792 HEIDENHAIN Technical Manual MANUALplus 620
Encoders with
EnDat interface
Position encoders and speed encoders with EnDat interface can be connected
to the MANUALplus 620. With these encoders there is no need to traverse the
reference marks. The position value is only read when the MANUALplus 620
is switched on. It cannot be read again.
When connecting a position encoder with EnDat interface, or a speed encoder
with EnDat interface as a position encoder:
Enter MP_refType = Endat Encoder
If use of multiturn encoders with EnDat interfaces results in overflows, the
corresponding information is stored temporarily. If the control is
exchanged, MP_refPosition must be re-adjusted.
