4.5.3 Encoder types
Table 4-1 Encoder types
* This feedback device provides very low resolution feedback and should not be used
for applications requiring a high level of performance
** The U, V & W commutation signals are required with an incremental type encoder
when used with a servo motor. The UVW commutation signals are used to define the
motor position during the first 120° electrical rotation after the drive is powered-up or the
encoder is initialized.
