Open Collector mode

Connection of Open Collector encoders without zero pulse in two-channel mode

Open Collector mode 1:Fig.38: Connection of encoders in Open Collector mode without zero pulse in two-channel mode
Open Collector mode 2:

Connection instructions

  • In Open Collector mode the inverse inputs are not connected.
  • Only encoders without zero pulse are suitable for use in two-channel mode. The terminal points for the C track are assigned the signals of the second A track.

Connection of Open Collector counters / pulse generators without zero pulse in two-channel mode

Open Collector mode 4:

Connection instructions

  • In Open Collector mode the inverse inputs are not connected.
  • If a counter / pulse generator is connected, the B track determines the counting direction.
    Input B̅ is not connected.
  • Only counters / pulse generators without zero pulse are suitable for use in two-channel mode. The terminal points for the C track are assigned the signals of the second A track.
