Angle encoder connector [X2A] and [X2B]
The universal shaft encoder interface enables the connection of various types of feedback systems to the item Servo
Positioning Controller C 3-Series:
Resolvers (interface [X2A])
Encoders (interface [X2B])
Incremental encoders with analogue and digital track signals
SinCos encoders (single-turn/multi-turn) with HIPERFACE®
Multi-turn absolute encoders with EnDat
The encoder type can be defined via the item Motion Soft
parameterisation software.
The feedback signal is made available to any subsequent drives via the incremental encoder output [X11].
It is possible to evaluate two shaft encoder systems in parallel. Typically, the resolver for the current control is connected to
[X2A] and, for example, an absolute encoder to [X2B] as the feedback system for the positioning control.
