Or it is needed to connect only one fast input with one counter to have fast counter? To put in another way: are fast counters binded to input or also to logic in PLC so only three can be used? I'm using 0BA7.

On the LOGO! 0BA6 about 100, ore even more I know that I can use, but my question is: every counter connected to one fast input will be counted with max 5khz no matter how many of them will be connected? Or maybe only first one can be fast counter and rest will be slow counters (counted by logic)?

Best regards Betel
