Connecting the Tachometer Signal
The XM-121 provides a single tachometer input signal. The signal processing
performed on the tachometer signal depends on the configuration of the
module. See page 52 for a description of the tachometer parameters.
IMPORTANT
If you are not using the tachometer input, set the Pulses
per Revolution parameter to zero (0). This will disable the
tachometer measurement and prevent the module from
indicating a tachometer fault (TACH indicator flashing
yellow). A tachometer fault occurs when no signal pulses
are received on the tachometer input signal for a relatively
long period.
