Motor encoder and temperature signals must be connected to the corresponding Motor Module or Power Module and external encoders to the Control Unit. However, the DRIVE?CLiQ connections can also be bundled via DRIVE?CLiQ Hub Modules.

Safety Integrated

Suitable encoders are required in order to allow unrestricted use of Safety Integrated Extended Functions.

Belt-driven motor

Unfavorable material combinations generate static electricity between the belt pulley and the belt. Electrostatic charging must be prevented, since this can discharge via the motor shaft and the encoder, thereby causing disturbances in the encoder signals. One remedy is to use an anti-static belt.
