13.1 Configure motor encoder
13.1.1 Steps for configuring motor encoder:
1. In the Explorer tree, select Motor Encoder.
2. Select Encoder combination:
Encoder
Hall
Motor encoder
analog
none
Encoder with sine signals (1Vpp, 5V supply)
digital
none
Encoder with square-wave signals (TTL, 5V supply)
analog
digital
Encoder combination: Encoder with sine signals (1Vpp, 5V supply)
and digital Hall sensor box (12V supply), with SHL03

3. Select Linear encoder, then enter Resolution:
Encoder type
Encoder interpolation
Encoder resolution (µm)
Resolution* (mm)

NOTE: *Resolution drive parameter is defined as follows:
• analog encoder: 1-sine period, drive then interpolates up to maximum 13-bits (8192)
• digital encoder: 1-square wave, drive then evaluates the 4-quadrants (=Encoder resolution)
