Incremental encoder input settings
Depending on the type of encoder used (15 V or 5 V encoder), switches S1 and S2 must be
set on the module corresponding to the following table.
Each track (A/VW, B/RW, N/-) of a channel has a switch that can be used to set the
appropriate encoder type:
●
Switch open (OFF):
15 V encoder, switching threshold 7 V
●
Switch closed (ON):
5 V encoder, switching threshold 0 V
All tracks (A/VW, B/RW, N/-) of a channel must have the same switch setting for operation.
Note
If you are using a TTL incremental encoder you must note that you cannot switch the control
input to TTL signals. The control input only reacts to a HTL level.
