19 – 290 HEIDENHAIN Service Manual iTNC 530 HSCI
19.1.7 Possibilities with the integrated oscilloscope
The integrated oscilloscope is used to record the incremental signals (A, B or I1, I2) of position
encoders.
Activation and operation --> See ”Integrated oscilloscope” on page 10 – 95.
Example of an oscilloscope recording of position encoder signals:
8 Make the following settings (select the minimum value in the 'time resolution' line; here 0.6 ms):
8 Move the X axis at very low speed in the manual mode.
8 Start the oscilloscope recording.
8 Stop recording.
8 Adapt the signals taking the zero line into account.
8 Adapt the time axis to get a more detailed view.
Note
Reference signals and EnDat signals cannot be displayed!
A phase angle measuring unit (e.g. PWM 9) should be used for accurate signal tracing.
