Baumer encoder attached to PCI 6024E

[Wear rig tester]

Hello all,

I have the Baumer encoder BHK 06 05A 1024-12-6 which I want to connect over the TBX-68 connector block to the NI PCI-6024E. The encoder should run in compementary mode. Do somebody know how to wire this up, please?

Hello all,

here is the connection table of the encoder. Hopefully somebody can help me now!? Its on page 3 the table "assignment cable for connection reference -5
05A (5 VDC complementary)".

Hello

As I understand you are after some information on wiring encoders, I have not been able to find a diagram specific to the PCI 6024E, but I have found some other resources which will help you.

The encoder has 3 channels, A, R and ZorN, the diagram on the following link is for a C series module, but it shows the pin configuration. The pins on your encoder are noted in the specification and are labeled A, B and N

These resources give some diagrams and a number of instruction steps to help you set up the system.

Thank you.

Unfortunetaly, the link "Quadrature Connection Diagram" does not work. I will test the other two. They look very good to me. I have 6 channels on the device: A, B, N and A compl., B compl. and N compl. . What are the compl. for, please?

Hello

I am sorry that the link doesn't work for you. Here is the link to try again

The compl. lines are complimentary lines and they produce a logical opposite of the signal, there is some further information available by searching online.

Thank you. Your papers are very helpful to understand how the encoder works. Unfortunetaly the PCI 6024E card hasn't got these possibilities. I do not want to buy a new card because of that. Is it possible to get a binary code instead? For example when I would use in MAX the acire Signals → Digital Input → Port Input. How would I have to wire that up? When I search for "Port Input" in the tutorials I get a lot of nonsence ... .

Hi There,

Take a look at this tutorial. Is contains a section that I think you will find usefull titled "How to Make an Encoder Measurement".  Have a read on this section as it details how to wire up your encoder.

The following is another forum post that decibes your issue and has a potential solution here.

Hope these help,

Regards

Hey, thanks. The solution in the other forum looks nice. At the monent it does not work but I come closer to it. What is the "status" in the drawing about and how can I find it?
