Encoder

6.2.3.1

Overview

The values of an encoder can be assigned to the measurement data exactly, output, and also used as a triggering condi­
tion. This exact assignment to the measured values is ensured by the fact that precisely those encoder values are output
that were present in half of the exposure time of the measured value; the exposure time can vary due to the regulation
process. Tracks A and B enable direction recognition.

Track A, B: Interpolation increases the
resolution of an encoder. The counter
reading is incremented or decremented
with each interpolated pulse edge.
When the maximum value is exceeded,
the encoder starts again at zero. This
could be the pulse count of a rotary en­
coder without a reference track, for ex­
ample.
Value range of 1 ... 4294967295
No effect: The encoder counter keeps
on counting; resetting takes place when
the sensor is switched on or when the
"Set to value" button is pressed.
Set to value once for mark: Sets the en­
coder counter to the defined value when
the first reference marker is reached.
The applicable mark is the first one after
sensor switch-on.
Set for all marks: Sets the encoder
counter to the start value in the case of
all marks.
Value range of 0 ... 4294967294
