Encoder
Two inputs are available for incremental encoders with encoder inputs A and B. Single-ended HTL signals are provided as the encoder connection.
These can optionally be combined with
- Latch and gate/latch inputs for setting, blocking and saving the counter value or
- a combination of two 24 VDC digital inputs/outputs.
The function of the inputs/outputs depends on the configuration of SlotGroup 1.
Two of the inputs can also be used as digital 24 VDC outputs, with a current carrying capacity of 0.5 A per channel.
Optionally, one of the outputs can be set when a defined counter value is reached. This allows an exact reaction time independent of the fieldbus cycle.
