Configuration of the incremental encoder

If you use an incremental encoder, configure it with the following CoE parameters:

Index	Name	Unit
8008:01_hex	Invert feedback direction	-
8008:02_hex	Enable power supply	-
8008:05_hex	Enable ENC C input	-
8008:11_hex	Supply voltage output	mV
8008:12_hex	Encoder type	-
8008:13_hex	Encoder Increments per Revolution	inc/rev

8008:11 "Supply voltage output"

In this parameter, set the magnitude of the supply voltage for the encoder in millivolts. The value range is 2…24 V.

Switch on the supply voltage output by setting parameter 8008:02 "Enable power supply" to TRUE.

In this parameter, set the signal type of the encoder.

An encoder must be connected if the value of this parameter is not "disabled". Otherwise, an error will be reported in the Diag History.

"HTL single ended" is set in the factory settings.

Signal type	Max. input frequency ¹⁾	Current sink 2.5 mA	Signal level Low	Signal level High	Comment
disabled		-	-	-	Incremental encoder interface disabled Is disabled by DM2 for Six-Step Hall
RS422 differential	5 million inc/s	no	U_diff < -0.45 V	U_diff > +0.45 V	-
TTL single ended	1 million inc/s	yes	< 0.8 V	> 3.0 V	-
HTL differential	5 million inc/s	no	U_diff < -2 V	U_diff > +2 V	-
HTL single ended	5 million inc/s	yes	< 6 V	> 9.2 V	-
RS422 differential – high impedance input	5 million inc/s	no	U_diff < -0.45 V	U_diff > +0.45 V	For applications in which the encoder signals are too weak
TTL single ended – input filters disabled	5 million inc/s	yes	< 0.8 V	> 3.0 V	Higher signal frequency possible. More sensitive to interference.
Open collector	250,000 inc/s	no	< 0.8 V	> 2.0 V	Encoder switches to ground

¹⁾ with 4-fold evaluation.

Multiply the number of increments of the encoder by a factor of four. Enter the result in this parameter.

If you are using a magnetic encoder with interpolation, calculate the number of increments according to the following equation:
