Description

Many systems call for some kind of feedback on rotating on linear movements. Howver, most of those are not that critical to warrant expensive encoder solutions. For such situations, this encoder interace takes readings from one or a pair of simple reflective photo detectors or photo interruptors and sends it onto a CANopen interface.

Functionality

Resistance sensor CAN-bus node
  • One opto-coupler connection for single pulse encoder mode (no direction)
  • Two opto-coupler connections for incremental encoder mode
  • Capture min/max/avg at slow message rate
  • Conversion of field value (FV) to process value (PV) in RPM, speed, distance, etc
  • CANopen® fieldbus, encoder device profile CiA 406
  • Possibility for branding or custom firmware with specific behaviour

Network functions (via a CANopen gateway/master)

  • Stream data via JSON
  • View data directly via HTML, no cloud needed
  • Logging to micro-SD card
  • Bus ID assigned via serial number
  • Configuration & firmware update
