Function:

The counter status for the counter of channel A can be set via the communication object "A Count."
Due to the difference of “counter B minus counter A,” in practical terms this is the counter for the people leaving the room or zone.

The counter status for the counter of channel B can be set via the communication object "B Count."
Due to the difference of “counter B minus counter A", in practical terms this is the counter for the people entering the room or zone.

CRW

Function:

Via the communication object "A Start value” the starting value of the counter of channel A is set.

The starting value of the counter of channel B is set via the communication object "B Start value."

Based on these two determinations of the counter readings, the first difference at the beginning of the counting process is determined.

Availability:

The "A Start value” and "B Start value” communication objects are displayed if the following configurations have been made:

  • Parameter "Function channels A + B” on the "device settings” parameter card
    • Setting: “Pairwise
  • Parameter "Function channels” on the “functions, objects” parameter card
