Doubt on How to set an encoder DSF60B-00500 on V570

[JonathanAlves]

Hello Everyone,

I have just started working with Unitronics equipment and now I have to put a DSF60B to operate with a V570, the problem I am having is while the signal form the encoder is high the plc keep on inrementing value instead of treating it as a single pulse signal. To solve that i am using a Positive Transition Rise as my inputs and Incremental Block to read the signal from the Enconder.

I have been told, and also imagined, that might be a better solution, just couldnt find it. I would appreciate if somebody could help me out with it.

 

Thank you in advance.

Why are looking for a better solution? That's pretty much why you have positive transition contacts available as a programming option.

What is the I/O module the encoder is connected to?  Typically on a V570 you use a Snap IO module which allows some of the inputs to be configured as encoder type.  These are automatically high speed and take care of the rising and falling edges for you.

Thank you for the answer mr Tauser,

I manage to work it away but i cant remember if i used your answer although it was exactly what i did back then, so i believe i learned it from you.
