Technology CPU
The settings of the encoder used that are required for the Technology CPU are listed in the
following table. Only the input values listed in the tables are evaluated for the respective
encoder.
If a fine resolution 0 (standard) is set in the Technology CPU, this means a fine resolution of
2
11
= 2048. If a different value is set (e.g. 1024), this means the actual fine resolution.
Encoder parameters in SIMOTION are specified using parameters in the axis configuration
windows or using the configuration data in the expert list as
"TypeOfAxis.NumberOfEncoders.Encoder_1.xxx". The following assignments apply to the
axis configuration windows:
