Configuring the axes for encoders with 1 V
116
The configuration procedure is the same for each axis. The following
section describes only the configuration of the X axis.
Tap Settings in the main menu
Tap Axes
Tap X or, if applicable, Not defined
If applicable, select the axis designation in the Axis name
drop-down list
Tap Axis type
Select the Linear axisAxis type
In order to switch to the previous axis, tap Back
Tap Encoder
Specify the connection for the corresponding encoder in the
Encoder input drop-down list:
X1
X2
X3
X4
X5
X6
Select the type of incremental signal in the Incremental
signal drop-down list:
1 Vpp: sinusoidal voltage signal
11 µApp: sinusoidal current signal
Select the type of encoder in the Encoder model drop-down
list:
Linear encoder: linear axis
Angle encoder: rotary axis
Angle encoder as linear encoder: rotary axis is displayed
as linear axis
Depending on the selection, enter further parameters:
For a Linear encoder, enter the Signal period (see
Page 118)
For an Angle encoder, enter the Line count (see
Page 118)
For an Angle encoder as linear encoder, enter the Line
count and the Mechanical ratio
Confirm the entry with RET
Tap Reference marks
Select the reference mark in the Reference mark drop-down
list:
None: There is no reference mark
One: The encoder has one reference mark
Coded: The encoder has distance-coded reference marks
