Status Input diagnostics

If the encoder has an error signal or status output, this can be connected to the "Status Input" input of the terminal and evaluated. The input is 5 V compatible.

The error signal or status output at the encoder is usually implemented with negative logic. This is indicated by the terminal as follows:

Encoder

EL5131

Alarm output

Status Input
(0x60n0:06 "Status of input status")

Status Input LED

Meaning

HIGH level / output open

TRUE

Off

e.g. encoder OK

LOW level / PullDown - level is actively pulled down to LOW

FALSE

Red

e.g. encoder faulty

If an overvoltage is present at the Status Input, it is displayed as follows:
