Tamagawa
The TJ1-FL02 can interface directly to Tamagawa “SmartAbs” absolute
encoders. Tamagawa encoders respond on a dedicated 2.5 MHz RS485
serial interface when their position is requested by the controller. When you
set the encoder to the relevant encoder mode, the axis transmits an
information request to the encoder on a fixed 250
μ
s cycle. The data
returned is available to BASIC and you can use it to drive a servo motor.

Note
The TJ1-FL02 does not have a termination inside. In case of long
distances or disturbed communication, add an external termination
to the TJ1-FL02.
