Encoder Inputs
The vision controller features four encoder inputs that can be used to connect to either a single-ended or differential
encoder. Using an encoder allows you to specify input and output delay values in pulse counts instead of real time units.
The encoder signals are buffered and sent to each DS1000 series sensor through the SENSOR ports. Refer to
for common wiring configurations.
Note
:
l
Non-quadrature, single-channel encoders are not supported.
l
The frequency of encoder pulses must not exceed 50 kHz.
