CHAPTER
1: I
NTRODUCTION
Absolute encoders provide position data without referencing to a mechanical home. For every
position a unique binary word is generated.
In single-turn absolute encoders, words are repeated for every revolution of the
encoder’s shaft. In
multi-turn absolute encoders, words are unique for every position, through multiple rotations of the
shaft.
For both single and multi-turn encoders, the resolution of a single-turn, and the number of turns,
are programmable. The total number of bits is limited to 32.
The encoder selection and configuration examples in this guide use Copley Controls’ CME 2
commissioning software. For more detailed information see data sheets for encoders and Copley
drives.
