- chap. 9.3.12 Multi-encoder interface EC (XG21) indicates hardware, pin assignment etc..
- chap. 11.5 for signal specifications etc..
- chap. 13.1 for connector type
The EC interface provides +5 V and +12 V DC supply voltage, your choice. The connector is a standard 15pin DSUB with sockets, so the encoder should either have the corresponding counterpart with pins or you use our DSUB connector type RGS0010/CUB1 R911379695 (order from your Rexroth sales representative).
The housing of this connector is metallized and provides basic shielding, so when assembling with a 3rd-party cable, make sure the cable shield is attached properly.
For other questions on functions, parameterization etc.. please consult the documentation of your runtime version through the online platform linked above.
