pulse information must be generated per measuring unit. For example, if 5 pulses
are being received per foot of material, the precision of 10th of feet cannot be
attained by simply programming a Scale Factor of 2.0000, even though the
display is reading in 10ths. In this case, the display will increment by two for each
count input. Thus if an odd Preset Value was entered, such as 6.7 ft., the Gemini
will alter the preset to read in even tenths of feet.
Note: Use of a small Scale Factor in conjunction with a small scale multiplier
could cause the internal count value (counter) to be exceeded before the
6-digit display value is exceeded.
COUNTER LOAD VALUE
The Counter Load Value is provided to allow the user to modify the count
value. The Counter Load Value is reset to zero when the Gemini is powered up.
Once the Counter Load Value has been changed, it will remain set to that value
until the unit is powered down and up. Accessing the Counter Load Value for the
counter that is currently being displayed is accomplished by pushing the “E”
button, and while holding it down, also pushing the “+/-” button. See
“Programming the Presets, Scale Factors, Timed Outputs & Counter Load
Values” section for entering instructions.
