5.3.2 How to Set and to Trigger Counters
Illustration 8 – Counter Modes
Field Width
This define how many digits the counter should have. If it is set to, for
example, 3 digits, the counter will count from 0 to 999. After that it resets
to 0 again.
Be aware that the reset and trigger value must be "in range”. In this
example, use a value before counter 1000, because 1000 will never
be reached.
We recommend the use of higher numbered digits for a lower level, and a
lower number of digits for a higher level. For example, if there are many
pages in just a few chapters, 6 digits should be chosen for the Page
Counter, and 2 digits for the Chapter Counter.
If a counter – including the automatic Page Counter A - has a field
width of zero, this counter will not be incremented and interpreted.
The Sequential ID will be incremented always as expected.
Increment Value (by a
certain value)
As a reaction to an event, the corresponding counter will be incremented
by the entered value. For example, the chapter counter can be
incremented while the page counter is at reset value.
