Use to

Minimum Frequency Sampling Time

6, 16, 26, 36

determine the minimum frequency and maximum sample time. All

sample times are based on the time between F0 or F2 pulses.
If Bandwidth Limit is OFF (= 0), Minimum Frequency Sampling

Time is not used.

Bandwidth Limit

5, 15, 25, 35 (bit 14)

control the maximum time the CFM module spends calculating

a frequency and the minimum frequency that can be read by

the CFM module.
If ON: limits the maximum time period to

2 x Minimum Frequency Sampling Time and minimum

frequency to 1/Minimum Frequency Sampling Time.

Frequencies < 1/Minimum Frequency Sampling Time

are reported as stopped.
If OFF: maximum time period is 3s, minimum frequency is 1Hz

and direction can be sensed to 1/3Hz.

Minimum Frequency Sampling Time is not used.

Acceleration Calculation Time

5, 15, 25, 35 (bits 00Ć09)

specify the number of frequency samples the CFM module will

spend to calculate the acceleration value. The default value (0)

will calculate a rolling average of the previous

five samples. Since the actual frequency sample time may

vary, so does the Acceleration Calculation Time.

Acceleration Alarm

9, 19, 29, 39

determine the acceleration value that, if exceeded, will activate

the BTR Acceleration Alarm (word 4 & 5, bits 00 & 08).

RANGE: 0Ć32,767
The CFM module will not calculate an acceleration if

this acceleration value is zero.

Frequency Multiplier/Divisor

10, 20, 30, 40

scale the returned frequency and acceleration to actual

engineering units.

Frequency Multiplier must be < Frequency Divisor.

For each value RANGE: 1Ć255 DEFAULT: 1
The scaled frequency/acceleration value can not be used to

trigger any outputs (outputs triggered by frequency/acceleration

are triggered by actual frequency/acceleration).

Highest Allowable Frequency

8, 18, 28, 38

specify the highest frequency value allowed on the input

channel. When this value is exceeded, the input channel's

overspeed alarm will activate.
