Operation
2) When special analog adapters and FX3U/FX3UC Series special function units/blocks are used
*1. When an index register is added to a counter number specified by a HSCS, HSCR, HSZ or HSCT instruction,
all hardware counters are switched to software counters.
*2. The high-speed counters C244 (OP) and C245 (OP) can count up to 10 kHz.
3. Calculation of the total frequency
Total frequency
≥
Sum of "Response frequency of high-speed counter
×
Magnification for calculating total frequency"
4. Calculation example
When only HSZ instruction is used 6 times in a program, the total frequency and response frequency are calculated as
follows in accordance with the columns for "When only HSZ instruction is used" shown above.
This calculation example is provided for a system configuration not including special analog adapters and FX
3U/FX3UC
Series special function units/blocks.

4 kHz {40 − 6(times)} ÷ 4 = 8.5 kHz × 4
1) The total frequency is calculated as follows because HSZ instruction is used 6 times:
Total frequency = 80 − 1.5 × 6 = 71 kHz
2) The sum of the response frequencies of the high-speed counters
being used is calculated as follows:
"30 kHz × 1[C237]" + "20 kHz × 1[C241]" + "4kHz × 4[C253(OP)]" = 66 kHz ≤ 71 kHz
