Pulse Output Modes

Overview

There are four possible output modes:

oA ClockWise / B CounterClockwise

oA Pulse

oA Pulse / B direction

oQuadrature

A ClockWise (CW) / B CounterClockwise (CCW) Mode

This mode generates a signal that defines the motor operating speed and direction. This signal is implemented either on the PTO output A or on PTO output B depending on the motor rotation direction.

 

 

A Pulse Mode

This mode generates one signal on the PTO outputs:

oOutput A: pulse which provides the motor operating speed.

NOTE: The corresponding function block generates an "Invalid Direction" error if you specify a negative direction value.

 

 

A Pulse / B Direction Mode

This mode generates two signals on the PTO outputs:

oOutput A: pulse which provides the motor operating speed.

oOutput B: direction which provides the motor rotation direction.

 

 

Quadrature Mode

This mode generates two signals in quadrature phase on the PTO outputs (the phase sign depends on motor direction).
