9.28 Absolute value encoder with SSI protocol
Absolute value encoders provide information about position in the form of a
digital numeric value. Because the numeric value is unique over the entire res
olution range of the absolute value encoder, no initial reference movement is
needed is is the case for incremental rotary encoders. Absolute values can be
transferred by the encoder using the international SSI, EnDat (Heidenhain) or
Hiperface (Sick-Stegmann).
In addition to the current position value, other data items can also be trans
ferred. They can include current temperature values of the encoder or the elec
trical data of the servo motor on which the encoder is mounted (the "electronic
rating plate").
SSI is supported by QuantumX MX840B (channels 5-8) as well as MX440B
