Local measuring
Introduction
With local measuring inputs, the measuring input is assigned as part of its configuration. The
configuration specifies the number of the measuring input to be used and the number of the
encoder on the assigned axis (PROFIdrive).
5.3.6.1
Local measuring on C230-2, C240 (not C240 PN)
With a signal edge at the relevant M1 or M2 input, the current actual values of one or more
encoders connected to the onboard encoder interfaces (X3 to X6) are measured with
positioning accuracy to determine lengths or distances.
The assignment of inputs is not fixed; the special use is activated in the SCOUT engineering
system during configuration of the measuring input via the measuring input number.
Note
As the C240 PN has no onboard encoder interfaces, it has no local inputs of measuring inputs.
5.3.6.2
Local measurement on D4xx, D410-2, D4x5-2 (X122/X132), CX32, CX32-2, CU310,
CU310-2, CU320 and CU320-2
If you connect a local measuring input TO to the measuring inputs of D4xx, D410-2, D4x5-2
(X122/X132), CX32, CX32-2 and CU310, CU310-2, CU320 and CU320-2, you will have to set
the following parameters (PROFIdrive):
● Parameter p488 on the associated drive for one local measuring input
● Parameters p488 and p489 on the associated drive for two local measuring inputs
● Parameters p728.8 - p728.15 on the control unit as inputs for all DI/DO used as measuring
inputs (these settings can also be made using a parameterization mask)
5.3.6.3
Local measuring on other drives (MASTERDRIVES MC, SIMODRIVE 611U, etc.)
With SIMOTION, the measuring input is assigned as part of its configuration. The configuration
specifies the number of the measuring input to be used and the number of the encoder on the
assigned axis.
Please refer to the documentation for the respective drive system for details of any additional
settings which may be required.
