CODE 45 - COUNTER (B) SCALE MULTIPLIER

There are four Counter B Scale Multipliers that are available. They effectively

divide the internal Count B value by 1, 10, 100, and 1000 respectively, to yield

the displayed Counter B value. Note: Use of a small scale multiplier in

conjunction with a small Scale Factor could cause the internal count value to be

exceeded before the 6-digit display value is exceeded. See “Programming the

Presets, Scale Factors, Timed Outputs & Counter Load Values” section for

more details.

CODE 46 - COUNTER (B) DECIMAL POINT & LEADING

ZERO BLANKING

There are six basic modes of decimal point placement for the counter of the

Gemini. The decimal point is placed to the right of the display digit that

corresponds to the mode identifier. (The right most decimal point, digit 1, is

never turned on.) A “-” sign in front of the mode identifier will inhibit leading

zero blanking. The absence of a “-” sign will enable leading zero blanking.

CODE 51 - OUTPUT ASSIGNMENT

The output(s) of the Gemini 4000 can be assigned to either the rate or count

channel. Assigning the output(s) to the rate [51 3] will automatically configure

the “Counter (B) Reset Mode” to Reset to Zero, [56 1].

The Gemini 4200 has a Preset tracking feature which allows Preset 1 to track

Preset 2. If Preset tracking is programmed, whenever the Preset 2 value is

changed, the Preset 1 value will also change to maintain the same offset. For

example, if Preset 1 is 100 and Preset 2 is 200, changing Preset 2 to 300 will

automatically change Preset 1 to 200, maintaining same 100 unit offset. In order

to change the amount of offset, the Preset 1 value is changed. The Preset tracking

feature is programmed by adding a “-” modifier in front of the desired mode.

[51 1] OUTPUT 1 ASSIGNED TO RATE (A), OUTPUT 2 TO COUNTER

(Gemini 4200 only)

[51 2] OUTPUTS 1 & 2 ASSIGNED TO COUNTER (B)

[51 3] OUTPUTS 1 & 2 ASSIGNED TO RATE (A)

[51 -1]

[51 -2]

These modes are identical with the exception

[51 -3]

that Preset Tracking is enabled.

CODE 52 - OUTPUT 1 TERMINATION MODES

The Gemini has six “Output 1 Termination Modes” which control the way

Output 1 will terminate or reset. In all modes, Output 1 will terminate

immediately when the channel to which it is assigned is manually reset.

For the Gemini 4200, the Output 1 termination modes 1 & 2 are available only

when both outputs are assigned to the Counter (B), [51 2].

A reverse phase mode is available on the Gemini. This refers to the

complementing of the logic state of the output. With normal phase operation,

when the display value reaches Preset 1, Output 1 will turn on. The reset

condition of Output 1 is output off. In reverse phase operation, Output 1 turns off

when the Preset 1 Value is reached. The reset condition of Output 1 is output on.

(Note: The state of the relay, if used, is also reversed.) A “-” sign in front of the

mode identifier will provide for reverse phase operation. The absence of a “-”

sign will indicate normal phase operation.
