Technical Information

POSITIP 855

Grounding

Noise immunity can be increased by connecting the

ground screw on the rear panel to the star point of

machine ground. Minimum cross section of the

connecting wire: 6 mm

.

X4

Interfaces X1, X2, X3 and X4 comply with the recommen-

dations in EN 50 178 for separation from line power.

Connecting the encoders

POSITIP can be used with HEIDENHAIN linear and angle encoders

that provide sinusoidal output signals. The encoder inputs on the

rear panel are designated X1, X2, X3 and X4. The connecting

cable may not exceed 30 m (100 ft) in length.

Danger to internal components!

Do not engage or disengage any connections while

the unit is under power.

The encoder inputs are permanently assigned to 4 axes.

Operating parameter P49.* determines the designation of the

axes, e.g. axis 1 = X axis, axis 2 = Y axis.
