Raghav Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 I would like to know the differnece between the additon and subtraction of two encoders input (space at 180 dgreee). In this case, the final Motor[].Enctype should be chosen as type 7 (as two of the actual encoders are Type 7 and we use ACI) or Type 1? Also how do I use another low resolution encoder as the feedback for Velocity control (Dual feedback). So in total I have 3 encoders for a single axis. Any procedure or manual would be helpful.

wbzhong Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 We have used two encoders for a single axis (a higer res. encoder for positioning mode, low res. for velocity mode). There two encoders are connected to two channels of ACC24E3. We used a PLC to switch the motor feedback. Renishaw has high-precision rotary encoder that uses two reader head but outputs one compensated signal. You will need to configure multiple Enocder Conversion Tables to process these feedback. The Motor[x].EncType does not control any function itself. You can manually set the affected parameters in PLC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
