The module is used to transfer digital signals from NAMUR encoders according to EN 60947-5-6. In addition to NAMUR encoders, normal switches can also be used.
The module is equipped with 4 inputs for 3-wire connections. It has open circuit and short circuit detection. This detection can be switched off individually for each channel.
The module is equipped with two inputs for 3-wire connections. Both inputs can be configured as event counters. Gate measurement is only ever possible on one channel.
The module is equipped with 1 input for an ABR incremental encoder with 24 V encoder supply. The encoder inputs are monitored (A, B, R). The module is suitable for incremental encoders with push-pull outputs with no complementary signal.
The module is equipped with 1 input for an ABR incremental encoder with RS422-based output signals and 5 V encoder supply. The encoder inputs are monitored (A, B, R, A\, B\, R\).
