Average RPM

This MotoHawk™ block returns the Average RPM.

Block ID

motohawk_encoder_average_rpm

Library

MotoHawk_lib/Encoder Blocks

Description

 

This MotoHawk™ block returns the Average RPM with a data type of uint16. The value is calculated based upon the time taken to traverse adjacent RPM sample points. The Flexible Encoder allows the RPM Sample points to be specified. The RPM Sample points are set to the values for top-dead-center(TDC) if the encoder is not of the flexible encoder type. The RPM may not be accurate until encoder synchronization has been achieved and may read as zero. 

Block Parameters

Parameter Field	Values	Comments/Description
Output Resolution	Drop Down List	The default resolution is 1 RPM and the output data type is uint16. When the resolution is selected to be 1/256, the output is RPMx256 and the output port width will be uint32.
