Parameters
Only the parameters that are relevant for the counters are explained below. These are part of the
parameters of the electronic module 8 DI NAMUR and depend on the selected conguration:
Table 4-14 Parameters for the counters
Parameters Setting Description
Encoder type counter in‐
puts
• Channel disabled
• NAMUR sensor
• Single contact unconnected
Select the sensor for the respective
counter for channel 0 or 1.
Counter 1 mode
• Standard counting function
• Periodic counting function
• Cascaded counting function
Select the operating mode of the
counter 1.
Counter 2 mode
• Standard counting function
• Periodic counting function
• Cascaded counting function
Select the operating mode of the
counter 2. This parameter is not rele‐
vant if you have set the "Counter 1
mode" parameter to "Cascade count‐
ing function".

4.18.1 Properties
Properties
The electronic module 8 DI NAMUR enables the measurement of frequencies on channels 0 and
1:
• 2 frequency meters from 1 Hz to 5 kHz
• Congurable metering window (GATE)
• The signals of the frequency meter are read in by means of the digital inputs of the electronic
module.
• You congure and parameterize the frequency meters of the electronic module 8 DI NAMUR
in the conguration software, e.g. HW Cong.
• Conguration "2 Trace/ 6 DI NAMUR": This conguration makes available 2 frequency meters.
