Using the Pulse Catch Inputs, Mode 50

It is recommended that you read Chapter 1, Getting Started, which introduces the six

different modes of operation of the D2–CTRINT module, before selecting a mode.

Even though several features can be mixed from several modes, you must select

one of the modes as your primary mode. Pulse Catch Input, Mode 50 will be the only

mode covered in this chapter.

It is also important to read Chapter 2, concerning the general guidelines for field

wiring your device to the module. You may want to refer to Chapter 2 as you learn to

make use of the D2-CTRINT’s Pulse Catch Inputs. A good place to begin is to learn

what each channel of the module represents when it is being used in the Pulse Catch

Input mode.

Shown in the above diagram and illustration are points 00 through 03 which default

to pulse catch inputs when the module is used with the DL240/250–1/260 and set to

operate in Mode 50. When the module is used with the DL230 only point 00 can be

used for the pulse catch input, and the remaining channels can be used as discrete

filtered inputs. Chapter 8 contains information about the filter time constant.

When used with the DL240/250–1/260, the channels which are not configured as

pulse catch inputs can be configured for many different functions, or as discrete

filtered inputs.
