The SMC30 Sensor Module Cabinet-Mounted is required to evaluate the encoder signals of motors without a DRIVE-CLiQ interface. External encoders can also be connected via the SMC30.

The following encoder signals can be evaluated:

• Incremental encoders TTL/HTL with/without open-circuit detection (open-circuit detection is only available with bipolar signals)
• SSI encoder with TTL/HTL incremental signals
• SSI encoder without incremental signals

The motor temperature can also be detected with KTY84-130 or PTC thermistors.
