I have been messing around with the HSC but know matter what I do I cannot even get a count. The input is a prox located on a gearbox. One count per revolution. I have looked on the Siemens website, which is useless, and still can't get any numbers.

Hello;
Try the Siemens' website one more time, at:

"http://www4.ad.siemens.de/csinfo/li...ID=7620522&objaction=csview&lang=en&siteid=cs":http://www4.ad.siemens.de/csinfo/li...ID=7620522&objaction=csview&lang=en&siteid=cs

and request Document ID: 7620522. It will show you how to set-up the HSC inputs and how to configuere and program the different subroutines required. 2 notes: this will work with Microwin version 3.1.0.31; you don't need to buy the support file, you should have enough
info directly in the application note on the website.
Hope this helps,
Daniel Chartier

For Micro/Win V3.0 and later, use the "Instruction Wizard" under "Tools" menu and select "HSC". The wizard will prompt you for the necessary information. Very very simple.

If you have a version lower than 3.0, then upgrade it to V3.2! If you don't have time to upgrade, download a one-month-full-working version from Siemens website.

You can also make a search for "Tips and Tricks" in Siemens website "www4.ad.siemens.de":http://www4.ad.siemens.de , but they are for more extraordinary applications.

The HSC on the s7-200 is extremely simple once you have set it up and enabled it
I use them for positioning with shaft encoders. I think where you are getting stuck is in setting up the counter. Try loading one of the tricks and tips from the siemens site, or the help examples in step 7 micro win. When you have configured the counter don't forget to enable it with the relevant HSC instruction. - the manual is
really good at explaining this.

feel free to contact me for code fragments if you're still stuck
