Gocator Line Profile Sensors: User Manual

Active Low
To assert the signal, the digital input voltage should be set to draw a current of 3 mA to 40 mA from the
positive pin. The current that passes through the positive pin is I = (Vin – 1.2 – Vdata) / 680. To reduce
noise sensitivity, we recommend leaving a 20% margin for current variation (i.e., uses a digital input
voltage that draws 4mA to 25mA).

Encoder Input
Encoder input is provided by an external encoder and consists of three RS-485 signals. These signals are
connected to Encoder_A, Encoder_B, and Encoder_Z.

Gocator only supports differential RS485 signalling. Both + and - signals must be connected.
Encoders are normally specified in pulses per revolution, where each pulse is made up of the
four quadrature signals (A+/ A- /B+ / B-). Because Gocator reads each of the four quadrature
signals, you should choose an encoder accordingly, given the resolution required for your
application.
