How to count number of pulses in a signal in Simulink

I have a signal (containing pulses) comming out of an encoder of a motor. I want to count the number of pulses present in the signal. The objective is to read the speed of the motor using encoder data. So, i am counting pulses, which i will be using to calculate the speed of motor. Please let me know How can I do this is simulink?

I used "Detect Increase" block, but it does't give me count for number of pulses. Since pulses are in large number so I can not count it manualy.

Hi,

I used 'encoder' block from 'simulink support packege for arduino'. The block is available in the versions 2021b and above.

Thanks

But does that count the number of pulses?.

Yes, It does, You need to judiciously choose the sampling time in that block.
