DESCRIPTION
The Model C48 Counter is available as a Standard Counter or a Batch
Counter. The Standard Counter is available with single or dual presets. The
Batch Counter has a main process counter with dual presets and a secondary
counter with a single preset. The secondary counter can be selected to function
as a batch or a total counter.
The C48C features a 7 segment, 2 line by 6 digit reflective or backlit LCD
display. For the backlit versions, the main display line is red and shows the
count value or the Batch/Total value when preset 3 or output 3 is viewed in the
secondary display. The smaller secondary display line is green and can be used
to view the prescaler value, preset values, output time values or Batch/Total
count values (Batch model).
The C48C offers a choice of nine programmable counting modes for use in
applications requiring bi-directional, anti-coincidence, and quadrature counting.
The unit may be programmed to register counts on both edges of the input signal
providing frequency doubling capability. DIP switches are used for input
configuration set-up and to provide a Program Disable function.
Four front panel push-buttons are used for programming the operating modes
and data values, changing the viewed display, and performing user
programmable functions, e.g. reset, etc. The C48C can be configured for one of
two numeric data entry methods, digit entry or automatic scrolling. The digit
entry method allows for the selection and incrementing of digits individually.
The automatic scrolling method allows for the progressive change of one
through all digit positions by pressing and holding the “up” or “down” button.
The Program Disable DIP switch, a user-programmable code value, and an
external user input selected for Program Disable can be utilized to provide
multi-level protection against unauthorized changes to data values and unit
configuration.
The C48 Counter has programmable User Inputs and a programmable front
panel function key. The user inputs can be configured as sinking (active low) or
sourcing (active high) inputs via a single plug jumper. The user inputs and the
front panel function key can be configured to provide a variety of functions.
The Standard Counter with Dual Presets is available with solid-state or Relay
outputs. The Single Preset model has a solid-state and relay output. The Batch
Counter has relay outputs for Output 2 and the Batch/Total Output 3, with
Output 1 available as solid-state. The Batch Counter is also available with three
solid-state outputs. For all C48 Counters, the solid-state outputs are available in
a choice of NPN current sinking or PNP current sourcing, open-collector
transistor outputs. All relay output boards are field replaceable.
A Prescaler Output model is available as a Dual Preset, with solid-state
outputs. The Prescaler Output is useful for providing a lower frequency scaled
pulse train to a PLC or another external totalizing counter. The Prescaler Output
provides a programmable width output pulse for every count or every 10 counts
registered on the display.
The optional RS-485 serial communication interface provides two-way
communication between a C48 and other compatible equipment such as a
printer, PLC, HMI, or a host computer. In multipoint applications (up to thirty-
two), the address number of each C48 on the line can be programmed from 0 to
99. Data from the C48 can be interrogated or changed, and alarm output(s) may
be reset by sending the proper command code via serial communications. PC
software, SFC48, allows for easy configuration of controller parameters. These
settings can be saved to disk for later use or used for multi-controller down
loading. On-line help is provided within the software.
Optional programming software (SFC48) is available to program all unit
configuration parameters. The software allows unit configurations to be created,
uploaded, downloaded, and saved to a file for later use or multi-unit
programming.
The unit is constructed of a lightweight, high impact plastic case with a
textured front panel and a clear display window. The front panel meets NEMA
4X/IP65 specifications when properly installed. Multiple units can be stacked
horizontally or vertically. Modern surface-mount technology, extensive testing,
plus high immunity to noise interference makes the C48 Counters extremely
reliable in industrial environments.
