Conveyor Encoder Configuration

Before you can create any conveyors in a project, you must add conveyor encoders to the system. Each physical conveyor must have an encoder.

Before setting up, wire the encoder to the PULSE IN connector on the control unit. If using a Controller without a PULSE IN connector, install one PG board for every four encoders and wire the encoders to the board(s).

If the encoder is wired using a PG board, set up the conveyor encoder. If the encoder is wired to the PULSE IN connector, no setup is required.

To define system encoders in Epson RC+, select [Setup]-[System Configuration] and select the [Conveyor Encoders].

Click the [Add] button to add an encoder. Encoders are added in the order of Axis number.

You can delete the last encoder in the list. Select it, then click the [Delete] button.
