DRIVE-CLiQ
The encoder system can only be connected to SINAMICS S120 via DRIVE-CLiQ.
The DRIVE-CLiQ interface is either established through the sensor module at the motor
(motors with DRIVE-CLiQ) or in the cabinet using sensor module, cabinet-mounted (for
motors without DRIVE-CLiQ).

Motors with DRIVE-CLiQ
Motors with DRIVE-CLiQ have a sensor module that includes the encoder evaluation, the
motor temperature sensing as well as an electronic rating plate with a unique identification
number and motor and encoder-specific data.
These motors with DRIVE-CLiQ can be connected to the corresponding motor module
directly via the MOTION-CONNECT DRIVE-CLiQ cables supplied. This means that data is
directly transferred to the control unit.
These motors make start-up and diagnostics much easier, as the motor and encoder type
can be identified automatically.
