Encoder monitoring
For monitoring the HTL encoder, two monitoring functions are implemented in the inverter
firmware:
a) Encoder signal loss monitoring: Is triggered if a failure of the encoder signal is detected
(e. g. due to open circuit or failure of the encoder current supply).
b) Encoder maximum frequency monitoring: Is triggered if the calculated encoder maximum
frequency is beyond the permissible frequency range of the digital inputs.
Preconditions
The encoder signal loss monitoring is only active if the HTL encoder
•
is set as feedback system for the motor control or
•
used as signal source for the
•
For the encoder signal loss monitoring ,the inverter must be enabled and the motor must
•
rotate.
The encoder maximum frequency monitoring is active as soon as the HTL encoder has
•
been configured.
Restrictions
The encoder signal loss monitoring does not work anymore if the
•
active.

The response time of the encoder signal loss monitoring depends on the setting of the
•
encoder increments/revolution in
The settings of the speed controller can influence the encoder signal loss monitoring. If the
•
reset time of the speed controller is very low or deactivated, an encoder signal loss cannot
be detected at switch-on.
If the HTL encoder is used as signal source for the
•
signal loss cannot be detected at switch-on.
Combined with the "Holding brake control" function:
•
In order that the encoder signal loss monitoring is not triggered by mistake, monitoring
•
will only be activated when the holding brake is released.
If Brake closing time

(P712.03)
are not set correctly, the encoder signal loss monitoring can be triggered
although an encoder signal is available.
