Setting the encoder supply voltage

The EP7041-4032 can supply the connected encoder with either 5 VDC or 9 VDC. The factory setting is 5 VDC. This setting also applies to the high level of the "DIR" and "SET" signals.

Procedure for changing the encoder operating voltage:

1. Select the subordinate device "EP7041-0000" in the Solution Explorer.
Setting the encoder supply voltage 1:
2. Write the value 0x72657375 (ASCII: "user") to the CoE parameter 0xF008 "Code word".
The supply voltage setting is enabled.
3. Select the desired supply voltage in CoE parameter 0x8008:12 "Supply Voltage".
4. Click on "Reload Devices".
Setting the encoder supply voltage 2:
The selected supply voltage is output.
