Encoder Break-out Board
Encoder Break-out Board parts
The Encoder Break-out Board contains:
1. Encoder Break-out Board
2. 1 on 1 ribbon cable to connect to LCC or LAC controller encoder connector
The purpose of the Encoder Break-out Board is to provide an extra output of encoder signals. The
encoder signals (Gnd, A+, A-, B+,B-,I+,I-) are provided via a 7-fold screw-terminal. The LED’s on the
board show the encoder signals as they are transmitted from the actuator to the controller. The
break-out signals are provided to the screw terminal via a line driver (ST26C31BDR) providing a
RS422 level encoder signal. The ribbon cable to the controller is approx. 25 cm long.
