The EL5101-0010 EtherCAT Terminal is an interface for the direct connection of incremental encoders with differential signals (RS422). With a maximum input frequency of up to 5 MHz it is particularly suitable for dynamic applications.

The EL5102 EtherCAT Terminal is an interface for the direct connection of two incremental encoders with differential signals (RS422) or single ended signals (TTL and open collector), parameterizable per channel. Input frequencies up to 5 MHz can be processed. Two additional 24 V digital inputs are available for storing, blocking and setting the counter status. It is also possible to set the counter to a predefined value or to lock the counter directly through the process data. The error message output of an encoder can be connected and evaluated via the status input. The 5 V, 12 V or 24 V supply of the encoder can be provided directly via the terminal connection points.

The EL5112 EtherCAT Terminal is an interface for the direct connection of two incremental encoders with A and B track or one encoder with A, B and C track. Encoders with differential signals (RS422) or single-ended signals (TTL and open collector) can be connected. Input frequencies up to 5 MHz can be processed. In 2-channel mode, one 24 V digital input per channel is available for storing, blocking and setting the counter status; in 1-channel operation, both inputs can be used. It is also possible to set the counter to a predefined value or to lock the counter directly through the process data. The 5 V, 12 V or 24 V supply of the encoder can be provided directly via the terminal connection points.

The EL5131 EtherCAT Terminal is an interface for the direct connection of incremental encoders with differential signals (RS422) or single-ended signals (TTL and open collector). Two parameterizable 24 V DC push-pull, tristate outputs are available, which are set after reaching a specified count, frequency or speed value. This allows the realization of a digital cam controller, which uses position or time cams and ensures a precise response time independent of the fieldbus cycle.

The EL5151 EtherCAT Terminal is an interface for the direct connection of one incremental encoder (24 V HTL). An additional 24 V digital input is available for storing or blocking the counter status. As an alternative, the EL5151 can be used as a up/down counter. The 24 V supply of the encoder can be provided directly via the terminal connection points.

The EL5152 EtherCAT Terminal is an interface for the direct connection of two incremental encoders (24-V-HTL) with A and B track. As an alternative, the EL5152 can be used as a up/down counter. The 24 V supply of the encoder can be provided directly via the terminal connection points.

The EL5151-0090 EtherCAT Terminal is an interface for the direct connection of one incremental encoder (24 V HTL). An additional 24 V digital input is available for storing or blockingthe counter status. As an alternative, the EL5151-0090 can be used as a up/down counter. The 24 V supply of the encoder can be provided directly via the terminal connection points.

The EJ5101 EtherCAT plug-in module is an interface for the direct connection of incremental encoders with differential signals (RS422) or TTL single ended signals via the signal distribution board. Two additional 24 V digital inputs are available for storing, blocking and setting the counter status. The error message output of an encoder can be connected and evaluated via the status input of the module. The encoder can be supplied with 5 V DC directly from the EtherCAT plug-in module.

The EJ5151 EtherCAT plug-in module is an interface for connecting a 24 V incremental encoder (24 V HTL) via the signal distribution board. An additional 24 V digital input is available for storing or blocking the counter reading. Alternatively, the EJ5151 can be used as up/down counter. The 24 V supply of the encoder can be provided directly via the supply on the signal distribution board.
