MSX-RDC-17 – Resolver-to-digital converter

The resolver-to-digital converter MSX-RDC-17  is a device for supplying and acquiring a resolver. It converts the position value given by the resolver into a digital incremental output signal. The resolution of the incremental encoder output can be defined using the switch on the front side of the MSX-RDC-17.

Description

The MSX-RDC-17 is a device for supplying and acquiring a resolver. It converts the position value given by the resolver into a digital incremental output signal. The resolution of the incremental encoder output can be defined using the switch on the front side of the MSX-RDC-17.

Features

Power supply

  • Nominal voltage: 5 V

Resolver output/input

  • Frequency: 10 kHz

Incremental encoder output

  • Output signals: incremental A+, A-, B+, B-, Index+, Index-
  • Output type: differential, RS422
  • Resolution: 10-/12-/14-/16-bit

Power supply connector

For the power supply of the MSX-RDC-17, a 4-pin screw terminal is fixed on the bottom side of the housing. The Ground and the supply pins are connected internally with each other. For less current flow over the terminals, please connect all four pins externally with each other!

Resolver connector

The resolver has to be connected to the 9-pin D-Sub female connector on the front side of the MSX-RDC-17.

Switch

On the front side of the MSX-RDC-17, a switch panel with three switches is installed. Switches 1 and 2 are used for setting the resolution of the incremental encoder output. Switch 3 allows you to reset the MSX-RDC-17. To do a reset, you have to switch on switch 3 for a short time and then switch it off again. Please do not leave switch 3 switched on permanently, because the MSX-RDC-17 is not functional with this switch position!

Incremental encoder output

The incremental encoder signals are available at the 9-pin D-Sub male connector of the MSX-RDC-17.

Environmental conditions

  • Operating temperature: 0-60°C (with forced ventilation)
  • Storage temperature: -25°C to +70°C
  • Relative air humidity at indoor installation: 50% at +40°C | 80% at +31°C

Index signal (incremental encoder output)

An Index pulse is generated when the absolute angular position passes through 0.

Intended use

The resolver-to-digital converter MSX-RDC-17 has to be used as electrical equipment for measurement, control and laboratory pursuant to the standard DIN EN IEC 61010-1. The power supply for the resolver-to-digital converter MSX-RDC-17 must fulfil the requirements of DIN EN IEC 62368-1 and DIN EN 55032 or IEC/CISPR 32
and DIN EN 55024 or IEC/CISPR 24.

Usage restrictions

The resolver-to-digital converter MSX-RDC-17 must not be used as a safety-related part (SRP).
The resolver-to-digital converter MSX-RDC-17 must not be used for safety-related functions, for example for emergency stop functions.
The resolver-to-digital converter MSX-RDC-17 must not be used in potentially explosive atmospheres.
The resolver-to-digital converter MSX-RDC-17 must not be used as electrical equipment according to the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU.

Limits of use

All safety information and the instructions on this datasheet must be followed to ensure proper intended use. Uses of the resolver-to-digital converter beyond these specifications are considered as improper use. The manufacturer is not liable for damages resulting from improper use. The resolver-to-digital converter must remain in its anti-static packaging until it is installed. Please do not delete the identification numbers of the resolver-to-digital converter or the warranty claim will be invalid
