Function Modules
Highly precise, fast and future-proof
The completely new hardware architecture and a system design based on the highest security standards are built for long term use. The function modules of the M100 series offer impressive performance, state-of-the-art technology and a wide range of expansion options for the best possible future. Make the right system decision today for tomorrow.
The EII102 combines many highly precise functions in a single module. The module allows for extremely fast edge counting, measurement of periods and pulse durations, and the evaluation of incremental encoders up to 32 MHz for demanding motion and handling applications. Immediate reactions such as latch, reset or counter enable are triggerable via digital inputs on the module. An encoder supply directly via the module terminals completes the product family.
The EAS102 module type makes it possible to evaluate up to 2 absolute encoders. SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) is used as the communication protocol. Furthermore, a parity check and the evaluation of transmitted special purpose bits are supported. The counting direction can be defined via the V/R output. Referencing is initiated via the SET output. Digitally transmitted encoder errors can be detected via a separate input. If the actual position is reaching a configured comparison value, module-to-module communication enables a digital output to be switched at the adjacent module without any time loss.
