I have now got the card working with it giving me a shaft frequency in 2:I.PresentData and an encoder count in 2:I.StoredData. Both the A+ and A- channels are wired. Find attached a copy of the module configuration to assist Module Properties for 1734 VHSC24_2.docx

I'm still not having any success with this counter module, I now have both the Link and Module lights on. The encoder is configured HTL/push pull 1024 ppr. both the A+ and A- are wired to the module, the A light comes on intermittently when the motor starts to rotate and stays on no visible sign of pulsing and sometimes stays on when the motor has stopped. I think I have the module configuration wrong, I am trying to achieve a shaft speed from the encoder.  Advice on the correct configuration would be most welcome?

Hi Ken, Yes the two lights are the module status and network status , I'm trying to get a shaft speed form the encoder I've wire up  a single phase A+ to input A and power UB and GND to the +Vaux and -Vaux. Attached is the datasheet for the encoder.  Should I be using a simpler point I/O card? 0900766b812f7c25.pdf

I am using a Studio 5000 V29 to program a 1769-L18ER-BB1B PLC, part of the program involves feedback from an encoder which is connected to a 1734 VHSC24/C point I/O card. I've download to the PLC configured the I/O and updated firmware and EDS files, the PLC is running without any errors and the VHSC card has two green light lit . But when I look in the Controller Tags for the project none of the registers for the VHSC card are change when the encoder is rotating. I have never use this point I/O card before so have no experience configuring and coding , Do I have to use the GET command to retrieve #101?
