EP5151-000x - Introduction
EP5151-0002 | Incremental encoder interface with single-ended inputs
The EP5151-0002 EtherCAT Box is an interface for direct connection of incremental encoders with 24 V DC
inputs. A 32/16-bit counter with quadrature decoder as well as a 32/16-bit latch for the zero pulse can be
read, set or activated. A period measurement with a resolution of up to 100 ns is possible.
Due to the optional interpolating micro-increment function, the EP5151-0002 can supply even more precise
axis positions for dynamic axes. In addition to that it supports the synchronous reading of the encoder value
together with other input data in the EtherCAT system via high precision EtherCAT Distributed Clocks (DC).
The encoder is connected via an 8-pin M12 socket.
