2 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
(3) Connection of manual pulse generator
Manual pulse generators of the voltage-output/open-collector type and
differential-output type can be connected. Both connection methods are different.
(Refer to this section (5).)
When the manual pulse generator is connected to the Q173DPX, it cannot be
connected to the internal I/F.

(4) Connection of incremental synchronous encoder
Incremental synchronous encoders of the voltage-output/Open-collector type and
differential-output type can be connected. Both connection methods are different.
(Refer to this section (5).)
The serial absolute synchronous encoder cannot be connected to the Q173DPX.

• Tracking enable signal
Tracking enable signal of Q173DPX is used to start the input from incremental
synchronous encoders in the external input mode for the clutch.
The external input signal of the incremental synchronous encoder is indicated
below.
This signal is used as the input start signal, high-speed reading function or high-
speed input request signal from incremental synchronous encoder.
