How to parameterise the SSI encoder:

1. Set the supply voltage (

C00421

) of the used SSI encoder.

In case of a higher supply power of encoders, e.g. with laser-based length measuring

systems, an external supply of the encoders must be provided.

2. As encoder type (

C00422

), select "4: Absolute value encoder (SSI)".

3. Set the bit rate (

C00427

) for SSI communication.

• For SSI protocols, the permissible baud rate is reduced if the cable length is increased. A

safe bit rate must be set, depending on the length of the used encoder cable and the

electromagnetic interference level.

4. Set the partitioning of the SSI data word in

C00426/1...5

according to the used SSI encoder

(see

Configuration example 1

).

5. If an SSI encoder with Gray coding is used:

Select "1: Gray code" in

C00428

to convert from Gray to binary.

• In the Lenze setting "0: Binary code", no conversion takes place, i.e. an SSI encoder with

binary coding is expected.

6. If a linear SSI encoder is used instead of a rotative encoder or the encoder value is to be

interpreted with or without sign:

Set the corresponding standard in

C01110

.
