This board is used when it is necessay to adapt the encoder electronic characteristics to the controller one than one board reducing drastically wiring by mounting boards in a single support. Main functions of the EMB are output signal splitting and adaption of output stages. For instance, it happens to have an encoder with a 5 Vdc output and a control accepting only 24 Vdc data. It may also happen to use an encoder connected with a controller at the same voltage, but having different electronics. It can solve a wide range of problems: check the ordering code in the back page to fi nd further information. On the board there can be present up to two different voltages and it must be supplied through the X4 connector with the higher voltage used. Moreover, it is possible to obtain up to eight outputs by assembling more.
This board is used when is necessary to carry out a selected signal among a maximum of three inputs. The EMD board accepts as input signals coming from a maximum of three encoders and supplies as output the signals electronically selected of one of these. The output signal is selected by opportunately suppling the two inputs, IN1 and IN2, according to the working diagram (see back side). Output and encoder type to be connected have to be within the range described in the ordering code. All electronic types of the connected encoders have to be the same. Moreover, the EMD supplies three contacts normally open switching to close when the respective input is selected.
