For Vector control with speed encoder (refer to Table 3-40), a pulse encoder 
evaluation (option module) as well as a pulse encoder, e.g. encoder with 1024 
pulses/revolution are required. In addition to the correct wiring, the pulse encoder 
module must be activated, corresponding to the encoder type, using the parameter 
range P0400 – P0494 or using the DIP switch on the module (refer to Fig. 3-104).

Advantages of Vector control with encoder: 
¾  The speed can be closed-loop controlled down to 0 Hz (i.e. at standstill) 
¾  Stable control behavior over the complete speed range 
¾  Constant torque in the rated speed range 
¾  When compared to closed-loop speed control without encoder, the dynamic 
response for drives with encoder is significantly higher as the speed is directly 
measured and is incorporated in generating the model of current components i
