Phidgets Frequency Counter
Description
This primitive allows you to control a Phidgets Frequency Counter board.
Once you have the board connected to your PC you need to start the component by sending a trigger to the first input. The 'On' output will
return True if a connection has been established (False otherwise).
If you have multiple boards connected to your PC then you should provide the unique serial number of the board you want to connect to at
the 'Conn' (connection string) input. If you want to connect to a device on a remote server provide the device serial, IP and port or server
name and also a password if necessary separated by commas. Use -1 as the serial if you want to connect to the first device found.
Example connection strings:
“196491” or “635824,myserver” or “-1,myserver,password” or “142567,192.168.1.1,800,password”
The board has two channels for measuring. For each one you can enable the channel. You can set the Filter to zero crossing or logic level
(0=zero crossing, 1=logic level), depending on your sensor. You can set the timeout in milliseconds (the default is 1000 if you leave this input
empty). The reset trigger will reset the counter.
