(g) If the clutch connected to an encoder is used in the external input mode, all

other clutches connected to the same encoder number must be set to the

external input mode.

However, it is permissible to use a combination of direct clutches and

smoothing clutches.

Example 1

Synchronous encoder connected to a drive shaft

If an external input mode clutch is used, set all clutches

connected to the synchronous encoder to the external input

mode. (Also set clutch ON/OFF devices to the same setting.)

Synchronous encoder

Set all to external inpu

mode (Also set clutch

ON/OFF devices to the

same setting.)

Example 2

Synchronous encoder connected to auxiliary input shafts

Set all the clutches connected to the same synchronous

encoder set to the external input mode. (Also set clutch

ON/OFF devices to the same setting.)

Set both to external

input mode. (Also set

clutch ON/OFF devices

to the same setting.)
