Encoder output delta vfd ve oak

Post by supermaxcnc »

Hey guys I'm looking to spec out an encoder for my retrofitted vmc I'm looking to use RLS magnetic ring encoder and I have a few options for help put I wanted to know which is correct i am using oak board with vfd ve drive

Incremental rs422 5v
Incremental push pull 5v to 30v
Incremental open collector 5v to 30v
analog voltage 1vpp 5v

As stated those are my four options. Currently I was running a low quality magnetic encoder and it failed so I would like to use a proper name brand one

Confidence is the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are where they should be.

RS422 = differential line driver

And that will work for Oak ? I just wanted to confirm I'm not super knowledgeable with electronics

5VDC Differential/Line driver encoders are required for all of Centroid's current controls. So yes, that type encoder works with Oak.
