Type
Description
3 If set, don’t use index input at all. Useful when the index input is being used by a different
encoder interface.
EnDat Encoder (Type 11)
Bits
Description
0-5
Number of bits of single turn data available from encoder.
8-12
Number of bits of multi-turn data available from encoder.
16 Set if analog inputs are supplied by encoder.
17
If set, use multi-mode port.
18
If set, read position using EnDat 2.2 style commands rather than the default 2.1 style.
20-23
Number of least significant bits of the encoder reading to discard.
SSI Encoder (Type 12)
Bits
Description
0-5
Number of bits of position data available. A value of zero is invalid for these bits.
8-11
Number of extra bits sent with position data.
12
If set, ignore the first bit of data sent by the encoder.
13 If set, encoder outputs position data using Gray code.
14
If set, pull clock low briefly after data (custom for Codechamp encoder).
15
If set, data is sent LSB first.
16-21
Encoder bit rate in 100 kHz units. If zero, default to 1 MHz.
22
If set, use setting of encoder counts/rev to determine how many data bits to use.
23
If set, extra status bits are before position data. If clear, extra status bits are after position
data. Default is clear.
24
If set, first bit sent is 'data valid' bit.
BiSS (Type 13)
Bits
Description
0-5
Number of bits of single turn data.
8-12
Number of bits of multi-turn data.
15 If set, assume the encoder position data wraps after the number of encoder counts
programmed in parameter Motor Encoder Counts (0x62).
16
Set for mode-C encoder format.
20
Set if encoder error and warning bits are active low.
