(“Insert” – “Master System”) the FRABA encoder can be chosen from the hardware catalogue and added to the profibus network: Select the device “FRABA Encoder” and drag it with the mouse to the network (or choose the network and double click the “FRABA encoder”).
For this, one of the modules listed under encoder depends on the selected encoder version. FRABA encoder has to be dragged to Slot 1 in the After the “FRABA encoder” has been added to the displayed configuration table of the encoder.
Numerical values have to be entered the different parameters (depend on the encoder directly. The example shows the parameters of version) can be set. encoder version FRABA 2.2, the version with the several possibilities offered highest functionality.
