Configuring external encoders in SIMOTION 

Prerequisite 

Encoder using PROFIBUS/PROFINET 
You have used HW Config to configure an encoder on the PROFIBUS or PROFINET. Two 

different possibilities are available for the encoder connection:  
●  Encoder interconnection using a PROFIdrive message frame (encoder with message 

frame type 81) 

●  Encoder interface as a direct value in the I/O area 
Detailed information is contained in the "SIMOTION TO Axis, Electric/Hydraulic, External 

Encoder" Function Manual 
Encoder on the drive 
You configured a drive with two encoders, and then an electric axis with the PROFIBUS 

message frame to be used. 

Procedure 

1.  Open the wizard for configuring an external encoder by selecting the "External Encoders" 

> "Insert external encoder" folder in the Project Navigator. 

2.  Assign a name in the "Inserting an external encoder" screen form and, if required, enter 

the author and version. 

3.  Execute the wizard for the encoder configuration and enter the appropriate values in the 

screen forms. 

The external encoder is now configured and uses the second value which is transferred by 

means of the selected PROFIBUS message frame.
