Siemens SIMOTION D410 Commissioning Manual page 87

The communication for the control of the SINAMICS drive is configured in the following dialog
box. We recommend that the communications settings are performed automatically by the
engineering system.
You can also perform the settings for the process data exchange manually by selecting "User-
defined". Information about the manual setting options can be found in the online help and in
the manuals for the SINAMICS S120 drive system.

Figure 5-8 Selecting a motor encoder (2)
Note
If required, you can configure a second or third encoder in the "Encoder" dialog. You can
transmit a maximum of 2 encoder values to SIMOTION via the axis message frame. In
the case of motors with a DRIVE-CLiQ interface, the motor encoder is identified
automatically. It is not necessary to enter encoder data in such cases (the box for selecting
Encoder 1 is grayed out and, therefore, inactive).
