Frequency output
The frequency output function supplies a frequency (50% duty cycle) proportional to the
selected process value.
Frequency is calculated as follows:
Example
This example shows how to calculate the output frequency for any measured flowrate:
Frequency output configuration:
126
Positive flow - channel 3 lags by 90°
Negative flow - channel 3 leads by 90°
Positive flow - channel 3 lags by 180°
Negative flow - channel 3 leads by 180°
