Offset For programmable absolute shaft encoders: the offset value is added to the value of physical position. As a result you get a relative shift of the output value (output value = position value + offset value).
Open collector The collector of the output transistor is not terminated (i.e. open)
Operating mode Programming the counter functions for a specific application.
– Range mode: In this mode, the output signals are activated within the set range.
– Increment mode: After a preset value is reached, the corresponding signal is released and the counter jumps directly to the next preset value (without reset). (See also program mode)
– Coincidence mode: The output signals are activated each time the count and preset value coincide (coincidence), regardless of counter advance sense.
- Program mode: The preset values are processed one after the other independently of their setting value. The counter recognizes preset value 2 only after preset value 1 has been reached.
- Reset mode: After a preset value has been reached, the corresponding output signal is released, and the counter is reset to its initial value; thus the next preset value is always processed starting from the initial value.
– Set mode: Resetting of counter to the programmed main preset value.Standard programming for subtracting count.
OUT Output (preset, zero signal, etc.)
Overflow indicator When maximum display capacity has been exceeded, this is indicated by the corresponding code in the display of the counter. Deleted by a reset command.
