Modul 13/013: Converter from Serial Encoder (Fanuc/Mitsubishi) to TTL Encoder

Module 13/013: converts proprietary Fanuc or Mitsubishi serial protocols to standard TTL encoder signals. Protect your motor.

Servoconvertitore BTD1

In the world of industrial automation, closed proprietary protocols are the biggest obstacle to retrofitting. The 13/013 transducer converter solves a problem for which there are virtually no alternatives on the market: it reads the signal of proprietary Fanuc or Mitsubishi serial encoders — often built into high-performance motors that are difficult to replace without also changing the drive and the control — and translates it into the universal 5 V TTL line driver language. This means you can remove a failed Fanuc or Mitsubishi axis drive, keep the original motor in the machine (saving days of production downtime for mechanical removal and re-interfacing) and drive it reliably with a standard servo converter, such as our PWM3D series; it is the definitive way out of vendor lock-in.

Technical Specifications

Input Signal: Proprietary Serial Encoder

FANUC:

  • αA1000 (Type: A860-0370-V502)
  • αi64 (Type: A860-0365)
  • αiAR128 (Type: A860-2010-T341)
  • αiA1000 (Type: A860-2000)

  • αA64 (Type: A860-0360-V501 and Type: A860-0360-T001)
  • αiA16000 (Type: A860-2001-T301)
  • βiA128 (Type: A860-2020-T301)

MITSUBISHI:

  • OSA17
  • OSA18-130
  • HA300NC-S
  • HC-SF
  • HF303BS-A48

Output Signals:

  • 1 x 5V TTL incremental encoder output with line driver and simulated Hall effect sectors, with user-configurable pulses per revolution
  • 1 line driver output for speed signal in frequency format (MAX 4000 kHz) / direction (Step / Direction)

Digital outputs to indicate:

  • Module OK (no alarm)
  • Communication initialised
  • Position initialised
  • Various communication or internal encoder errors
  • Analogue output to display the encoder’s angular position.

Special Functions:

  • Autoconfiguration: the module configures itself automatically by reading the specifications stored on the encoder
  • Zero Without Motion (ZWM): This function allows the ‘machine zero’ to be performed virtually, without actually moving the mechanical axis, speeding up recovery operations following a power cut or in emergency conditions
  • Encoder Phasing: Allows the phase shift between the encoder and the motor (electrical angle) to be adjusted directly via the software or dedicated digital inputs
