MU-332
The MU-332 modules are especially designed for the processing of quadrature signals from incremental rotary sensors (abbreviation IRC). However, the input signals encoder supports variety of other generally applicable counter modes.
The input circuits are designed for signals with RS-422 or TTL levels, and are equipped with digital low-pass filters to suppress "ringing" on input signals.
The encoder can be configured in-to following modes.
- quadrature X1, X2 and X4 (two signals for phases, one signal for reset)
- "up/down" (three signals for incrementation, decrementation and reset)
- "count/dir" (three signals pulse for counting, count direction and reset)
- "count/gate" (three signals for incrementation, counter blocking and the reset)
The output of the encoder is connected to the 32-bit counter capable to unidirectional and bidirectional counting with configurable length (counting range from 0÷1 up to 0÷4294967295).
The MU-332 modules are equipped with a separate 5V voltage power source for powering external sensors.
In case of a power-off, the counter value is not backed up; after power-on the counter started with counting from preconfigured value.
Note: In applications where the counter value backup function is required, modules MU-132 or MU-133 can be used.
