PCI 4‑channel 24‑bit up/down counter board with differential line receiver or TTL input selection per channel. Counts 2‑phase (rotary encoder) or single‑phase signals. Count match interrupt and one‑shot output. Programmable timer for periodic interrupts.
The CNT24‑4D(PCI)H provides four 24‑bit up/down counter channels on a PCI board. It supports differential line receiver or TTL‑level input selection per channel. Counts 2‑phase (quadrature) or single‑phase signals from rotary encoders, linear scales, and other pulse sources.
Flexible input selection — each channel can be independently configured for differential or TTL‑level input via software. Count match events can generate interrupts and/or output pulses.
