    1.1 About This Manual This technical manual describes the configuration and mounting possibilities for absolute-value encoders with a PROFINET interface produced by Encoder Products Company (EPC). It supplements the other publicly available EPC documents, e.g. data sheets, assembly instructions, leaflets, catalogues and flyers.
  • Page 8: 1.1.2 What Is Not In This Manual

    Patented technologies for single-turn and for multi-turn are used in the A58SE and A58HE series encoders. As a result, these encoders from EPC are maintenance-free and very eco-friendly.
  • Page 9: Scope Of Delivery

    EMC and Machine Directive. A rotary encoder is a sensor that is designed to detect angular positions and revolutions and must only be used for this purpose! EPC Automation manufactures and distributes encoders for use in non-safety-relevant industrial applications.

    3.3.1 Single Turn – ST Measurement of the angle from 0° to 360° by means of a shaft represents the minimum functionality of a rotary encoder. The sensor system is based on optical or magnetic sampling of a measuring graduation on the encoder shaft.
  • Page 12: 3.3.2 Multi-Turn - Mt

    3.3.2 Multi-Turn – MT A multi-turn encoder allows the number of revolutions to be recorded. This is achieved via a rotation counter. The A58SE and A58HE encoders include technology, which ensures that the corresponding information is retained, even in a voltage- free state.

    Bus Cover with 3 x M12x1 The "RNB" code in the order key refers to an encoder with a bus cover. The electrical connection is made at the bus cover via the 2 x M12 plugs and 1 x M12 socket. The connection assignment of the plugs and sockets can be found in Table 3.1.
  • Page 14: Leds And Signalling

    M a n u a l LEDs and Signalling Four status LEDs on the bus cover signal the various encoder states and thus support error diagnosis and troubleshooting in the field (see Table 3.2). The two Link Activity LEDs (L/A) light up or flash green when the encoder is connected to another PROFINET node (PLC, switch, additional field device...) and data is being exchanged. The STAT LED indicates the status of the fieldbus, the MOD LED the status of the encoder. STAT LED MOD LED Meaning Cause...
  • Page 15: Mac Address And Ip Address

    EPC PROFINET encoders have three MAC addresses. These always start with D4-90-E0-xx-xx-xx. The number depends on the number of ports on the integrated three-port switch. There is one MAC address each for Port1 and Port2, as well as one MAC address for the "internal port" to which the encoder itself is connected. In the delivered state, the PROFINET encoder has no IP address and no name. These are defined during configuration (e.g., TIA Portal).
