General

To distribute an encoder signal over the encoder network, the sync. encoder output is used. This object sends encoder data over the network with a preset cycle time (DataCycleTime) that corresponds to the SERCOS cycle time. Following a preset delay (DataDelay), these encoder data become valid and are output by the sync. encoder inputs.

Using the function FC_SetMasterEncoder(LogEncId, MasterId), you can define any master encoder as a velocity source for the Synchronization encoder output. In this case, LogEncId is the logical address of the Synchronization encoder output (SYN_DOUT) and MasterId is the logical address of the master encoder to be connected.
