Specifying The Encoder Evaluation - Siemens SINAMICS S120 Commissioning Manual

Commissioning
5.3 Creating a project offline
Procedure
Proceed as follows to insert and specify an encoder in your device configuration:
1. Open "Measuring systems" in the hardware catalog.
2. Select the desired, unspecified encoder in the device overview.
3. Drag the desired, unspecified encoder to the lower area of the Motor Module.
An encoder and a Sensor Module are created.
4. Click the unspecified encoder in the device view.
5. Open the inspector window if it has not been opened yet.
6. In the inspector window, select the "Measuring system - Selection - xxx" entry.
7. Select the desired encoder in the selection list.
The data of the selected encoder are assigned to the unspecified encoder. The white area
turns dark gray.
Further, a Sensor Module - encoder evaluation is also inserted.
Adding additional encoders
If you need additional encoders for your device configuration, configure them in the same way
as described above. These encoders are then generally used as machine encoders.
5.3.8.2
