Productivity Series Frequently Asked Questions
Question
What is the speed of DC inputs for the PAC modules if I want to use them to count pulses? Can they be used like the High-Speed inputs on the 05/06?
Answer
The response time is given for each of the modules, and it's basically the same time as DirectLogic hardware.However, the scan time of the P series CPU is so much faster, that the inputs can be used into a counter, up to 200 times per sec (200 Hz). This is still not close to the 5 Khz range for the 05/06 inputs in HSI mode, but it is great improvement over standard DL inputs.
