Using the Optional Encoder
e STM23R-2NE and STM23R-3NE each come with a 1000-line, incremental encoder assembled to the rear
sha of the unit. e A, B and Index (Z) channel signals of this encoder can be connected back to the external
controller for position verication and enhanced performance, depending on the features of the controller. To
facilitate connecting the encoder signals to your external controller you should purchase cable part number
3004-263.
Incremental encoder specications:
• 10-pin connector provides the following signals (pin assignments): Ground (1, 2), Index− (3), Index+ (4),
• A− (5), A+ (6), +5VDC power (7, 8), B− (9) and B+ (10).
• Power supply requirements: 5 VDC at 56 mA typical, 59 mA max.
• e encoder’s internal dierential line driver (26C31) can source and sink 20 mA at TTL levels. e recom-
mended receiver is industry standard 26C32.
• Maximum noise immunity is achieved when the dierential receiver is terminated with a 110-ohm resistor in
series with a .0047 microfarad capacitor placed across each dierential pair. e capacitor simply conserves
power; otherwise power consumption would increase by approximately 20mA per pair, or 60mA for 3
pairs.
• If making your own cable to connect the encoder signals to your controller, we recommend using a shielded
cable with four or ve twisted pairs for improved noise immunity.
• Max encoder frequency is 100,000 cycles per second.
