    1. The STI can be used to calculate a rate value from the high speed counter inputs on MicroLogix controllers. 2. The example shows using a 1 second STI setpoint to calculate a rate in Hertz. The accumulated count is divided by the setpoint which is divided by 1000. 3. The high speed counter needs to be configured, such as in mode 6 for a quadrature encoder. Input filters may also need adjusted for high speed counting.
