2.5.1.2. Absolute Encoder (Auxiliary)

The drive retrieves absolute position data along with encoder fault information through a serial data
stream from the absolute encoder. Use twisted-pair wiring for the highest performance and noise
immunity. You cannot use an absolute encoder with incremental signals on the Auxiliary I/O
Connector.
Refer to Figure 2-36 for the serial data stream interface.
Refer to the Help file for information on how to set up your EnDat or BiSS absolute encoder
parameters.
