5V Encoder Adapter
1 RJ45 connector
2 Encoder cables
3 D-Sub 9-pin female connector
4 D-Sub 9-pin male connector at the encoder cable (user furnished)
oThe 5V Encoder Adapter consists of an encoder cable (2) with an RJ45 connector (1) on one side that is connected to an Lexium 62 cabinet drive, as well as a D-Sub 9-pin female connector (3) on the other side.
oA DC/DC converter is assembled in the D-Sub 9-pin female connector (3). It converts the encoder power supply that is coming from the drive from 10 V to 5 V. The 5 V and the 10 V encoder supply voltage is available on the D-Sub 9-pin female connector (3). All the other signals, such as encoder- and RS485 signals are transferred directly from the drive to the encoder.
oThis is why it is possible to connect 5 V encoders also, which are not directly supported by the Lexium 62 cabinet drive.
NOTICE |
CURRENT TOO HIGH AT THE ENCODER CONNECTOR OF THE LEXIUM 62 CABINET DRIVE BY USING BOTH 5 V AND 10 V VOLTAGE SUPPLY |
oUse exclusively one voltage supply for the encoder, either 5 V or 10 V. oOnly use 5 V encoders with a maximum power consumption of 250 mA. |
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage. |
