Monitor Block Display for a High-speed Counter Block
For a High-speed Counter block, the Monitor
Block function displays a sequence of screens with
the following information:
1. The states of the block’s four Preset Outputs.
2. The states of the block’s Control Inputs.
3. The current values of the block’s internal data
storage registers: Accumulator, Counts per
Timebase, and Strobe.
The exact appearance and sequence of screens
depends upon whether the block has been set up
for four-counter (Type A), two-counter (Type B), or
one-counter (Type C) operation. The letter a, b, or
c on the top line of the screen shows how the
block is set up.

The screen’s bottom line shows the current state of
each Control Input.

counter ’s accumulator, Counts-per-Timebase
register, and Strobe register(s):

Use the F1 ( > ) key to display the strobe value(s),
and additional values appropriate to the counter
type. For more detailed instructions for using a
