Interface sends encoder signals a kilometre

A Micronor product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Aug 22, 2005

Micronor's MR310 ZapFree remote encoder interface module allows the all-optical, totally passive MR312/MR314 ZapFree fibre optic rotary encoders to remotely operate up to 1km away.

Micronor's MR310 ZapFree remote encoder interface (REI) module allows the all-optical, totally passive MR312/MR314 ZapFree fibre optic rotary encoders to remotely operate up to 1km away - in the harshest or most hazardous environments.

A single 62.5/125 optical fibre links the encoder to the remote module via popular ST-PC connections.

Conventional outputs include A/B quadrature outputs, two programmable outputs (milliamps and volts), and RS422/RS485/RS232 serial interface.

Special features include a quasi-multiturn absolute encoder function with 24bit counting range, programmable divider, two fully programmable analogue outputs (+/-10V and 4-20mA) plus powerful diagnostics and built-in test (BIT) features.

The MR310 mounts on standard DIN rails and operates from readily available 24V DC (+15 to +32V DC).
