Chassis 9172 8-slot Timer/Counter Module needed

[Flow_V]

We would like to read 3 pulse genetations (contact pulses) from different devices.

We have Chassis 9172 and we have been told to use the slot 5 or 6 for that purpouse. the manual says that we can read up to 2 pulses in the slot 5 or 6.

We would like to know if we can install the module 9435-4 inputs in one slot in this chassis.

Thanks

There are 2 counters on the 9172 backplane.  You can access them with the 9435 module in slot 5 or in slot 6.  You can access both counters with a single module (you don't need a module in both slot 5 and 6 to get both counters).  The 9435 does have 4 inputs but there are still only 2 counters on the backplane.

Best Regards,
