Features:
- Hardware pulse capture: Counter channels follow field pulses beyond the normal cyclic-input task.
- Pulse-source flexibility: The input can be configured for the installed encoder or directional pulse arrangement.
- Defined coincidence event: A reached count can be exposed to the controller and a qualified external receiver.
QD62E belongs in a MELSEC-Q position where a machine needs a count or position event from a pulse source, rather than a simple on/off indication.
Its count value, status and commands pass through assigned I/O signals and buffer memory, making the module configuration part of the PLC application.
QD62E supplies count state and comparison results; the controller program and connected equipment determine the machine action that follows.

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- One-phase input: A single pulse stream supports accumulation where direction is supplied elsewhere or not required.
- Two-phase input: A/B pulses allow direction-sensitive counting when the encoder and wiring preserve their phase relationship.
- CW/CCW input: Separate directional pulse streams can be assigned to forward and reverse movement.
- Speed selection: The channel range is chosen for the actual pulse source, not copied from an unrelated encoder.
- Present count: The hardware counter maintains the running value used by the application.
- Coincidence comparison: A configured count point can produce a comparison result without waiting for the CPU scan.
- External event: The source-type transistor output carries the qualified coincidence result to a receiving circuit.
- Preset function: An external signal or program command can establish the count reference for the next cycle.
- I/O assignment: The MELSEC-Q project reserves the module position and its control/status signals.
- Buffer memory: Count values and function settings are exchanged with the CPU through module data areas.
- Program interpretation: The sequence must use the intended channel and comparison state rather than a similarly named tag.
- Counter state: Application logic should distinguish a valid running value from a counter error or stopped count.
- Encoder position tracking: Counts quadrature pulses for machine position or travel evidence.
- Length measurement: Converts roller or wheel pulses into material movement.
- Batch counting: Accumulates fast product or index events beyond normal scan timing.
- Speed monitoring: Uses pulse frequency to supervise rotating or linear equipment.
