Incremental rotary encoder working principle and installation steps
Working principle of incremental rotary encoder
Incremental rotary encoders do not have a fixed starting zero point, and output pulses that are proportional to the increase in the angle of rotation. A counter is needed to count the pulses. Each time a light-transmitting area is rotated, a pulse signal is sent out, and then the pulse signal is counted by the high-speed counter of the PLC to obtain the measurement result.
What is the difference between a rotary incremental encoder and an absolute encoder
Incremental value rotary encoder, also called circular grating, pulse code disc, from these names, it is a circular grating engraved code disc. After rotating, it generates pulses through the change of luminous flux and counts pulses by external equipment.

Working principle of incremental encoder
The incremental rotary encoder converts the timing and phase relationship of the angle code disc through two photosensitive receiving tubes, and obtains the increase (positive direction) or decrease (negative direction) of the angular displacement of the angle code disc.
[Experience] What signal output does the absolute value signal encoder have (1, 2)
I have introduced many times before that there are two types of cable displacement sensor output, digital signal output and analog signal output, and digital signal output is also divided into incremental pulse signal output and absolute value signal output. Today, I will introduce the system. Which signals are also divided into absolute value signals.
