A12 – ICM-42100 (-I100)
Description
The ICM-42100 (-I100) option resides inside the DMC-40x0 enclosure and accepts sinusoidal encoder signals in
addition to standard, differential quadrature encoder signals
1
. The -I100 board can provide interpolation for up to
four 1 V
pk-pk
differential sinusoidal encoders resulting in a higher position resolution. The AF command is used to
select the degree of interpolation, see AF in the command reference for more details.

NOTE
Rev B (Rev 1) and newer boards accept quadrature signals but they
must
be differential.
Rev A (Rev 0) ICM-42100 boards
only
accept Sin/Cos feedback and does not accept quadrature at all.
See the
ID
command in the Command Reference for board identification.
With the ICM-42100, wiring either Sin/Cos
or
standard differential encoders on an axis will use the same pins, see
ICM-42100 Encoder 15 pin HD D-Sub Connector (Female), pg 271 for pin-outs. In addition the -I100 board provides
access to much of the I/O of the controller, see Connectors for ICM-42100 Interconnect Board, pg 269 for a
complete listing.
