Hi all,
Is it possible to connect a simple 24vdc incremental rotary encoder to a standard Seimens S7-300 digital input module, use the pulses to increase a counter in the program, have the counter reset with the 0 pulse, and turn on and off an output when the counter is at a certain value. What I am trying to do is make a cam controller. Is this possible or should I use a high speed counter module like a FM350-1?
I have that is 5-26vdc line driver out (7272), differential, bidirection with index (AA BB ZZ), and a 1000ppr. The shaft turns between 60 and 70 rpm.
Thanks
