December 2001 Encoders 3 – 37
3.5.3 Speed Encoder (LE 426 PB/M, LE 430 PA/M)
Maximum input 
frequency
Maximum input frequency of speed encoder inputs:
Example:
f = 410 kHz; n = 24 000 rpm
Inputs with EnDat 
interface
EnDat interface is available at the following speed encoder inputs:
Input Max. input frequency
X15 to X20 350 kHz
X62 to X64
X60 410 kHz
to NC software 280 470-xx: 350 kHz
Note
Keep in mind the line count of the speed encoder when choosing the 
spindle motor:
x = line count of the speed encoder
f = maximum input frequency
n = maximum spindle speed
