Quick start

Proceed as follows for standard commissioning of the EL5032 with EnDat 2.2 encoders.

  1. Install the EL5032 in the E-bus terminal strand on an EtherCAT coupler, e.g. EK1100 or EK1501.
  2. Connect the EnDat 2.2 encoder(s) according to the connection diagram (Data(+/-), Clock(+/-) and supply voltage).
    The encoders must support EnDat 2.2 and a clock frequency >= 8 MHz.
  3. Set up a correct EtherCAT configuration with the terminal.
    Since the device is present and is electrically reachable, the simplest way of accomplishing this is by scanning the devices.
  4. Activate the EtherCAT master and start the terminal in OP state.
    In the input variables the EL5032 must deliver State=8 and WC=0.
  5. Parameterize the CoE settings of the EL5032 according to the EnDat2.2 encoder data sheet.
  6. The data can now be read via the process data.
