11.1. Pulse Counter Modes

There are three possible modes of a pulse counter:

  • Free Run Mode – pulses are counted until maximum number of pulses (16,777,215) is reached;

  • Time Based Mode – pulses are counted only during user-defined time period;

  • Pulse Based Mode – pulses are counted until user-defined number of pulses is detected.

The modes can be selected in Bits 7..4: PLS_CNT_MODE of Byte 3 of GPIO_SET_PLS_CNT_CFG command.
