Detailed Drive Operation Chapter 1
Parameter 234 [Encdr 0/1 Error] indicates the status of the encoder when there is
an error.
The encoder blocks generate position feedback, seen in parameter 230 [Encdr0
Position] or parameter 240 [Encdr1 Position]. Encoder position is in quadrature
counts (the drive counts 4x the encoder PPR per motor revolution).
The encoder blocks generate speed feedback, seen in parameter 231 [Encdr0 Spd
Fdbk] and parameter 241 [Encdr1 Spd Fdbk].
Linear Feedback Devices
A Linear Feedback device requires a Multi-Device Interface (MDI) feedback
option card. Refer to the
PowerFlex 700S AC Drive Phase II Control Frames 1…6
Installation Instructions, publication 20D-IN024 , for information on supported
linear feedback devices.
Note : the linear feedback devices can be used only for position feedback, and are
not used for motor speed feedback.
The position feedback (displayed in parameter 252 [FB Opt1 Posit]) counts at a
rate which depends on the linear feedback sensor used. Parameter 253 [FB Opt1
Spd Fdbk] contains the speed feedback from the linear feedback device.
