dir

  `public property bool dir [config, falseText="down", defaultOnClone, trueText="up"]`

  Configures direction. True = "up", False = "down"

enable

  `public property bool enable`

  enable input

  Presets the counter to a specific value, defaults to 0

r

  `public property bool r`

  if r is true, out = preset and no counting takes place

execute

  Execute is called once every scan. increment/decrement the count on rising edge of "in" if "enable" is true

reset
