The 3X registers (3X+1 through 3X+8) contain data and status information for channels 1

through 8. You can only set 3X register bits using ladder logic. This section describes the layout for
the status registers (3X+1 through 3X+8) and defines the bits. Ladder logic examples are provided
in chapter 4, “Programming.”

Enable Start/Stop Echo: Bit 16

This bit echoes the setting of the Counter Enable bit set in the channels control register. The

counter enable bit allows the counter to continue to count up or down from its present value. Start-
ing or enabling the counter with this bit will not override the external counter input. Both the exter-
nal input enable and the counter start bit must be enabled for the counter to continue counting. If
either the counter stop bit or the external input enable line are disabled the counter will hold its last
value and stop counting.
