Safety function

The TONiC FS encoder system provides 1 Vpp (nominal) sine and cosine outputs, where the sine
and cosine outputs are 90° phase shifted, in order for the evaluation unit to perform incremental
counting and thereby confirm machine position is within safe limits.
The following restrictions apply to this claim:
The system installer must perform a verified commissioning test during installation.
The system repairer must perform a verified commissioning test following replacement of a
system part.
When installed correctly, the TONiC FS system shall have mechanical safe position not
exceeding ±1 mm
NOTE: Thermal expansion effects of the scale and readhead mounting tolerances are
excluded from the mechanical safe position.
The TONiC FS system includes no self-diagnostic function.
NOTE: Faults are detected only by the evaluation unit monitoring. When errors are detected it
is the responsibility of the system manufacturer to place the system into a safe state.
