Ixarc high-precision magnetic absolute rotary encoders are available with CANopen interfaces

Ixarc high-precision magnetic absolute rotary encoders are available with CANopen interfaces. This interface option is in addition to the existing SSI, EtherNet/IP, EtherCat, Powerlink, Profbus DP and Profinet interfaces. The communication interface features the autobaud function, so these encoders can be connected directly to a CANopen network without the need to set transmission speeds manually. Diagnostic LEDs show device status. A variety of connection options are available, including cables of various lengths and radially or axially oriented M12 or M23 connectors. Housings with bus-in/bus-out connectors are available for applications in which it is convenient to connect several devices in series (daisy chain).
