How to Set Up a Roller Speed Monitor with 1734-vhc Module and Proximity Sensor

Question:

As a newcomer to programming, I am eager to set up a monitoring system to track the speed of a roller. I am contemplating using the 1734-vhc module in conjunction with a proximity sensor to measure the rotation rate of the roller based on a hex bolt attached to the shaft. Is this setup feasible for my project?

You can easily achieve this in the HSC module by setting it up for frequency instead of counts and then adjusting the frequency to match your desired speed units. This simple process allows you to customize the data input to suit your specific needs.

When configuring the module, these are the available options presented to me. Is it advisable to utilize the rate measurement feature? Thank you for your prompt response.

Yes, measuring rates of interest

Fantastic! I definitely plan on giving this a try. Much appreciated!
