Incremental encoder setting:
Enter the Zero Mark pitch parameter value if the encoder has got a Zero mark channel. Zero Mark pitch is the
number of encoder increments between 2 successive zero mark signals. If the encoder is not equipped with a
Zero mark channel, set Zero Mark pitch value at 0.
Enter the Resolution parameter value according to the encoder mounting and the mechanical ratio for a given
application.
- If the encoder is directly mounted on the motor: Resolution = 4 x number of encoder signal periods per shaft
revolution for a rotating motor or number of encoder signal periods per pole pitch for a linear motor.
- If the encoder is coupled to the motor according to a mechanical ratio, the value of the mechanical ratio must be
considered for the Resolution parameter calculation.
Select Reverse direction in order to reverse the counting direction of the encoder, if required.
Adjust the encoder Zero mark shift and Zero mark width parameter values if the encoder has got a zero mark
channel.
Incremental encoder + HES setting:
Enter the Zero Mark pitch parameter value if the encoder has got a Zero mark channel. Zero Mark pitch is the
number of encoder increments between 2 successive zero mark signals. If the encoder is not equipped with a
Zero mark channel, set Zero Mark pitch value at 0.
Enter the Resolution parameter = 4 x number of encoder signal periods per shaft revolution for a rotating motor
or number of encoder signal periods per pole pitch for a linear motor.
The parameters HES type and Reverse HES tracks are automatically calculated when the Auto-phasing
procedure is performed.
Select Reverse direction in order to reverse the counting direction of the encoder, if required.
Adjust the encoder Zero mark shift and Zero mark width parameter values if the encoder has got a zero mark
channel.
Hiperface® encoder setting:
The command Read encoder configuration allows reading the encoder parameter values stored in the encoder
memory via the Hiperface® serial bus.
The parameter Reverse incremental track is manually identified according to the following procedure: move at
first the motor by hand. If the error “Encoder commutation channel / incremental channel” is released when
moving the motor, then toggle the parameter Reverse incremental track.
Select Reverse direction to reverse the counting direction of the encoder, if required.
SinCos encoder with CD tracks setting:
Enter the
Zero Mark pitch parameter value if the encoder has got a Zero mark channel. Zero Mark pitch is the
number of encoder periods between 2 successive zero mark signals x 4. If the encoder is not equipped with a
Zero mark channel, set the Zero Mark pitch value at 0.
Enter the Resolution parameter = 4 x number of encoder signal periods per shaft revolution for a rotating motor
or number of encoder signal periods per pole pitch for a linear motor.
The parameter Reverse CD track is manually identified according to the following procedure: move at first the
motor manually. If the error “Encoder commutation channel / incremental channel” is released when moving the
motor, then toggle the parameter Reverse CD track.
Select Reverse direction in order to reverse the counting direction of the encoder, if required.
Adjust the encoder Zero mark shift and Zero mark width parameter values if the encoder has got a zero mark
channel.
