Configure Counters 0…7

The configuration of counters 0…7 defines the following:

The number of pulses over which to calculate average frequency

The frequency time-out value

Whether the On/Off windows use accumulated count, instantaneous

frequency, or average frequency for output control

Window On/Off, preset, and rollover values

Whether to enable filtering for a counter

You can configure most of the above values on the Counter Configuration tab of
the Module Properties dialog box. However, window On/Off, rollover, and
preset values must be defined in the module’s output tags.
