Incremental signals
1 Vpp device-dependent (“Incremental signals 1 Vpp” on page 212)
Some encoders also provide incremental signals. These are usually used to increase the
resolution of the position value, or to serve a second subsequent electronics unit. Current
generations of encoders have a high internal resolution, and therefore no longer need to provide
incremental signals. The order designation indicates whether an encoder outputs incremental
signals:
EnDat 01 with 1 V
pp
incremental signals
EnDat Hx with HTL incremental signals
EnDat Tx with TTL incremental signals
EnDat 21 without incremental signals
EnDat 02 with 1 V
pp
incremental signals
EnDat 22 without incremental signals
Notes on EnDat 01, 02:
The signal period is stored in the encoder memory.
Notes on EnDat Hx, Tx:
The encoder-internal subdivision of the incremental signal is indicated by the ordering
designation:
Ha, Ta:
2-fold interpolation
Hb, Tb: without interpolation
Hc:
scanning signals x 2
Power
supply
The typical voltage supply of the encoders depends on the interface:
Exceptions are documented in the Specifications.
