2–4 Installing the Very High-Speed Counter Module

The VHSC module has user-selectable jumpers for each input
channel. These jumpers consist of one each:

filter or high speed operation jumper

+5V or +12-24V operation jumper

Each counter has a total of 6 jumpers associated with it:

Channel A filter/high speed jumper

Channel A voltage jumper

Channel B filter/high speed jumper

Channel B voltage jumper

Gate/reset filter/high speed jumper

Gate/reset voltage jumper

These jumpers can be set independent of each other. You can select
the filter action and voltage for each channel and for the gate/reset
input independently.

The high speed operation is the preferred mode of operation for the
1771-VHSC module. Use this mode when the inputs are driven by
devices such as encoders or line drivers.

Use the filter mode on the inputs when a mechanical switch is
providing the input. The filter provides de-bouncing for the
mechanical switch. The frequency of counting must be less than
100Hz when the filter mode is selected.

Use these jumpers to match the operation of the module with the
input supplied. Settings are shown in Figure 2.2.

To set the jumpers, proceed as follows:

1. Remove the four screws securing the side cover to the module

and remove the covers.

2. Using your fingers, reposition the jumpers associated with each

input channel according to your requirements. Refer to
Figure 2.2.
