APC483: PCI Counter/Timer with Quadrature Board
Product short description:
- Four 16-bit TTL counters and four 32-bit RS422 counters
- Event counter
- Frequency measurement
- Quadrature position measurement
- Pulse-width or periodic rate monitor
- Watchdog timer with isolated relay output
Several models with a variety of configurations provide up to ten counter/timer channels for counting events, generating waveform control signals, measuring pulse-widths, periodic rates, or quadrature position and monitoring operations.
Support for internal or external triggering simplifies the synchronization of operations to specific events. Counter functions can use internally generated clocks or an externally supplied clock.

Description
Screw terminal panels simplify field signal wiring. A cable connector provides a clean interface to the I/O board or module.
Many termination panels have a compact footprint and mount neatly on a DIN rail strip. Other panels are designed for mounting directly onto a standard 19-inch computer rack.
All of Acromag’s I/O boards have a corresponding termination panel. This convenience saves you the time and hassle of finding a compatible panel or crafting your own.
