Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc Module Addressing The module uses sixteen zoom (parameter) registers, nine 4X (output) registers for configuration words, and eight 3X (input) registers for data and status words. Table 3-1 Module Registers Register Function Zoom+0..7 Basic Configuration data (4ch - 0..3 / 8ch - 0..
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module Setting Up the Configuration Software The module is compatible with several configuration software packages: ModSoft version 2.4 or later, Concept version 2.1 or later, and ProWorx NxT. Setup and configuration instructions for ModSoft and Concept are provided in this manual. Included with the module is a 3.5-inch floppy disk. Install the disk files to update the configuration software so that you can properly configure your module.
Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc Setting Zoom Registers Using ModSoft The procedure below tells how to enable the zoom registers and make configuration settings in ModSoft. Refer to Zoom Register Layout. 1. Ensure that the ModSoft configuration software has been updated from the module installation disk, as described in “ Setting Up ModSoft” . 2. Open ModSoft, and access the I/O map screen. 3. Select the slot in which you have installed the module. 4.
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module Setting Zoom Registers Using Concept The next procedure describes how to enable the zoom registers and make configuration settings in Concept. Refer to Zoom Register Layout. 1. Ensure that the Concept software has been updated from the installation disk as described in “Setting Up Concept.” 2. Start the Concept Modconnect tool (Modconf.exe). 3. From Modconnect, open the file SPECTRUM.MDC. 4. Select the Quantum counter module, or click Add All. 5.
Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc Setting Up SCIOCFG Software Version 2.1 of Concept introduced a tool for importing Modconnect module definition files into the Concept database. This allows you to configure Modconnect I/O. However, Concept 2.1 does not provide a means for you to design your own I/O configuration menus. Instead, Concept provides a generic interface in which you must enter configuration parameters in hexadecimal values.
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module Zoom Register Layout The following table shows the layout for each of the zoom registers. The 8 channel module uses this layout for the first eight registers. The four channel uses the first 4 zoom registers. (The nineth - 8 channel or 5th - channel zoom register specifies the Bank Switch Period in the Autosequence Mode.) , with bit 1 the MSB and bit 16 the LSB.
Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc Uni-Directional With this configuration, the input increments in an upward direction. All 8 channels may be configured in the unidirectional mode. Every clock pulse will increment the counter on the rising edge. Note: The direction of the counter may be inverted by setting the Count Direction bit described in the Configuration chapter. Bi-Directional The bidirectional counter requires 2 input channels.
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module 30 kHz Filter, Bit 12 The 30 kHz filter is recommended for counter or flow meter applications running at speeds less than 25 kHz. Set this bit to 0 when running to speeds of 50 kHz. Setting this bit to 1 filters input noise above 30 kHz. 15 kHz Filter, Bit 11 The 15 kHz filter is recommended for counter or flow meter applications running at speeds less than 15 kHz. Set this bit to 0 when running to speeds above 15 kHz.
Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc Making Bit Settings for 4X Registers You can only set 4X register bits using ladder logic. This section describes the layout for the registers and defines the bits. Ladder logic examples are provided in chapter 4, Programming. The first 4X register controls channel enabling and multiplexing. The following table shows the bit settings for this register.
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module Bank/Data Format Select: Bits 15-16 The function of these two bits is determined by the Data Delivery Mode, Bit 14. If the Data Delivery Mode is comprehensive, Bit 14 = 0, the bank will be displayed as shown below: 00: Bank 0 – channels 1 and 2 01: Bank 1 – channels 3 and 4 10: Bank 2 – channels 5 and 6 11: Bank 3 – channels 7 and 8 If the Data Delivery Mode is Speed, Bit 14 = 1, the bank will be displayed as shown below: 00: All channels Count LSW only.
Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc Due to the limited register availability of the Quantum Platform, the scale and limit factors are multiplexed onto register 4X+1. Changing these values will generally occur either at power-up or line changeover. On power up, scale factors default to the values stored in EEPROM and the count limit values (preset, count limit, and rate limit) default to zero.
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module Counter Preset: This output data word is used in conjunction with the Counter Preset enable bit. When this bit is set, the value in the counter preset word is loaded into the counter. The counter preset can be used to set the counter to an initial starting value. The bit should be set for at least one I/O scan. The bit can be held on until the data in the counter data is verified to be equal to the preset value.
Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc R Rate Factor: The R scale factor can be used for scaling of the output frequency. The output frequency is divided by the R scale value. Typically a factor of two will be used. The result is the rate data value being 1/2 of the actual value. R factors must be positive numbers. Rate Output Value = Actual Rate Value / R Factor Layout for 4X+2 through 4X+9 Registers Registers 4X+2 through 4X+9 registers contain control word information for the each channel.
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module Preset, Bit 15 Set bit 15 to 1 to load the counter preset value into the counter. This value is used to set the counter to an initial starting value. Set bit 15 for at least one I/O scan, and hold it on until counter data is verified to be equal to the preset value. The counter holds the preset value until the bit 15 is turned off (set to 0). At this time normal counter functions resume. NOTE A counter preset function begins when bit 15 is set to 0.
Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc State, Bit 6”. Zero For the Counter Indicates when the count is zero. The status of the flag is reflected in the counter zero bit in the 3X state register register for the channel. See “ Counter Zero State, Bit 8”. For the Input Rate Indicates when the input rate is zero or below. The status of the flag is reflected in the rate zero bit in the 3X state register register for the channel. See “ Rate Zero State, Bit 5”.
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module Roll over to, Bit 7 When the counter exceeds the maximum count or limit value it will roll over the top. When the counter rolls over it can roll over to a starting value of zero, or it can start at the user-defined Preset value. When this bit is set to zero the counter will roll over to zero. When set to 1 the counter will roll over to the preset value. If the stop on limit flag is set the counter will not roll over until the flag is released.
Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc Bit Settings for 3X+0 Registers The 3X+0 registers contain data, scaling and status information for channels 1 through 8. You can only set 3X register bits using ladder logic. This section describes the layout for the registers and defines the bits. Ladder logic examples are provided in chapter 4, “Programming.
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module The process for updating the scale coefficients and the count limits is as follows: 1. Set the Scale/Limit Word to its desired value (4x+1 register). This must be performed before updating the module control word. 2. Set the following bits on the module control word (register 4X+0) to the appropriate state for the value to be written: a. Channel Number b. Parameter Definition c.
Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc The 3X registers (3X+1 through 3X+8) contain data and status information for channels 1 through 8. You can only set 3X register bits using ladder logic. This section describes the layout for the status registers (3X+1 through 3X+8) and defines the bits. Ladder logic examples are provided in chapter 4, “Programming.
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module Counter Preset Flag: Bit 15 When the Counter Preset value is reached this flag bit is set. The bit is reset when the counter in incremented up or down from the Preset value. Gate Enable Echo: Bit 14 This bit echos the state of the gate enable line. The gate enable line is an external logic line used to time counter events. Counter Invert Echo: Bit 13 This bit echos the state of the counter direction. The invert flag indicates if the invert bit has been set.
Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc Counter Limit Flag: Bit 8 This flag indicates that the counters accumulator has reached its user-defined count limit. When the Counter Limit word is in use, i.e. it has a value other than zero, then the Counter Range flag indicates the counter is at the User defined limit. When the counter value is equal to the Limit value the Counter Limit flag bit will be set until the Reset Flags Bit is set.

Quantum Series 140 EHC 204 00sc 140 EHC 208 00sc Sample Configuration Simple Bi-Directional Ring Counter: The figure below demonstrates ring counter operation. In a ring counter operation, the count value changes between zero and maximum. If, when counting up, the counter reaches the maximum value, it rolls over to zero. If, when counting down, the counter reaches zero, it rolls under to the maximum value.
Counter / Flow Meter Input Module Sample Configuration Using the Meter Proving Inputs A ball proving system would use the meter proving input found on the module. The ball meaures the flow velocity over a fixed length of line. When the ball crosses the starting point a momentary high signal from a proximity switch starts the counter. When the ball crosses the prover exit another proximity switch triggers causing the counter to stop. During the movement of the displacer the meter count is monitored.
