Intended PurposeΒΆ

The encoder & PWM expansion module CD522 can be used as a remote expansion module at the following devices:

  • FBP Interface Module DC505-FBP
  • CS31 Bus Module DC551-CS31
  • AC500 CPUs (PM5xx)

It contains the following features:

  • 2 independent counting functions with up to 12 configurable modes (including incremental position encoder and frequency input up to 300 kHz)
  • 2 independent PWM (pulse-width modulator) or pulse outputs with push-pull driver
  • Dedicated inputs/outputs for specific counting functions (e.g. Touch, Set, Reset)
  • All unused inputs/outputs can be used with the specifications of standard inputs/outputs range

The configuration is performed by software.

For usage in extreme ambient conditions (e.g. wider temperature and humidity range), a special XC version of the device is available.
