Function:
ƒ
For starting the counting process the internal gate has to be opened.
– The counter counts forwards from the loading value.
– If the counter reaches the final value −1 in the positive direction, it skips to the
loading value at the next positive count pulse and continues to count from there.
– You can also count above the lower counting limit.
ƒ
For stopping the counting process the internal gate has to be closed.
