FUNCTIONAL MODULE / COMPONENT INTERFACES

Position & state feedback

Encoder feedback, a home reference and a travel limit serve different functions. Match each device to the receiving controller.

Functional breakdown

Position & state feedback functional diagram
Encoder pulses measure movement. A home switch establishes the machine reference and a travel limit marks the permitted travel boundary. An encoder index pulse does not by itself define the machine home position. Functional selection guide; selected-device documentation defines dimensions and wiring.
