Configuring axes for encoders with EnDat interface

If the corresponding encoder input has already been assigned to an axis, a
connected encoder with EnDat interface is automatically detected upon restart,
and the settings are adapted. Alternatively, you can assign the encoder input after
you have connected the encoder.
Requirement:
100
An encoder with EnDat interface is connected to the product.
The configuration procedure is the same for each axis. The procedure
will now be explained using one axis as an example.
Tap Settings in the main menu
Tap Axes
Tap the axis name or Not defined, if applicable
If applicable, select the axis name for the axis in the Axis
name drop-down list
Tap Encoder
Select the connection for the corresponding encoder from
the Encoder input drop-down list:
X1
X2
X3
X4
X5
X6
The available encoder information is transmitted to the
product
The settings are updated
Select the encoder model from the Encoder model drop-
down list:
Linear encoder
Angle encoder
Angle encoder as linear encoder
If you selected Angle encoder as linear encoder, then enter
the Mechanical ratio
If you selected Angle encoder, specify the Display mode
Tap Reference point displacement
Use the ON/OFF slide switch to activate or deactivate
Reference point displacement (calculation of the offset
between the reference mark and the machine zero point)
If activated, enter the offset value for Reference point
displacement
Confirm the entry with RET
or
To apply the current position as the offset value, tap Apply
under Current position for reference point shift
