Key Applications and Projects

• Automated Length Cutting: Monitoring the travel of metal rods or textile fabrics and triggering a cutter at precise intervals.

• Packaging Line Counting: Tallying units on a conveyor belt and activating a sorter or batch alarm once the set quantity is achieved.

• Material Winding: Tracking the diameter or total length of wire or cable rolls during industrial spooling.

Unlock New Capabilities (Project Evolution)

• Logic Upgrade: Use the Scaling Factor in the settings to automatically convert raw pulses into meters, inches, or total units directly on the display.

• Safety Upgrade: Set OUT1 as a "Pre-alarm" to slow down high-speed machinery before the OUT2 relay executes the final stop to prevent mechanical overshoot.

Package Includes: 

• 1 x CY7 Intelligent High-Frequency Counting Meter (72x72mm)

• 2 x Panel Mounting Clips

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

1. What is the panel size? It has a standard industrial 72mm x 72mm front panel.

2. What size cutout do I need? The required panel opening size is 67mm x 67mm.

3. Does it support both NPN and PNP sensors? Yes, the signal input terminal can be wired for either NPN or PNP standard sensors.

4. How many presets can it handle? It supports two independent set values linked to two different relay outputs.

5. Can I reset the count remotely? Yes, there is a dedicated rear terminal for a remote wired reset switch.

6. What does the "LOCK" light mean? It indicates the front panel keys have been locked to prevent unauthorized changes to the set values.

7. Does it display the set value constantly? Yes, the bottom green LED line shows your "Default Value" at all times for easy reference.

8. What voltage does the counter operate on? It typically operates on standard 110V–220V AC mains power.

9. Can it power my encoder? Yes, the counter provides a 12V DC power output (Terminal 4) to power your sensors or encoders.

10. What is the "Shift Key" for? It allows you to move the cursor between digits when programming the set values.

11. How fast can it count? It is a high-frequency meter capable of processing high-speed pulse streams from rotary encoders.

12. What happens when the set value is reached? The corresponding relay (OUT1 or OUT2) triggers, and the indicator light on the front panel turns on.

13. Is the display easy to read? Yes, it uses high-contrast 6-digit LED displays for visibility in industrial lighting.

14. How deep is the unit? The body depth is 71mm, requiring approximately 75mm of clearance behind the panel.

15. Can I use it for bi-directional counting? Yes, when used with an AB-phase rotary encoder, it can add and subtract counts based on direction.

16. How do I change settings? Press the "MD" (Mode) button to enter the programming menu and adjust parameters like scaling and relay behavior.

17. What are Terminal 8 and 9 used for? These are for the working power supply input.

18. Can I use mechanical contact switches? Yes, but you must set the counting speed to a lower setting (e.g., 30 cps) to prevent switch bounce from causing false counts.

19. What is the "Addend Key"? It is used to increment the value of the selected digit during programming.

20. Is this suitable for length measurement? Absolutely; when paired with an encoder and measuring wheel, it is a primary tool for industrial length tracking.
