Vm147 panel counter module

Hi,

Firstly, I would like to know if this module VM147 could be installed on a Coil Winding Machine about 1500 r.p.m to record and count the number of turns.

Secondly, can a Non-Contact Device, for example, a reflective Opto switch sensor could be used to sense the CW or the CCW rotational movement of the Coil Winding Machine main driving axle?

Finally, does Velleman have an input peripheral device or kit or circuit diagram to replace the mechanical switches (Count Up and Count Down switches)?

Hope to have very helpful, informative and descriptive technical details.

Thank in advance for your valued advice(s).

1500 rpm equals 25Hz counting freq. Well within range of the VM147
As long as the sensor device is equipped with an open collector output, it can be connected to the VM147. Otherwise, an extra transistor might be necessary.
Sorry, no input peripheral devices.
