    Please find all respective hints and rules on www.motrona.com/download.html --> “[General EMC Rules for Wiring, Screening and Earthing]”. 1.4. Cleaning, Maintenance and Service Notes To clean the front of the unit please use only a slightly damp (not wet!), soft cloth.
  • Page 5: Introduction

    2. Introduction IT 251 has been designed as a universal encoder interface for use with incremental encoder signals. The unit is suitable to solve the following applications:  Level conversion from TTL / RS422 to HTL and vice-versa  Division of quadrature encoder pulses, with adjustable division rate from 1:1 to 1:4096 ...
  • Page 6: Connections And Terminal Assignments

    4. Connections and Terminal Assignments For frequency input, either the RS 422 inputs (D-SUB) or the 10 … 30 V HTL inputs can be used. The other inputs, which are not in use, must remain unconnected or must be disabled by corresponding DIL switch setting.

  • Page 8: Basic Switch Settings

    5. Basic Switch Settings Upon commissioning, some basic settings must be done by switch DIL4. These settings select one of the possible standards for expressing the direction of rotation on inputs and outputs. Also the potential of the metallic housings of the SUB-D-connectors can be set, and the inputs can be enabled or disabled (RS422 signals or HTL signals) Changes of the DIL switch positions will become active only after the next power-up of the unit!

For this kind of application, please set the A/B delay time by DIL switch 2, with consideration of your maximum output frequency. For division rates higher than 1:1, the phase displacement gets more and more close to a real 90º...
  • Page 11: Setting Of The Impulse Division Rate

    6. Setting of the Impulse Division Rate The incremental division rate for the A/B input pulses can be set by means of switch DIL1 and by positions 1 – 4 of switch DIL2. The marker pulse Z uses a separate divider and marker division is described later. The switch positions use a binary code like shown in the subsequent list.
