Encoder-Interface

If the encoder provides a digital (BISS-C) interface AND an analogue Sine/Cosine interface, it must be connected to X11/ X21 of the AX5000.

If the encoder provides digital (BISS-C) signals only, the option card AX572x is required and the encoder must be connected to X41/ X42.

Please note:

  • Default clock frequency for the pure digital BISS-C interface is 5MHz. If you want to use a digital encoder that requires lower clock frequencies, there are certain restrictions. Please see below chapter "Restrictions for Clock Frequency" for details.
  • X11/ X21 will output more clock edges than necessary to read the position telegram. With some encoders this will cause problems.
