You need to post your code so we can look at it. -

How long are you wanting to energize for? For that single full minute? If so, why are you using the OTL? The OTE would make it true for that minute only. -

Glad I could help.

Study on parameter P046, that is your command source, and P047, that is your speed reference.

Are they brand new out of the box? If so turn the potentiometer to the right and hit the green button the the keypad.

Did the system used to work without faulting? It usually means there is a grounding problem but if a system has been working for years and suddenly gets this then it could be a PLC going bad.
-
A basic converter probably won't work. They usually will have capacitors to help them smooth out the ripples that the high speed counter senses. You need something like a optocoupler. Maybe something like this. https://www.phoenixcontact.com/online/portal/us?urile=pxc-oc-itemdetail:pid=2964270&library=usen&tab=1

Probably cheapest to get a 24V hall effect sensor. Transformers don't work with DC applications though there are isolators that may work. It will depend on the sensor as to whether you need or what value the pull up resistor needs to be.

The Micrologix 1400 inputs are 24VDC, 6 volt won't work. What is the maximum voltage of your sensor?

He's pretty sharp so if he said only pin 3 is missing then he is probably right. If you are sure the DF1 driver settings match what I showed in the lesson then I can only think of three things. The UIC is bad (not likely), the C13 pinout is incorrect ( ohm it out) or the SLC port is faulty.
-
It is missing at least two. I haven't used the white UIC in many years but in if then prevents 24V from damaging the UIC. I will do some searching for that pinout.
-
If it shows 19.2 then stick with working on it. Do you have 1747-C13 or did you make your own? Compare your settings to what is shown on the DF1 driver at the following link. https://www.theautomationstore.com/how-to-configure-the-1747-uic/

Does the channel configuration in RsLogix 500 show 9600?
