Counter Clock Performance can measure the clock speed at witch it can
operate continuously.
The period during which the clock speed specified in advanced is strictly
adhered to is displayed in the elapsed time.
1. Enter or select the specified value for the item in the setting parameters.
2. Press the "Measure Start" button to start measurement according to the set parameters.
3. Press the "Measure Stop" button to stop measurement.
4. Press the "Close" button to exit Counter Clock Performance.

Setting Parameters |
Device Name |
Select device to measure. You can select device registered in Device Manager. |
Number of Channels |
Any integer number more than 1(one). You can enter up to the maximum number of channels for the specified device. If the value exceeds the maximum number of channels, an error will occur during measurement. |
|
Start Clock |
Any integer number more than 1(one). Specify the clock in nano sec. If the value outside the settable range is specified, an error will occur during measurement. |
|
NG Addition Clock |
Any integer number more than 1(one). Specify the value to be added to the starting clock when an error occurs. |
|
Buffer Size |
Any integer number more than 1(one). Please specify it in units of [Scan Times]. |
|
Event Occurrence Interval |
Any integer number more than 1(one). Please specify it in units of [Transfer Times]. |
|
Measurement Information |
Current Clock |
(Cannot be specified) At the start of measurement, the "Start Clock" is displayed. If an error occurs, the current clock that reflects the "NG Addition Clock" is displayed. |
Elapsed Time |
(Cannot be specified) The elapsed time from the start of measurement is displayed. If an error occurs, the elapsed time reverts to 00:00:00. |
|
Event Occurrence Count |
(Cannot be specified) Displays the number of events that have occurred since the start of measurement. |
