Consider the possibility of the counter function requiring two contiguous bytes of memory. What happens when C234 is changed to C235, for example <rhetorical question - NNTR>?

Good eye! I saw the 251-3 skip, but the possible implication didn't register. I hope the OP does reply, so that we can know if this turns out to be the issue.

There are 2 type of High Speed counters: Software & Hardware types.

C251 & C253 are hardware HSC, using X0,X1 & X2,X3 respectively.

C233 & C234 are software SHSC using X4,X5 & X6,X7 respectively.

You cannot use the same input for 2 different counters. This will give syntax error when executing DCNT instructions.

Check that you did not double designate in the firdt place.

You should download the Operational manual-programming for the DVP-ES2_EX2...pdf. This will show you how to check the errors as well on the limitations for using the counters etc.
