1. Introduction SI251 represents an encoder interface unit, designed to convert output signals of so-called “sine-cosine-encoders” and similar measuring systems into incremental quadrature impulse signals. Under consideration of an adjustable multiplier the unit interpolates a corresponding number of impulses from every sine wave. An additional programmable divider provides division of the impulses if applicable, before they appear at the output.
3. Connections The unit provides a 9-pin Sub-D connector (female on the unit site) for connection of the sine/cosine sensor. For easy power supply of the encoder, an external jumper allows to switch an auxiliary voltage of either 5.2 volts or approx. 20 volts to the same connector. Also the mean voltage is available on the connector pins, allowing also the use of sensors with non- differential sinus output.

Pushbutton and DIL switch 2 (Configuration) Encoder supply LED’s DIL-switch 1 iImpulse divider) At any time, the over-all transmission characteristics of encoder, external components and capacity of cable must ensure proper signals at the input of the unit, with respect to levels, shape and phase displacement A/B.
4. Pin assignment of SUB-D-connectors 4.1. Sine/Cosine inputs Standard encoders with differential outputs can be connected directly to the corresponding pins SIN+, SIN-, COS+, COS-, REF+, REF-. Where longer cables must be used, terminating resistors between the non-inverted and the inverted signal of each channel may be of advantage.
When the reference signals REF+ and REF- are not used or not available, the related inputs of the converter must be tied to a defined potential. When you connect the REF- pin to V with the REF+ pin open, the unit will generate a Z impulse with every sine period.
5. Switch settings Switch DIL1 allows to set the filter and to choose the interpolation rate and interpolation time. Switch DIL2 selects a programmable divider and allows to set the unit to test mode Changes of the DIL switch positions will become active only after the next power-up of the unit!

Hints for settings of DIL switch 1: • Under proper electrical conditions there is no imperative need to use the filtering functions offered in the table above. When you set your interpolation factor with use of the filter settings highlighted in the table, there will be no further restrictions with the operating range of the unit.
