Absolute multiturn rotary encoders deliver an absolute step value for each angle setting.This device has a maximum basic resolution of 65536 steps per revolution (16 bits) and codes up to 16384 revolutions (14 bits).Thus the overall resolution amounts to 30 bits. On account of the high number of measuring steps resulting (more than 1 billion), this type of encoder can be used to divide very long linear distances into small measuring steps.The Eternet interface of this absolute encoder supports the TCP/IP protocol.The integrated webserver provides Java applets, which allow the whole parameterisation of the encoder via any web browser.The following operation modes can be selected:
Polled Mode
Cyclic Mode
Change of State Mode
The device is designed for shaft assembly and is available in servo flange or clamping flange design.
