Incremental Serial Interface (ISI) Linear Transducers
ISI
Interface Provides Users with a Universally Accepted Incremental
Output with Absolute Encoder Data!
.
What is ISI?
ISI is an encoder interface available on TR encoders that provides
ABSOLUTE positioning data using standard A Quad B incremental encoder interface.
How Does it Work?
This
interface sends positioning changes to your controller as pulses,
using a standard incremental channel (A/A- and B/B-). The
absolute position of your system is maintained within the encoder and
can be extracted by triggering the Load In/Load Out functions. No
batteries required!
Forcing the Load input LOW will signal the encoder to stop
producing pulses. Your device counter can now be reset to zero. Next
Force the Load Input HIGH and the
absolute position of the encoder is sent to your controller via the
incremental pulse train. The encoder will cont up to
the encoder absolute position. When the absolute position is reached, it
turns off the Load Output signal and the encoder returns to normal
operation. ISI is a great solution for providing absolute position
when only an incremental interface is available on the controller or
drive and is a cost effective way to AVOID HAVING TO HOME your system.
