6 Incremental Encoder Input Units
6 - 68
NX-series Position Interface Units User’s Manual (W524)
This section provides two ladder diagram examples. One does not assign the pulse rate value to a
PDO and reads the value from the Unit every time. The other assigns the pulse rate value to a PDO.
 Reading the Pulse Rate Value from the Unit Each Time
Use the following procedure.
1 Starting and Reading the Pulse Rate Value
Change the read execution condition to TRUE and use the Read NX Unit Object instruction to
read the pulse rate value from the target Unit.
2 Processing the Data
When the read is completed (i.e., Done in the Read NX Unit Object instruction), calculate the
data from the pulse rate value that was read in step 1.
In this example, we will calculate the frequency.
In this example, the time window set value (unit: ms) in the Incremental Encoder Input Unit is used
as it is in the frequency calculation. The unit of the calculated frequency is therefore kHz.
The value that is automatically set for the target Unit when the variable is assigned in the Sysmac
Studio is used for the Specified Unit input variable to the Read NX Unit Object instruction
(NX_ReadObj).
The Object Parameter (Obj) is a structure with the following data type.
To read the pulse rate of the Incremental Encoder Input Unit, set the index to UINT#16#6003 and
set the subindex to USINT#1 for the pulse rate for channel 1 and to USINT#2 for the pulse rate for
channel 2.
