Number of lines Number of pulses emitted by the encoder per mechanical rotation.
Zero pulse width, electrical Width of the zero pulse (= length of the high signal) in relation to an impulse period.
Zero pulse width, mechanical Width of the zero pulse in relation to a mechanical revolution of the shaft.
Signal sequence / direction of This function can be used to change the signal sequence:
rotation A leads B – A comes before B when rotating in a clockwise direction and looking at the
shaft.
B leads A – B comes before A when rotating in a clockwise direction and looking at the
shaft.
Reset to factory settings All programmable values are reset to the values
that the sensor had when leaving the production plant.
Set zero pulse This function can be used to change the position of the zero pulse on a mechanical rotation
of the encoder. The zero point is assigned to the current position of the encoder. The rotary
encoder should not be rotated while the function is being executed.
Singleturn scaling Adjustability of the resolution output by the encoder per rotation.
Multiturn scaling Adjustability of the resolution output by the encoder via the number of rotations.
Set preset value Sets the position value to zero or to a preset value.
Speed format Selects the appropriate speed format (e.g. rpm, rps, etc.).
The round axis functionality permits resolutions for non-integer numbers of rotations (e.g.
Round axis functionality 3,600 steps at 2.75 rotations).
Diagnostics Additional data provided by the sensor (such as temperature monitoring, operating hour
counter, speed monitoring, etc.).
Angle window Range between two angle values (switch point 1 and switch point 2) that can be defined by
the user.
Measuring range scaling To increase the resolution, the measuring range of the inclination sensors can be individual-
ly adapted to the application within the maximum measuring range.
Output signal scaling The output signal of the analog inclination sensors is set at the factory to 4 to 20 mA or 0 to
10 V, but can also be freely programmed (value range is type-dependent).
Axis assignment The analog inclination sensors have two output channels, to which a measuring axis can be
assigned.
Output limitation This function can be used to define whether the output value rises further when the config-
ured limit value is reached or remains at the limit value.
Set zero point The zero point of the inclination sensors can also be set as desired after the installation. In
addition, it is possible to allocate a defined angle value to the current position.
Digital filter settings A low-pass filter is used to stabilize the output value. The characteristic and the limit fre-
quency can be configured.
Setting resolution / length The resolution is defined as a measuring step in µm between 2 edges of the 2 channels A
measuring step and B and corresponds to 90° electrically.
Direction of movement If the material movement is like the arrow direction of the product description, then set
forward for counting direction. If the material movement is opposite to the arrow direction,
then set counting direction backwards.
