Description
Operating mode
- - - Binary
Non-
binary
Binary
Non-
binary
Round
axis
Defines the operating mode and the
relevant available scaling parame‐
ters.
Number of steps per revolution
Set number of steps per revolution
B: 1 to 32768
A: 1 to 262144
1 to 16384 Defines the number of steps per rev‐
olution.
Number of revolutions
Set number of revolutions
- 4096 fixed,
not-programmable
- 1 to
4096
Defines the number of revolutions.
Round axis functionality parameter
Set round axis functionality
- - - - X Number of revolutions numerator:
Defines the numerator for the num‐
ber of revolutions.
Number of revolutions denomina‐
tor:
Defines the denominator for the
number of revolutions.
Total number of steps:
Defines the total number of steps
possible across the number of revo‐
lutions.
Move SSI position bits
Set start/end of position bits
- - - X X The arrow pushbuttons can be used
to move the SSI position bits.
Various SSI formats can be imple‐
mented in this way, such as right-
aligned, left-aligned, or tree array.
Direction of rotation
(CW/ CCW / external)
X X X X X Absolute encoder:
Defines the direction of rotation as
viewed on the shaft.
CW = clockwise.
CCW = counter-clockwise.
External = setting via pin/wire.
Incremental encoder:
Enables the signal sequence to be
changed between A before B and B
before A.
SSI code type
- - - Gray
Binary
Defines the SSI code type for out‐
putting the absolute position.
