Open Collector mode

Connection of Open Collector encoders with or without zero pulse

Open Collector mode 1:Fig.34: Connection encoder Open Collector mode with zero pulse
Open Collector mode 2:

Connection instructions

  • In Open Collector mode the inverse inputs are not connected.
  • When using an encoder without zero pulse C, the terminal points for the C track are not connected.

Connection of Open Collector counters / pulse generators with or without zero pulse

Open Collector mode 3:Fig.35: Connection counter / pulse generator Open Collector mode with zero pulse
Open Collector mode 4:

Connection instructions

  • In Open Collector mode the inverse inputs are not connected.
  • When a counter/pulse generator is connected, the B track specifies the counting direction.
    Input B̅ is not connected.
  • When using a counter / pulse generator without zero pulse C, the terminal points for the C track are not connected.
