the terminal depends on the type of connector used. Either
one standard connector and one shielded connector (connector set for
the counter terminal), or two standard connectors, can be used on the
counter terminal.
