A/B/Z-phase differential output type (Note 5, 8)

Not designated A/B/Z-phase differential output method Notes: 1. Contact the relevant linear encoder manufacturer for details on operating environment and specifications of the linear encoder such as ambient temperature, vibration resistance and IP rating. 2. The rated speed of the linear encoder is applicable when the linear encoder is used with MR-J4 series servo amplifier. The values may differ from the manufacturers' specifications. 3. The length is specified by the linear encoder manufacturers. The maximum length of the encoder cable between linear encoder and servo amplifier is 30 m. 4. When using the four-wire type linear encoder in fully closed loop control system, use MR-J4-_GF_-RJ/MR-J4-_B_-RJ/MR-J4-_A_-RJ servo amplifier. When using four-wire type linear encoder with the scale measurement function, use MR-J4-_GF_-RJ/MR-J4-_B_-RJ servo amplifier. 5. When using the A/B/Z-phase differential output type linear encoder, use MR-J4-_GF_-RJ/MR-J4-_B_-RJ/MR-J4-_A_-RJ servo amplifier. 6. Select the linear encoder within this range. 7. Use MR-J4-_B_(-RJ)/MR-J4W_-_B/MR-J4-_A_(-RJ) servo amplifier with software version B3 or later. 8. Output A-phase, B-phase, and Z-phase signals in the differential line driver. The phase difference of the A-phase pulse and the B-phase pulse, and the width of the Z-phase pulse must be 200 ns or wider. The output pulse of A-phase and B-phase of the A/B/Z-phase differential output linear encoder is in the multiply-by-four count method. Home position return is not possible with a linear encoder without Z-phase. - 0.001 μm to 5 μm (Note 6) Depends on the linear encoder Depends on the linear encoder
