Ken/Dirk,

Not to beat a dead horse, but you could use PLB logic in the FBM241 to avoid
the CP BPC issue.  Pulse capture resolution (using PLB counters) is then up
to the processing speed of the PLB logic (5-10msec?) and the actual FBM
hardware/software...

Regards,
Doug

Hi Ken,

OK ths confirm's the 241 is not suitable for our purpose. We'll use a 207
instead.

Thanks

The thing that's probably missing here is that FBM241 is a discrete I/O
module. The I/O resolution is subject to the CP's BPC. If you are running
100ms then your minimum reliable "capture" of those pulses is possibly 5 or
less per second.

Hi Terry,

Couldn't find anything in the PSS either, that's why I asked, maybe someone
knows the rate or had experience with it.
I'll probably buy a 207 card, I need approx. 10pulse/sec ( 10hz)

Joe,

I have plenty of 241's in stock, but no 207/206 and I don't need very high
frequency pulses so I was wondering if a 241 could handle that. Probably
not, otherwise they wouldn't have developed a 207/206 :-) Too bad, no
savings today.....

thanks

Dirk

Dirk,
The PSS for the FBM241 does not contain any information regarding the pulse
rate or duration (timing) of the ON or the OFF state.  Not sure if I have
the latest PSS.  You may want to check.  I would only use it for slow
changing signals as in ON for many seconds or OFF for many seconds.
The FBM206 and FBM207 are the recommended IO for pulse input signals.
