TM200HSC206DT – Modicon M238 High‑Speed Counter Module

TM200HSC206DT high-speed counter for Modicon M238. 4 outputs, 12 inputs, 60 kHz, 1 ms cycle. Ideal for motion & frequency applications.

Product Overview – Oiltech Controls Insight

• Engineered for TM200HSC206DT – a dedicated counter module for M238 logic controllers.
• Delivers 60 kHz counting frequency with 31‑bit + sign resolution.
• Supports upcounting, downcounting, frequency meter, period measurement, and axis following.
• Cycle time of 1 ms ensures real‑time responsiveness for motion control.
• Compatible with incremental encoders (15‑30 V source outputs) and 2/3‑wire sensors.

Technical Core – Specifications

• Discrete I/O: 12 inputs (type 1) + 4 outputs (0.5 A per output).
• Input types: IN_A, IN_B, IN_SYNC, IN_CAP, IN_EN, IN_REF – all positive logic (sink).
• Output logic: Positive (source) with ≤200 µs response.
• Protection: Short‑circuit & overload (0.5‑1.5 A trip) with auto‑reset.
• Isolation: 1500 V between channels and internal logic (1 min).
• Fallback: Each channel holds last value or preset (0/1); faulty channel forced to 0.
• Load limits: Inductance L = 0.5/I²F, capacitance 50 µF.
• Current consumption: ≤100 mA (24 V internal), ≤100 mA (5 V), ≤2 A (24 V external).

Mounting & Physical Data

• Mounts on 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail (standard).
• 2 screw terminal blocks for secure wiring.
• Local signalling via 1 display block.
• Weight: 0.24 kg (0.53 lb).
• Country of origin: ID.

Compatible Systems & Devices

• Modicon M238 logic controller base (up to 3 counter modules per TM238 base).
• Incremental encoders with 15‑30 V source outputs.
• 2‑wire and 3‑wire proximity sensors (24 V DC).
• Motion control systems requiring high‑speed counting or frequency generation.
• Legacy and new automation systems that support Modicon M238.

Oiltech Controls Review – Selection Guide

• Choose TM200HSC206DT when you need 60 kHz counting with 4 discrete outputs.
• Ideal for frequency monitoring, position tracking, and high‑speed period measurement.
• For pure frequency generation or axis following, this module excels.
• Works with both sourcing sensors and incremental encoders – check voltage compatibility.
• If you require more than 3 counter modules, consider expanding the base.

Frequently Asked Questions (Expert Insights)

• Q1: Can this module count at 60 kHz with a 24 V encoder?
  A: Yes, it supports incremental encoders with 15‑30 V source outputs. Ensure shielded cable for noise immunity.
• Q2: What happens to outputs during a short‑circuit fault?
  A: The module has automatic reset after the fault disappears. Each output trips at 0.5‑1.5 A and recovers automatically.
• Q3: How do I set fallback behavior for a faulty channel?
  A: You can configure each channel to hold its last value or preset to 0/1. A faulty channel is forced to 0.
• Q4: Is this module compatible with M238 bases from older revisions?
  A: Yes, it fits any TM238 base that supports up to 3 counter modules. Always verify firmware for advanced modes.
• Q5: What cable type do you recommend for reliable counting?
  A: Use shielded twisted‑pair cable to minimize electrical noise – especially for runs over 5 meters.
