4.1.4 SinCos interface
The SinCos interface connections (Sin and Cos incremental channels only) are made using the
15-pin D-type female connector X8. Twisted pair cables must be used for the complementary
signal pairs e.g. Sin+ and Sin-. The overall cable shield (screen) must be connected to the
metallic shell of the D-type connector. Connector X8 includes a ‘Sense’ pin, which is used to
detect the voltage drop on long cable runs. This allows the MotiFlex e100 to increase the supply
voltage on pin 12 to maintain a 5 VDC supply at the encoder (200 mA max). The Sin and Cos
channel input circuits accept a nominal 1 V pk-pk sine wave centered on a 2.5 V reference.
