HEIDENHAIN encoders with optical
scanning incorporate measuring standards
of periodic structures known as
graduations.These graduations are applied
to a carrier substrate of glass or steel.
These precision graduations are
manufactured in various photolithographic
processes. Graduations are fabricated from
• extremely hard chromium lines on glass,
• matte-etched lines on gold-plated steel
tape, or
• three-dimensional structures on glass or
steel substrates.
The photolithographic manufacturing
processes developed by HEIDENHAIN
produce grating periods of typically 50 µm
to 4 µm.
These processes permit very fine grating
periods and are characterized by a high
definition and homogeneity of the line
edges. Together with the photoelectric
scanning method, this high edge definition
is a precondition for the high quality of the
output signals.
The master graduations are manufactured
by HEIDENHAIN on custom-built highprecision
ruling machines.
Measuring Principles

Circular graduations of incremental rotary encoders

Measuring Methods
With absolute measuring methods, the
position value is available from the encoder
immediately upon switch-on and can be
called at any time by the subsequent
electronics. There is no need to move the
axes to find the reference position. The
absolute position information is read from
the disk graduation, which consists of
several parallel graduation tracks.
The track with the finest grating period is
interpolated for the position value and at
the same time is used to generate an
optional incremental signal.
In singleturn encoders the absolute
position information repeats itself with
every revolution. Multiturn encoders
can also distinguish between revolutions.
With incremental measuring methods,
the graduation consists of a periodic grating
structure. The position information is
obtained by counting the individual
increments (measuring steps) from some
point of origin. Since an absolute reference
is required to ascertain positions, the
graduated disks are provided with an
additional track that bears a reference
mark.
The absolute position established by the
reference mark is gated with exactly one
measuring step.
The reference mark must therefore be
scanned to establish an absolute reference
or to find the last selected datum.
7
The accuracy of position measurement
with rotary encoders is mainly determined by
• the directional deviation of the radial
grating,
• the eccentricity of the graduated disk to
the bearing,
• the radial deviation of the bearing,
• the error resulting from the connection
with a shaft coupling (on rotary encoders
with stator coupling this error lies within
the system accuracy),
• the interpolation deviation during signal
processing in the integrated or external
interpolation and digitizing electronics.
For incremental rotary encoders with
lines count up to 5000:
The maximum directional deviation at 20 °C
ambient temperature and slow speed
(scanning frequency between 1 kHz and
2 kHz) lie within
± [angular seconds]
which equals
± grating period.
ROD rotary encoders with 6000 to 10 000
signal periods per revolution have a system
accuracy of ± 12 angular seconds.
Accuracy
The accuracy of absolute position values
from absolute rotary encoders is given in
the specifications for each model.
For absolute rotary encoders with
complementary incremental signals, the
accuracy depends on the line count:
Line count Accuracy
512 ± 60 angular seconds
2048 ± 20 angular seconds
8192 ± 10 angular seconds
The above accuracy data refer to incremental
measuring signals at an ambient temperature
of 20 °C (68 °F) and at slow speed.

Measuring standard
Photoelectric scanning
Most HEIDENHAIN encoders operate
using the principle of photoelectric
scanning. The photoelectric scanning of a
measuring standard is contact-free, and
therefore without wear. This method
detects even very fine lines, no more than
a few microns wide, and generates output
signals with very small signal periods.
The ECN, EQN, ERN and ROC, ROQ, ROD
rotary encoders use the imaging measuring
principle.
To put it simply, the imaging scanning
principle functions by means of projectedlight
signal generation: two graduations with
equal grating periods are moved relative to
each other—the scale and the scanning
reticle. The carrier material of the scanning
reticle is transparent, whereas the graduation
on the measuring standard may be applied
to a transparent or reflective surface.
When parallel light passes through a grating,
light and dark surfaces are projected at a
certain interval. An index grating with the
same grating period is located here. When
the two gratings move relative to each
other, the incident light is modulated. If the
gaps in the gratings are aligned, light
passes through. If the lines of one grating
coincide with the gaps of the other, no light
passes through. Photocells convert these
variations in light intensity into nearly
sinusoidal electrical signals. Practical
mounting tolerances for encoders with the
imaging scanning principle are achieved
with grating periods of 10 µm and larger.

ECN/EQN/ERN rotary encoders have
integrated bearings and a mounted stator
coupling. They compensate radial runout
and alignment errors without significantly
reducing the accuracy. The encoder shaft is
directly connected with the shaft to be
measured. During angular acceleration of
the shaft, the stator coupling must absorb
only that torque caused by friction in the
bearing. The stator coupling permits axial
motion of the measured shaft:
ECN/EQN/ERN 400: ±1mm
ERN 1000: ± 0.5 mm
ECN/ERN 100: ± 1.5 mm
Installation
The rotary encoder is slid by its hollow shaft
onto the measured shaft, and the rotor is
fastened by two screws or three eccentric
clamps. For rotary encoders with hollow
through shaft, the rotor can also be fastened
at the end opposite to the flange. Rotary
encoders of the ECN/EQN/ERN 1300 series
are particularly well suited for repeated
mounting (see brochure entitled Position
Encoders for Servo Drives.The stator is
connected without a centering collar on a
flat surface. The universal stator coupling
of the ECN/EQN/ERN 400 permits versatile
mounting, e.g. by its thread provided for
fastening it from outside to the motor cover.
Dynamic applications require the highest
possible natural frequencies fE of the system
(see also General Mechanical Information).
This is attained by connecting the shafts on
the flange side and fastening the coupling
by four cap screws or, on the ERN 1000,
with special washers (see Mounting
Accessories).
If the encoder shaft is subject to high loads,
for example from friction wheels, pulleys,
or sprockets, HEIDENHAIN recommends
mounting the ECN/EQN/ERN 400 with a
bearing assembly (see Mounting
Accessories).

ROC/ROQ/ROD rotary encoders have
integrated bearings and a solid shaft. The
encoder shaft is connected with the
measured shaft through a separate rotor
coupling. The coupling compensates axial
motion and misalignment (radial and
angular offset) between the encoder shaft
and measured shaft. This relieves the
encoder bearing of additional external loads
that would otherwise shorten its service
life. The HEIDENHAIN product program
offers a selection of diaphragm and metal
bellows couplings designed to connect the
rotor of the ROC/ROQ/ROD encoders (see
Shaft Couplings).
ROC/ROQ/ROD 400 series rotary encoders
permit bearing loads of up to 60 N (radial at
shaft end) at speeds up to 6000 rpm. These
encoders can therefore also be mounted
directly onto mechanical transfer elements
such as gears or friction wheels.
If the encoder shaft is subject to relatively
high loads, for example from friction wheels,
pulleys, or sprockets, HEIDENHAIN
recommends mounting the ECN/EQN/
ERN 400 with a bearing assembly.
Mounting Procedures
Rotary encoders with synchro flange are
fastened
• by the synchro flange with three fixing
clamps (see Mounting Accessories), or
• by the fastening thread on the flange face
and an adapter flange (for ROC/ROQ/
ROD 400 see Mounting Accessories).
The centering collar on the synchro flange
serves to center the encoder.
Rotary encoders with clamping flange are
fastened
• by the fastening thread on the flange face
and an adapter flange (see Mounting
Accessories) or
• by clamping at the clamping flange.
The encoder is centered in each case by its
clamping flange.

General Mechanical Information
UL certification
All rotary encoders and cables in this
brochure comply with the UL safety
regulations “ ” for the USA and
the “CSA” safety regulations for Canada.
They are listed under file no. E205635.
Acceleration
Encoders are subject to various types
of acceleration during operation and
mounting.
• The indicated maximum values for
vibration apply for frequencies of
55 to 2000 Hz (IEC 60068-2-6). Any
acceleration exceeding permissible
values, for example due to resonance
depending on the application and
mounting, might damage the encoder.
Comprehensive tests of the entire
system are required.
• The maximum permissible acceleration
values (semi-sinusoidal shock) for
shock and impact are valid for 6 ms
(IEC 60068-2-27). Under no circumstances
should a hammer or similar implement be
used to adjust or position the encoder.
• The permissible angular acceleration
for all encoders is over 105 rad/s2.
The maximum values for vibration and
shock indicate the limits up to which the
encoder can be operated without failure.
For an encoder to realize its highest
potential accuracy, the environmental and
operating conditions described under
Measuring Accuracymust be ensured.
If the application includes increased
shock and vibration loads, please ask for
comprehensive assistance from
HEIDENHAIN.
Natural frequencies
The rotor and the couplings of ROC/ROQ/
ROD rotary encoders, as also the stator and
stator coupling of ECN/EQN/ERN rotary
encoders, form a single vibrating springmass
system. The natural frequency fN
should be as high as possible. A prerequisite
for the highest possible natural
frequency on ROC/ROQ/ROD rotary
encoders is the use of a diaphragm
coupling with a high torsional rigidity C
(see Shaft Couplings).
fN= ·
fN: Natural frequency in Hz
C: Torsional rigidity of the coupling
in Nm/rad
I: Moment of inertia of the rotor in kgm2.
ECN/EQN/ERN Rotary encoders with their
stator couplings form a vibrating springmass
system whose Natural frequency fN
should be as high as possible. If radial
and/or axial acceleration forces are added,
the stiffness of the encoder bearings and
the encoder stators are also significant. If
such loads occur in your application,
HEIDENHAIN recommends consulting with
the main facility in Traunreut.
Protection against contact (IEC 60529)
After encoder installation, all rotating parts
must be protected against accidental
contact during operation.
Protection (IEC 60529)
Unless otherwise indicated, all rotary
encoders meet protection standard IP 67
according to IEC 60529. This includes
housings, cable outlets and flange sockets
when the connector is fastened.
The shaft inlet provides protection to IP 64
or IP 65. Splash water should not contain
any substances that would have harmful
effects on the encoder parts. If the standard
protection of the shaft inlet is not sufficient
(such as when the encoders are mounted
vertically), additional labyrinth seals should
be provided.
Many encoders are also available with
protection to class IP 66 for the shaft inlet.
The sealing rings used to seal the shaft are
subject to wear due to friction, the amount
of which depends on the specific
application.

Expendable parts
HEIDENHAIN encoders contain components
that are subject to wear, depending on the
application and manipulation. These include
in particular the following parts:
• LED light source
• Bearings in encoders with integral
bearing
• Shaft sealing rings for rotary and angular
encoders
• Cables subject to frequent flexing
System tests
Encoders from HEIDENHAIN are usually
integrated as components in larger
systems. Such applications require
comprehensive tests of the entire
system regardless of the specifications
of the encoder. The specifications given
in the brochure apply for the specific
encoder, not for the complete system.
Any operation of the encoder outside of
the specified range or for any other than
the intended applications is at the user’s
own risk.
In safety-oriented systems, verify the
position value of the encoder after
switch-on of the higher-level system.
Mounting
Work steps to be performed and
dimensions to be maintained during
mounting are specified solely in the
mounting instructions supplied with the
unit. All data in this catalog regarding
mounting are therefore provisional and
not binding; they do not become terms
of a contract.
13
Temperature ranges
For the unit in its packaging, the storage
temperature range is –30 to 80 °C
(–22 to 176 °F). The operating temperature
range indicates the temperatures that the
encoder may reach during operation in the
actual installation environment. The function
of the encoder is guaranteed within this
range (DIN 32878). The operating temperature
is measured on the face of the encoder
flange and must not be confused with the
ambient temperature.
The temperature of the encoder is
influenced by:
• Mounting conditions
• The ambient temperature
• Self-heating of the encoder
The self-heating of an encoder depends
both on its design characteristics (stator
coupling/solid shaft, shaft sealing ring, etc.)
and on the operating parameters (rotational
speed, power supply). Higher heat
generation in the encoder means that a
lower ambient temperature is required to
keep the encoder within its permissible
operating temperature range.
These tables show the approximate values
of self-heating to be expected in the
encoders. In the worst case, a combination
of operating parameters can exacerbate
self-heating, for example a 30 V power supply
and maximum rotational speed. Therefore,
the actual operating temperature should be
measured directly at the encoder if the
encoder is operated near the limits of
permissible parameters. Then suitable
measures should be taken (fan, heat sinks,
etc.) to reduce the ambient temperature far
enough so that the maximum permissible
operating temperature will not be exceeded
during continuous operation. For high
speeds at maximum permissible ambient
temperature, special versions are available
on request with reduced degree of
protection (without shaft seal and its
concomitant frictional heat).

Operating temperature –40 to 100 °C
The bearing assembly is capable of
absorbing large radial shaft loads. It is
therefore particularly recommended for
use in applications with friction wheels,
pulleys, or sprockets. It prevents overload
of the encoder bearing. On the encoder
side, the bearing assembly has a stub shaft
with 12-mm diameter and is well suited for
the ERN/ECN/EQN 400 encoders with blind
hollow shaft. Also, the threaded holes for
fastening the stator coupling are already
provided. The flange of the bearing
assembly has the same dimensions as the
clamping flange of the ROD 420/430 series.
The bearing assembly can be fastened
through the threaded holes on its face or
with the aid of the mounting flange or the
mounting bracket (see
Mounting
Accessories).

Incremental Signals 1 VPP
HEIDENHAIN encoders with 1 VPP
interface provide voltage signals that can
be highly interpolated.
The sinusoidal incremental signals A
and B are phase-shifted by 90° elec. and
have an amplitude of typically 1 VPP.
The illustrated sequence of output
signals—with B lagging A—applies for
the direction of motion shown in the
dimension drawing.
The reference mark signal R has a usable
component
Gof approx. 0.5 V. Next to
the reference mark, the output signal can
be reduced by up to 1.7 V to an idle level
H. This must not cause the subsequent
electronics to overdrive. In the lowered
signal level, signal peaks can also appear
with the amplitude
G.
The data on signal amplitude apply when
the power supply given in the specifications
is connected to the encoder. They refer to
a differential measurement at the 120 ohm
terminating resistor between the
associated outputs. The signal amplitude
decreases with increasing frequency. The
cutoff frequency indicates the scanning
frequency at which a certain percentage
of the original signal amplitude is
maintained:
• –3 dB cutoff frequency:
70%of the signal amplitude
• –6 dB cutoff frequency:
50%of the signal amplitude
Interpolation/resolution/measuring
step
The output signals of the 1 VPP interface
are usually interpolated in the subsequent
electronics in order to attain sufficiently
high resolutions. For velocity control,
interpolation factors are commonly over
1000 in order to receive usable velocity
information even at low speeds.
Measuring steps for position
measurement are recommended in the
specifications. For special applications,
other resolutions are also possible.

Interfaces
Incremental Signals TTL
HEIDENHAIN encoders with TTL
interface incorporate electronics that
digitize sinusoidal scanning signals with or
without interpolation.
The incremental signals are transmitted
as the square-wave pulse trains Ua1 and
Ua2, phase-shifted by 90° elec. The
reference mark signal consists of one
or more reference pulses Ua0, which are
gated with the incremental signals. In
addition, the integrated electronics produce
their inverse signals ,
and for
noise-proof transmission. The illustrated
sequence of output signals—with Ua2
lagging Ua1—applies for the direction of
motion shown in the dimension drawing.
The fault-detection signal indicates
fault conditions such as breakage of the
power line or failure of the light source. It
can be used for such purposes as machine
shut-off during automated production.
The distance between two successive
edges of the incremental signals Ua1 and
Ua2 through 1-fold, 2-fold or 4-fold
evaluation is one measuring step.
The subsequent electronics must be
designed to detect each edge of the
square-wave pulse. The minimum edge
separation alisted in the Specifications
applies for the illustrated input circuitry with
a cable length of 1 m, and refers to a
measurement at the output of the
differential line receiver. Propagation-time
differences in cables additionally reduce the
edge separation by 0.2 ns per meter of
cable length. To prevent counting error,
design the subsequent electronics to
process as little as 90% of the resulting
edge separation. The max. permissible
shaft speed or traversing velocity must
never be exceeded.
The permissible cable length for
transmission of the TTL square-wave signals
to the subsequent electronics depends on
the edge separation a.It is max. 100 m, or
50 m for the fault detection signal. This
requires, however, that the power supply
(see Specifications) be ensured at the
encoder. The sensor lines can be used to
measure the voltage at the encoder and, if
required, correct it with an automatic
system (remote sense power supply).

Input circuitry of the subsequent electronics
As a bidirectional interface, the EnDat
(Encoder Data) interface for absolute
encoders is capable of producing absolute
position values as well as requesting or
updating information stored in the encoder.
Thanks to the serial transmission method
only four signal lines are required. The
type of transmission (position values or
parameters) is selected by mode commands
that the subsequent electronics send to the
encoder. The data are transmitted in
synchronism with the clock signal from
the subsequent electronics.
Benefits of the EnDat Interface
• One interface for all absolute encoders,
whereby the subsequent electronics can
automatically distinguish between EnDat
and SSI.
• Complementary output of incremental
signals (optional for highly dynamic
control loops).
• Automatic self-configuration during
encoder installation, since all information
required by the subsequent electronics is
already stored in the encoder.
• Reduced wiring cost
For standard applications, six lines are
sufficient.
• High system security through alarms
and messages that can be evaluated in
the subsequent electronics for monitoring
and diagnosis. No additional lines are
required.
• Minimized transmission times through
adaptation of the data word length to the
resolution of the encoder and through
high clock frequencies.
• High transmission reliability through
cyclic redundancy checks.
• Datum shifting through an offset value
in the encoder.
• It is possible to form a redundant
system, since the absolute value and
incremental signals are output
independently from each other.

Function of the EnDat Interface
The EnDat interface outputs absolute
position values, optionally makes
incremental signals available, and permits
reading from and writing to the memory
in the encoder.
Selecting the transmission type
Position values and memory contents are
transmitted serially through the DATA lines.
The type of information to be transmitted
is selected by mode commands. Mode
commands define the content of the information
that follows. Every mode command
consists of 3 bits. To ensure transmission
reliability, each bit is also transmitted
inverted. If the encoder detects an erroneous
mode transmission, it transmits an error
message.
The following mode commands are
available:
• Encoder transmit absolute position value
• Selection of the memory area
• Encoder transmit/receive parameters of
the last defined memory area
• Encoder transmit test values
• Encoder receive test commands
• Encoder receive RESET
Parameters
The encoder provides several memory
areas for parameters. These can be read
from by the subsequent electronics, and
some can be written to by the encoder
manufacturer, the OEM, or even the end
user. Certain memory areas can be
write-protected.
The parameters, which in most cases
are set by the OEM, largely define
the function of the encoder and the
EnDat interface. When the encoder is
exchanged, it is therefore essential that its
parameter settings are correct. Attempts to
configure machines without including OEM
data can result in malfunctions. If there is
any doubt as to the correct parameter
settings, the OEM should be consulted.
Memory Areas
Parameters of the encoder manufacturer
This write-protected memory area contains
all information specific to the encoder,
such as encoder type (linear/angular,
singleturn/multiturn, etc.), signal periods,
number of position values per revolution,
transmission format of absolute position
values, direction of rotation, maximum
permissible speed, accuracy dependent on
shaft speeds, support from warnings and
alarms, part number, and serial number. This
information forms the basis for automatic
configuration.
Parameters of the OEM
In this freely definable memory area, the
OEM can store his information. For
example, the “electronic ID label” of the
motor in which the encoder is integrated,
indicating the motor model, maximum
current rating, etc.
Operating parameters
This area is available to the customer for a
datum shift. It can be protected against
overwriting.
Operating status
This memory area provides detailed alarms
or warnings for diagnostic purposes. Here it
is also possible to activate write protection
for the OEM-parameter and operating
parameter memory areas, and interrogate
its status.
Once activated, the write protection cannot
be reversed.
Monitoring and Diagnostic Functions
Alarms and warnings
The EnDat interface enables comprehensive
monitoring of the encoder without requiring
an additional transmission line.
An alarm becomes active if there is a
malfunction in the encoder that is presumably
causing incorrect position values. At the
same time, an alarm bit is set in the data
word. Alarm conditions include:
• Light unit failure
• Signal amplitude too low
• Error in calculation of position value
• Power supply too high/low
• Current consumption is excessive
Warnings indicate that certain tolerance
limits of the encoder have been reached or
exceeded—such as shaft speed or the limit
of light source intensity compensation
through voltage regulation—without implying
that the measured position values are
incorrect. This function makes it possible
to issue preventive warnings in order to
minimize idle time.
The alarms and warnings supported by the
respective encoder are saved in the
“parameters of the encoder manufacturer”
memory area.
Reliable data transfer
To increase the reliability of data transfer,
a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is
performed through the logical processing
of the individual bit values of a data word.
This 5-bit long CRC concludes every
transmission. The CRC is decoded in the
receiver electronics and compared with the
data word. This largely eliminates errors
caused by disturbances during data transfer.

Interrupted clock
The interrupted clock is intended particularly
for time-clocked systems such as closed
control loops. At the end of the data word
the clock signal is set to HIGH level. After
10 to 30 µs ( tm), the data line falls back to
LOW. Then a new data transmission can
begin by starting the clock.
Continuous clock
For applications that require fast acquisition
of the measured value, the EnDat interface
can have the clock run continuously.
Immediately after the last CRC bit has been
sent, the DATA line is switched to HIGH for
one clock cycle, and then to LOW. The
new position value is saved with the very
next falling edge of the clock and is output
in synchronism with the clock signal
immediately after the start bit and alarm bit.
Because the mode command encoder
transmits position valueis needed only
before the first data transmission, the
continuous-clock transfer mode reduces
the length of the clock-pulse group by
10 periods per position value.
Data transfer
The two types of EnDat data transfer are
position value transfer and parameter
transfer.
Control Cycles for Transfer of Position
Values
The clock signal is transmitted by the
subsequent electronics to synchronize the
data output from the encoder. When not
transmitting, the clock signal defaults to
HIGH. The transmission cycle begins with
the first falling edge. The measured values
are saved and the position value calculated.
After two clock pulses (2T), the subsequent
electronics send the mode command
Encoder transmit position value.
After successful calculation of the absolute
position value (tcal—see table), the start bit
begins the data transmission from the
encoder to the subsequent electronics.
The subsequent alarm bit is a common
signal for all monitored functions and serves
for failure monitoring. It becomes active if a
malfunction of the encoder might result in
incorrect position values. The exact cause
of the trouble is saved in the encoder’s
“operating status” memory where it can
be interrogated in detail.
The absolute position value is then
transmitted, beginning with the LSB. Its
length depends on the encoder being used.
It is saved in the encoder manufacturer’s
memory area. Since EnDat does not need
to fill superfluous bits with zeros as in SSI,
the transmission time of the position value
to the subsequent electronics is minimized.
Data transmission is concluded with the
cyclic redundancy check (CRC).

Control cycles for transfer of parameters
(mode command 001110)
Before parameter transfer, the memory
area is specified with the mode command
Select memory areaand a subsequent
memory-range-select code (MRS). The
possible memory areas are stored in the
parameters of the encoder manufacturer.
Due to internal access times to the
individual memory areas, the time tac may
reach 12 ms.
Reading parameters from the encoder
(mode command 100011)
After selecting the memory area, the
subsequent electronics transmit a complete
communications protocol beginning with
the mode command Encoder transmit
parameters,followed by an 8-bit address
and 16 bits with random content. The
encoder answers with the repetition of the
address and 16 bits with the contents of
the parameter. The transmission cycle is
concluded with a CRC check.
Writing parameters to the encoder
(mode command 011100)
After selecting the memory area, the

and a 16-bit parameter value. The encoder
answers by repeating the address and the
contents of the parameter. The CRC check
concludes the cycle.

Synchronization of the serially
transmitted code value with the
incremental signal
Absolute encoders with EnDat interface
can exactly synchronize serially transmitted
absolute position values with incremental
values. With the first falling edge (latch signal)
of the CLOCK signal from the subsequent
electronics, the scanning signals of the
individual tracks in the encoder and counter
are frozen, as are also the A/D converters
for subdividing the sinusoidal incremental
signals in the subsequent electronics.
The code value transmitted over the serial
interface unambiguously identifies one
incremental signal period. The position value
is absolute within one sinusoidal period of
the incremental signal. The subdivided
incremental signal can therefore be appended
in the subsequent electronics to the serially
transmitted code value.
After power on and initial transmission of
position values, two redundant position
values are available in the subsequent electronics.
Since encoders with EnDat interface
guarantee a precise synchronization—
regardless of cable length—of the serially
transmitted absolute value with the
incremental signals, the two values can be
compared in the subsequent electronics.
This monitoring is possible even at high
shaft speeds thanks to the EnDat interface’s
short transmission times of less than 50 µs.
This capability is a prerequisite for modern
machine design and safety concepts.

PROFIBUS-DP
PROFIBUS is a nonproprietary, open field
bus in accordance with the international
EN 50170 standard. The connecting of
sensors through field bus systems minimizes
the cost of cabling and the number of lines
between encoder and subsequent
electronics.
Topology and bus assignment
The PROFIBUS-DP is designed as a linear
structure. It permits transfer rates up to
12 Mbit/s. Both mono-master and multi
master systems are possible. Each master
can serve only its own slaves (polling). The
slaves are polled cyclically by the master.
Slaves are, for example, sensors such as
absolute rotary encoders, linear encoders,
or also control devices such as motor
frequency inverters.
Physical characteristics
The electrical features of the PROFIBUS-DP
comply with the RS-485 standard. The bus
connection is a shielded, twisted two-wire
cable with active bus terminations at each
end.

Self-configuration
The characteristics of the HEIDENHAIN
encoders required for system configuration
are included as “electronic data sheets”—
also called device identification records
(GSD)—in the gateway. These device
identification records hold the complete
and exact characteristics of a device in a
precisely defined format, which permits the
simple and application-friendly integration
of the devices into the bus system.
Configuration
PROFIBUS-DP devices can be configured
and the parameters assigned to fit the
requirements of the user. Once these
settings are made in the configuration tool
with the aid of the GSD file, they are saved
in the master. It then configures the
PROFIBUS devices every time the network
starts up. This simplifies exchanging the
devices: there is no need to edit or reenter
the configuration data.

PROFIBUS-DP profile
The PNO (PROFIBUS user organization) has
defined a standard, nonproprietary profile
for the connection of absolute encoders to
the PROFIBUS-DP, thus ensuring high
flexibility and simple configuration on all
systems that use this standardized profile.
You can request the profile for absolute
encoders from the PNO in Karlsruhe,
Germany, under the order number 3.062.
There are two classes defined in the
profile, whereby class 1 provides minimum
support, and class 2 allows additional, in
part optional functions.
Supported functions
Particularly important in decentralized field
bus systems are the diagnostic functions
(e.g. warnings and alarms), and the
electronic ID label with information on the
type of encoder, resolution, and measuring
range. But also programming functions
such as counting direction reversal, preset/
zero shift and changing the resolution
(scaling) are possible. The operating time
of the encoder can also be recorded.
Operating status
In addition to the transfer of the diagnostic
functions over the PROFIBUS-DP, the
operating statuses
• power supply, and
• bus status
are displayed by LEDs on the rear of the
encoder.

Connection
The absolute rotary encoders with integrated
PROFIBUS-DP interface feature
screw terminals for the PROFIBUS- DP and
the power supply. The cable is connected
over three PG7 screw connections on the
bus housing. Here the coding switches are
located for addressing (0 to 99) and
selecting the terminating resistor, which is
to be activated if the rotary encoder is the
last participant on the PROFIBUS-DP. All
connections and controls are easily
accessible in the bus housing.
Connection via gateway
All absolute encoders from HEIDENHAIN
with EnDat interface are suitable for
PROFIBUS-DP. The encoder is electrically
connected through a gateway. The
complete interface electronics are integrated
in the gateway, which offers a number of
benefits:
• Simple connection of the field bus cable,
since the terminals are easily accessible.
• Encoder dimensions remain small.
• No temperature restrictions for the
encoder. All temperature-sensitive
components are in the gateway.
• No bus interruption when an encoder is
exchanged.
Besides the EnDat encoder connector, the
gateway provides connections for the
PROFIBUS and the power supply. In the
gateway there are coding switches for
addressing and selecting the terminating
resistor.
Because the gateway is connected directly
to the bus lines, the cable to the encoder is
not a stub line, although it can be up to
150 meters (492 ft) long.

The absolute position value, beginning

with a CLOCK signal from the control. The
SSI standard data word length for singleturn
absolute encoders is 13 bits, and for multiturn
absolute encoders 25 bits. In addition to
the absolute position values, sinusoidal
incremental signals with 1 VPP levels are
transmitted. For signal description, see

Control cycle for complete data word
When not transmitting, the clock and data
lines are on high level. The current position
value is stored on the first falling edge of
the clock. The stored data is then clocked
out on the first rising edge.
After transmission of a complete data
word, the data line remains low for a period
of time (t3) until the encoder is ready for
interrogation of a new value. If a falling
clock edge is received within t3, the same
data will be output once again.
If the data output is interrupted (CLOCK =
high for t t3), a new position value will be
stored on the next falling edge of the clock,
and on the subsequent rising edge clocked
out to the subsequent electronics.

The absolute position value, beginning
with the Most Significant Bit, is transferred
over the data lines (DATA) in synchronism
with a CLOCK signal from the control. A
number of parameters and functions are
programmable with the aid of the included
programming software.
In addition to the absolute position values,
sinusoidal incremental signals with 1 VPP
levels are transmitted. For signal description,
see 1 VPP Incremental Signals.
A fault detection signal indicates fault
conditions such as an interruption in the
supply lines, failure of the light source, etc.
Programmable Functions and Parameters
The encoders are programmed with
HEIDENHAIN programming software on a
PC. It also enables the user to check
defined values. Some functions that do not
affect the interface configuration can also
be activated by hardware through jumpers
on dedicated lines.

General Electrical Information
Cable
Lengths
The cable lengths listed in the Specifications
apply only for HEIDENHAIN cables and the
recommended input circuitry of subsequent
electronics.
Durability
All encoders use polyurethane (PUR) cables.
PUR cables are resistant to oil, hydrolysis and
microbes in accordance with VDE0472. They
are free of PVC and silicone and comply with
UL safety directives. The UL certification
AWM STYLE 20963 80 °C 30 V E63216 is
documented on the cable.
Temperature range
HEIDENHAIN cables can be used:
for rigid configuration –40 to 85 °C
for frequent flexing –10 to 85 °C
Cables with limited resistance to hydrolysis
and microbes are rated for up to 100 °C.
Bending radius
The permissible bending radii Rdepend on
the cable diameter and the configuration:

Electrically permissible speed/
Traversing speed
The maximum permissible shaft speed or
traversing velocity of an encoder is derived
from
• the mechanically permissible shaft speed/
traversing velocity (if listed in Specifications)
and
• the electrically permissible shaft speed/
traversing velocity.
For encoders with sinusoidal output
signals, the electrically permissible shaft
speed/traversing velocity is limited by
the –3dB/ –6dB cutoff frequency or the
permissible input frequency of the
subsequent electronics.
For encoders with square-wave signals,
the electrically permissible shaft speed/
traversing velocity is limited by
– The encoder’s maximum permissible
scanning/output frequency fmax
and
– the minimum permissible edge
separation afor the subsequent
electronics
For angular or rotary encoders
nmax =
fmax · 60 · 103
For linear encoders
vmax = fmax · SP· 60 · 10–3
where
nmax: electrically permissible speed
in rpm,
vmax: Electrically permissible
traversing speed in m/min
fmax: Maximum scanning/output
frequency of the encoder or
input frequency of the
subsequent electronics in kHz,
z: Line count of the angular or
rotary encoder per 360 °
SP: Signal period of the linear
encoder in µm
Typically 500 ms
UPP
Initial transient response of the
supply voltage e.g. 5 V ± 5 %
Power supply
The encoders require a stabilized dc
voltage UP as power supply. The respective
specifications state the required power
supply and the current consumption. The
permissible ripple content of the dc voltage
is:
• High frequency interference
UPP < 250 mV with dU/dt > 5 V/µs
• Low frequency fundamental ripple
UPP < 100 mV
The values apply as measured at the
encoder, i.e., without cable influences. The
voltage can be monitored and adjusted with
the device’s sensor lines. If a controllable
power supply is not available, the voltage
drop can be halved by switching the sensor
lines parallel to the corresponding power
lines.
Calculation of the voltage drop:
U= 2 · 10–3 ·

encoder in mA

Reliable Signal Transmission
Electromagnetic compatibility/
CE compliance
When properly installed, HEIDENHAIN
encoders fulfill the requirements for
electromagnetic compatibility according to
89/336/EEC with respect to the generic
standards for:
• Noise immunity IEC 61000-6-2:
Specifically:
– ESD IEC 61000-4-2
– Electromagnetic fields IEC 61000-4-3
– Burst IEC 61000-4-4
– Surge IEC 61000-4-5
– Conducted disturbances
IEC 61000-4-6
– Power frequency magnetic fields
IEC 61000-4-8
– Pulse magnetic fields IEC 61000-4-9
• Interference IEC 61000-6-4:
Specifically:
– For industrial, scientific and medical
(ISM) equipment IEC 55011
– For information technology
equipment IEC 55022
Transmission of measuring signals—
electrical noise immunity
Noise voltages arise mainly through
capacitive or inductive transfer. Electrical
noise can be introduced into the system
over signal lines and input or output
terminals. Possible sources of noise are:
• Strong magnetic fields from transformers
and electric motors
• Relays, contactors and solenoid valves
• High-frequency equipment, pulse
devices, and stray magnetic fields from
switch-mode power supplies
• AC power lines and supply lines to the
above devices
Isolation
The encoder housings are isolated against
all circuits.
Rated surge voltage: 500 V
(preferred value as per VDE 0110 Part 1)
Protection against electrical noise
The following measures must be taken to
ensure disturbance-free operation:
• Use only original HEIDENHAIN cables.
Watch for voltage attenuation on the
supply lines.
• Use connectors or terminal boxes with
metal housings. Do not conduct any
extraneous signals.
• Connect the housings of the encoder,
connector, terminal box and evaluation
electronics through the shield of the
cable. Connect the shielding in the area
of the cable inlets to be as induction-free
as possible (short, full-surface contact).
• Connect the entire shielding system with
the protective ground.
• Prevent contact of loose connector
housings with other metal surfaces.
• The cable shielding has the function of
an equipotential bonding conductor. If
compensating currents are to be expected
within the entire system, a separate
equipotential bonding conductor must be
provided. See also EN 50178/4.98
Chapter 5.2.9.5 regarding “protective
connection lines with small cross section.”
• Connect HEIDENHAIN position encoders
only to subsequent electronics whose
power supply is generated through double
or strengthened insulation against line
voltage circuits. See also IEC 364-4-41:
1992, modified Chapter 411 regarding
“protection against both direct and
indirect touch” (PELV or SELV).
• Do not lay signal cables in the direct
vicinity of interference sources (inductive
consumers such as contacts, motors,
frequency inverters, solenoids, etc.).
• Sufficient decoupling from interferencesignal-
conducting cables can usually be
achieved by an air clearance of 100 mm
(4 in.) or, when cables are in metal ducts,
by a grounded partition.
• A minimum spacing of 200 mm (8 in.) to
inductors in switch-mode power supplies
is required. See also EN 50178/4.98
Chapter 5.3.1.1 regarding cables and lines,
EN 50174-2 /09.01, Chapter 6.7 regarding
grounding and potential compensation.
• When using multiturn encoders in
electromagnetic fields greater than
10 mT, HEIDENHAIN recommends
consulting with the main facility in
Traunreut.
Both the cable shielding and the metal
housings of encoders and subsequent
electronics have a shielding function. The
housings must have the same potential
and be connected to the main signal ground
over the machine chassis or by means of a
separate potential compensating line.
Potential compensating lines should have
a minimum cross section of 6 mm2 (Cu).
