Configurable parameters
The EtherNet/IP technology allows for certain encoder parameters to be
configured over the network.
•

IP addressing
The electronic data sheet file
The electronic data sheet (EDS) file contains all the information related to the
measuring-system-specific parameters as well as the operating modes of the 842E
EtherNet/IP encoders. The EDS file is integrated using the EtherNet/IP
network configuration tool to configure and place in operation the 842E
EtherNet/IP encoder

search on “842E.”
Operating principle of the
encoder
Operating principle of the 842E EtherNet/IP encoder acquires the position of
rotating axes and outputs the position in the form of a unique digital numeric
value. Optical acquisition of the rotary position value is from an internal coded
disk.
The 842E-SIP-xxx EtherNet/IP is a singleturn encoder
Singleturn encoders are used if the absolute position of the shaft for one
revolution is required.
The 842E-MIP-xxxEtherNet/IP is a multiturn encoder
Multiturn encoders are used if the absolute position is required for more than one
shaft revolution.
Scalable resolution
The steps per revolution and the total resolution can be scaled and adapted to the
related application.
The steps per revolution can be scaled in integers from 1…32,767 (Basic) or from
1…262,144 (Advanced). The total resolution of the 842E-MIP Multi-turn
EtherNet/IP encoder must be 2H times the steps per revolution. This restriction
is not relevant if the round axis or endless shaft functionality is activated.
