Overview of the Frequency Input Module
Overview
This chapter provides a description of the application and capabilities of the
1794 FLEX I/O Frequency Input module. It also explains the general
algorithm for calculating frequency.
The FLEX System
FLEX I/O is a small, modular I/O system for distributed applications that
performs all of the functions of rack-based I/O. The FLEX system contains
the following components shown below:
• Adapter – transfers read and write configuration data to and from the
I/O module
• terminal base – contains a terminal strip to terminate wiring for two- or
three-wire devices
