Choose this device to connect to a Phidgets Dial HIN1101_0
A quadrature encoder is the most commonly used feedback device for a DC or stepper motor.
Interface a quadrature encoder at speeds of up to 100,000 quadrature cycles per second to a port on your VINT Hub.
Settings:
| Name | User-friendly name |
|---|---|
| Enable | Activate to enable the device |
| Run at startup | Activate to run the device at Kinetic startup |
| Serial Number: | Enter the serial number of the VINT HUB Phidget |
| Port: | Choose port number of the VINT HUB Phidget |
| IO type | select IO type from the list (refer to the device manual) |
| Interval ms: | Choose the refresh interval in milliseconds |
Task action:
| Enable device | enable the device |
|---|---|
| Disable device | disable the device |
| Reset position | reset to zero the encoder value |
| Set position | set the encoder value |
Task trigger:
Trigger a task according to the incoming parameter:
Condition:
| greater than | trigger the task when the incoming value is superior to the condition value |
|---|---|
| less than | trigger the task when the incoming value inferior,to the condition value |
| greater than or equal to | trigger the task when the incoming value is superior or equal to the condition value |
| less than or equal | trigger the task when the incoming value is inferior or equal to the condition value |
| eguals | trigger the task when the incoming value is equal to the condition value |
| range | trigger the task when the incoming value is superior to the condition value min and inferior to value max |
Value:
Set the condition value
Hysteresis:
For all theses conditions, you can set a hysterys value to avoid false triggering.
For example you use the > condition with a value of 0.5, you set an hysterys value of 0.1. When the incoming value reach 0.5, the task is triggered.
If the incoming value go back to 0.45 then go to 0.5, the task is not triggered.
If the incoming value go back to 0.35 (less than condition value – hystererys value) then go to 0.5, the task is triggered.
Digimap trigger:
Use the encoder value as an input for Digimap.
