The UITerminal is used to connect all universals inputs ( i.e. analog and digital inputs). The UI Terminal function block reads the directly wired switches and sensors (connected to the blue UIx terminals on the controller).
The counter indicates the total number of pulses (rising edge followed by falling edge is one pulse) on the UI terminal since the last reset of the controller due to power-up or reset. After power-up and reset, the Output value is equal to Null which indicates that previous count values have been lost. The counter starts with the first pulse (rising edge followed by falling edge is one pulse) with the value 0 and then it counts up to 2147483647. After that it overflows to the value 1 on the very next pulse input and counts up again as just described.
The Boolean Input In Reset resets the counter to Null, as long as it is set to TRUE. When Input : In Reset is set to FALSE, the counter starts counting as described above with the value 1.

Example: Connection of an external 0-10V or 2-10V sensor on UI1
When connecting a 0-10V sensor to the sensor input UI_1 of the controller, the 0-10V signal from the sensor is connected to the UI terminal and the common or neutral wire is connected to the GND terminal
With a large hardware version of the unitary MS/TP controller, the sensor can be connected to terminal 47-UI1 and 49-GND, with the small hardware version to terminal 34-UI1 and 35-GND.
On the onboard IO Wiresheet, 0-10Volt or 2-10Volt is selected at the UI terminal.

This option instructs the controller to turn off the bias voltage internally. As a result, the UI terminal no longer receives voltage from the controller. The voltage from the external 0-10 V sensor is then received by the controller. For 0 - 10 V or 2 - 10 V, the function block returns a value of 0 - 100 %.
External 0 - 10 V sensors always require their own power supply, which is usually external.
If the sensor's external power supply is 24 VAC, the 24 VAC can be obtained from a 30 V controller. The unitary MSTP controller includes a 20 VAC - 30 VAC transformer and outputs the 22 VAC voltage at two terminals.
If you connect something, please keep in mind the maximum current consumption specified on the data sheet.
Example: The large hardware version of the unitary MSTP controller outputs the 22 VAC voltage at terminals 5-24 V and 6-24 V. When using a 24 VAC controller, it is best to get the voltage directly from the transformer that also powers the controller.
