The members of this product family are really multitalented, feature up to three presets and can be connected up using plug-and-play connectors. They allow very high counting frequencies of up to 60 kilohertz and are universally suitable for use as pulse-counters, tachometers, timers, shift or batch counters. The large multi-coloured 6-digit display is backlit and easy to read. The device is additionally equipped with an RS 232 port to enable rapid, easy configuration via the PC and allows communication from the device to the computer.
