32-03 Absolute Resolution
ENCODERABSRES
Range
1 … MLONG
¾
8192
Function
The encoder resolution is used to calculate velocity
in RPM (rounds per minute).
Set the resolution of the absolute encoder
connected to Encoder 2 interface (X55) in positions
per revolution. Encoder resolution can be found on
encoder nameplate or datasheet.

32-05 Absolute Encoder Data Length
ENCODERDATLEN
Range [Unit]
8 – 37 [Bit]
¾
25
Function
Specify the number of data bit’s for the connected
absolute encoder, see encoder data sheet. This is
required for MCO 305 to generate the correct
number of clock bit’s.
Note: Parameter only visible when par. 32-02

32-06 Absolute Encoder Clock Frequency
ENCODERFREQ
Range [Unit]
78.125 – 2000.000 [kHz]
¾
262.000
Function
Specifies the frequency of the absolute encoder
clock signal generated by MCO 305. Set a frequen-
cy appropriate for the connected encoder.

32-07 Absolute Encoder Clock Generation
ENCODERCLOCK
Option
Off
[0]
¾
On
[1]
Function
Select whether encoder 0 shall generate an
absolute encoder clock signal or not.
Select
Off
[0] if more MCO 305’s are connected to
the same absolute encoder. Only one device (MCO
305) is allowed to generate the clock signal and
only one device (encoder or MCO 305) is allowed to
generate the data signal when multiple MCO 305’s
are interconnected.
Select
On
[1] if the MCO 305 is connected to just
one absolute encoder.
Note: Parameter only visible when par. 32-02
z
0
32-08 Absolute Encoder Cable Length
ENCODERDELAY
Range [Unit]
0 – 300 m
¾
0
Function
The absolute encoder (SSI) clock and data signals
will be out of synchronization if the signal delay
caused by the encoder cable is too long. MCO 305
is automatically compensating the cable delay
when the cable length is known. The cable delay
compensation is based on a cable delay of approxi-
mately 6ns (6 * 10
-9
seconds) per meter.
Specify the total cable length (in meters) between
MCO 305 and the absolute encoder.

32-09 Encoder Monitoring
ENCODERMONITORING
Option

Channels
[1]
2
Channels
[1]
Function
Monitoring of open- and short-circuit of the enco-
der inputs can enabled or disabled.
Select
Off
[0] if hardware monitoring not is
required.
Select [1] if all 3 channels A,B, and Index should
be monitored.
Select [2] if 2 channels A,B should be monitored.
An encoder error will issue error code 192.
