Connection PTO (CN4, Pulse Train Out)

 

5 V signals are available at the PTO (Pulse Train Out, CN4) output. Depending on parameter PTO_mode, these signals are ESIM signals (encoder simulation) or logically fed through PTI input signals (P/D signals, A/B signals, CW/CCW signals). The PTO output signals can be used as PTI input signals for another device. The signal level corresponds to RS422, see chapter Output PTO (CN4). The PTO output supplies 5 V signals, even if the PTI input signal is a 24 V signal.

Availability

Available with firmware version ≥V01.04.

PTO: Logically Fed Through PTI Signals

At the PTO output, the PTI input signals can be made available again to control a subsequent device (daisy chain). Depending on the input signal, the output signal can be of type P/D signal, A/B signal or CW/CCW signal. The PTO output supplies 5 V signals.

Connecting PTO

oConnect the connector to CN4. Verify correct pin assignment.

oVerify that the connector locks snap in properly.
