Input Sensor Types
offers three modes: Normal, Inverse, and Latched. The measurements
taken with digital input types are 1 (ON) or 0 (OFF).
When a quadrature Encoder unit is read using the AX023241 controller, both digital inputs should
be connected to read the signals generated by the quadrature Encoder unit. Both inputs need to be
configured as one of the Quadrature Encoder input types, Step Count (2100h – ‘0’), Direction (2100h
– ‘1’) or Speed (2100h – ‘2’), measured as RPM).

Pullup / Pulldown Resistor Options
In all
Input Sensor Types:
Digital and Quadrature Encoder types, the user has the option of three
(3) different pull up/pull down options as listed in
Table 4

The pullup resistor will create a 1 (ON) value when the input is floating. Since it is placed in
Digital
(Inverse),
this value will be considered as OFF. Once the input is grounded this will create a 0 (OFF)
but since the input is
Digital (Inverse)
this be considered as ON.

Input Software Filter Types
All input types can be filtered using
Filter Type
and
Filter Constant
objects 61A0h and 61A1h.
There are three (3) filter types available as listed in
Table 5
