SlotX Encoder Lines Per Revolution
SlotX.EncoderLinesPerRev
This parameter is only available when an SM-Universal
Encoder Plus option module has been populated in one of
the Unidrive SP slots.
The X in “SlotX” defines the slot number that the
SM-Universal Encoder Plus option module has been fitted
in. For example, if the Universal Encoder Plus option
module is in slot 2, the parameter would be named
Slot2.EncoderLinesPerRev.
The EncoderLinesPerRev defines the resolution of the
encoder hardware. This is equal to the number of lines on
the encoder (pre-quadrature value). The range for the
Lines Per Rev is 0 to 50000. This parameter is found on the
SlotX view after a SM-Universal Encoder Plus option
module has been selected for Module Type. For more
information on this parameter, please refer to the
SM-Universal Encoder Plus user guide (parameter x.10).
SlotX Simulated Encoder Denominator
SlotX.EncoderSimulationDenominator
This parameter is only available when an SM-Universal
Encoder Plus option module has been populated in one of
the Unidrive SP slots.
The X in “SlotX” defines the slot number that the
SM-Universal Encoder Plus module has been fitted in. For
example, if the Universal Encoder Plus module is in slot 2,
the parameter would be named:
Slot2.EncoderSimulationDenominator.
The SM-Universal Encoder Plus is capable of sending out
a simulated encoder signal. To configure the simulated
encoder signal, the user specifies a source parameter and
a ratio multiplier. The multiplier allows the user to scale the
source parameter before it is sent out the “Encoder Out”
port. The multiplier is made up of a numerator parameter
and a denominator parameter. The formula for the value
sent out the encoder output is as follows:
Output = Enc. Sim. Source * (Enc. Sim. Numerator / Enc.
Sim. Denominator)
The range for the Denominator is 0.0001 to 3.0000. This
parameter is found on the SlotX view after a SM-Universal
Encoder Plus module has been selected for the Module
Type. For more information on this parameter, please refer
to the SM-Universal Encoder Plus User Guide (parameter
x.26).
SlotX Simulated Encoder Numerator
SlotX.EncoderSimulationNumerator
This parameter is only available when an SM-Universal
Encoder Plus option module has been populated in one of
the Unidrive SP slots.
The X in “SlotX” defines the slot number that the
SM-Universal Encoder Plus option module has been fitted
in. For example, if the Universal Encoder Plus module is in
slot 2, the parameter would be named:
Slot2.EncoderSimulationNumerator.
The SM-Universal Encoder Plus is capable of sending out
a simulated encoder signal. To configure the simulated
encoder signal, the user specifies a source parameter and
a ratio multiplier. The multiplier allows the user to scale the

port. The multiplier is made up of a numerator parameter
and a denominator parameter. The formula for the value
sent out the encoder output is as follows:
Output = Enc. Sim. Source * (Enc. Sim. Numerator / Enc.
Sim. Denominator)
The range for the Numerator is 0.0001 to 3.0000. This
parameter is found on the SlotX view after a SM-Universal
Encoder Plus module has been selected for the Module
Type. For more information on this parameter, please refer
to the SM-Universal Encoder Plus User Guide (parameter
x.25).
SlotX Simulated Encoder Source
SlotX.EncoderSimulationSource
This parameter is only available when an SM-Universal
Encoder Plus option module has been populated in one of
the Unidrive SP slots.
The X in “SlotX” defines the slot number that the
SM-Universal Encoder Plus option module has been fitted
in. For example, if the Universal Encoder Plus module is in
slot 2, the parameter would be named:
Slot2.EncoderSimulationSource.

and a denominator parameter. The formula for the value
sent out the encoder output is as follows:
Output = Enc. Sim. Source * (Enc. Sim. Numerator / Enc.
Sim. Denominator)
The range for the source parameter is 00.00 to 21.51. This
parameter is found on the SlotX view after a SM-Universal
Encoder Plus module has been selected for the Module
Type. For more information on this parameter, please refer
to the SM-Universal Encoder Plus User Guide (parameter
x.24).
SlotX Encoder Supply Voltage
SlotX.EncoderSupplyVoltage
This parameter is available when using a SM-Universal
Encoder Plus module. The Encoder Supply Voltage list box
provides direct access to parameter x.13 from the
SM-Universal Encoder Plus module configuration menu.
