1. Classification according to the engraving method of the code disc
(1) Incremental type: that is, a pulse signal is announced every time the viewpoint of the unit is turned (there is also a sine and cosine signal,
Then it is subdivided, and the pulse with a higher frequency is chopped), generally the output of phase A, phase B, and phase Z, phase A and phase B are the pulse output that is postponed by 1/4 period of each other, and the positive rotation can be differential according to the postponement relationship, and the rising and falling edges of phase A and phase B can be doubled by 2 or 4 times; The Z-phase is a single-turn pulse, i.e. one pulse is announced per turn.
(2) **Value type: It corresponds to a circle, and the viewpoint of each reference announces a binary value corresponding to the viewpoint, and the external lap device can be recorded and measured in multiple directions.
2. According to the output type of the signal, it is divided into: voltage output, open collector output, push-pull complementary output and long-line drive output.
3. Classified by the mechanical installation method of the encoder
(1) Shafted type: Shafted type can be divided into clamping flange type, synchronous flange type and servo mounting type.
(2) Bushing type: Bushing type can be divided into semi-empty type, full empty type and large-diameter type.
4. The encoder operating principle can be divided into: photoelectric type, magnetoelectric type and contact brush type.

Selection of proximity sensor sensors
1. Select the type of proximity switch according to the detected object. If the detection object is a metal *** inductive proximity switch, if the detected object is a non-metal such as wood, plastic, paper, water, etc. or a smaller and thinner metal, a capacitive proximity switch should be selected.

Troubleshooting for coding problems
P+F encoders are devices that compile signals (e.g. bit streams) or data and convert them into signals that can be communicated, transmitted, and stored. The P+F encoder converts angular or linear displacements, the former known as the code disc and the latter into an electrical signal. Therefore, the phenomenon: 1, ...

Typical construction of a smart sensor
A sensor is an input device that receives a signal or stimulus and responds to it. Some sensors now integrate many sensing elements and readout circuitry into a single silicon chip, which then provides high accuracy and multiple functions. The new sensor has more functions, including user friendliness.
