890CD Feedback Connections 
Incremental Pulse Encoders 
The default settings for the drive are for 2048 line, quadrature, 
incremental pulse encoders with differential outputs operating 
from a 10VDC supply.  
•  Z channel (Marker pulse) connections are not necessary for 
running the drive, but inputs are provided for positioning 
and servo applications. The supply voltage to the encoder 
is set in the Quick Setup menu. Range 10 VDC to 20 VDC 
 
Use the Keypad to set the following options: 
Supply Voltage - PULSE ENC VOLTS (S17) 
Number of lines per revolution - ENCODER LINES parameter 
(S18) 
* Encoder direction - ENCODER INVERT (S19) 
 
* Used to match the encoder direction to the motor direction. 
When TRUE, changes the sign of the measured speed and the 
direction of the position count. It is necessary to set up this 
parameter when in CLOSED-LOOP VEC mode, as the encoder 
direction must be correct for this mode to operate. 
 
Using other types of encoders requires the DSE Configuration 
Tool and the setting of other parameters. Refer to the 890 
Engineering Reference Manual for details of these parameters.
