This manual describes the implementing and confi guration of an absolute rotary encoder with
CANopen interface. The device fullfills the requirements of a CANopen device regarding the
device specification DS406 of the CANopen user group.
1.1 Absolute rotary encoder
The basic principle of an absolute rotary encoder is the optical sampling of a transparent code
disc which is fixed with the driving shaft.
The absolute rotary encoder has a maximum resolution of 8192 steps per revolution (13 Bit). The
Multi-Turn version can detect up to 65536 revolutions (16Bit). Therefore the largest resulting
resolution is 29 Bit = 2
standard Multi-Turn version 29 Bit.
Open functions. The following modes can be programmed and ena bled or disabled:
- RTR Message (Polled mode)
- Cyclic Mode
- Sync Mode
The protocol supports the programming of the following addi tional functions:
- Code sequence (Complement)
- Resolution per revolution
- Total revolutions
- Preset value
- Two limit switches
- Baudrate
- Node number
The general use of absolute rotary encoders with CAN-Bus interface using the CAN Open
protocol is guaranteed.
1.2 CANopen technology
CAN stands for Controller Area Network and was developed by the company Bosch for
applications within the automobile are a. In the meantime CAN has become i ncreasi ngl y used for
industrial applications. CAN is a multi-masterable system, i.e. all users can access the bus at any
time as long as it is free. CAN doesn’t operate with addresses but with mess age identifiers. Access
to the bus is performed according to the CSMA /CA principle (carrier sense multipl e access with
collision avoidance), i.e. each user liste ns if the bus i s free, and i f so, is allowed to send messa ges.
If two users attempt to access the bus simultaneously, the one with the highest priority (lowest
identifier) receives the permi ssi on to send. Us ers with l ower pri ority interrupt their data tr ansfer and
will access the bus when it is free again. Messages can be received by every participant.
Controlled by an acceptance filter the participant accepts only messages that are intended for
it.

= 536.870.912 steps. The standard Single-Turn version has 13 Bit, the

Transmission Technology: Two-core cable
Baud rates: 10 kBaud up to 1 MBaud
Participants: maximum 127
Cable Length: 30 m for 1 MBaud
1000 m for 20 kBaud
The data communication is done via message telegram s. In general, telegrams can be spli t in a
COB-Identifier and up to 8 foll o wing byte s. Th e C OB-Identifier, which determines the priority of the
message, is made from the function code and the node number.
The node number is uniquely assi gned to each user. The function code vari es according to the
type of message transmitted:
PDOs (Process Data Objects) are needed for real time data exchange. Since this messages
possess a high priority, the function code and therefore the identi fier are low. SDOs (service data
objects) are necessary for the bus node configuration (e.g. transfer of device parameters).
Because these message telegrams are tranferred acyclicly (usually only while powering up the
network), the priority is low.
BEI IDEACOD rotary encoders with CANopen interface support all CANopen functions. The
following operating modes can be programmed:
- Response to a RTR message (Polled mode):
The position value is only given upon request
- Cyclic Mode:
The position value is written cyclicall y (interval adjustable) to the bus
- Sync mode:
After receiving a sync message by the host, the encoder answers with the current
process value. If a node is not requi red to ans wer after each sy nc message , a par ameter
sync counter can be programmed to skip a certain number of sync messages before
answering again
Further functions (direction of rotation, resolution,etc..) can be parameterized. BEI IDEACOD
rotary encoders correspond with the class 2 profile for encoder (
whereby the characteristics of rotary encoders with CANopen interface are defined. For
configuration and parameterization various sof tware tools are available from different prov iders.
With the help of the provided EDS file (electronic data shee t) si mpl e line-up and program mi ng ar e

Malfunction of the position value during transmission
Problem:
During the transmission of the position value occasional malfunctions occurs.
Possible solution:
Check, if the last bus node has switched on the terminal resistor.
Too much ERROR-Frames
Problem:
The bus load is too high in case of too much error frames.
Possible solution:
Check if all bus node has the same baudrate. I f one node has another baudrate error frames
are produced automatically.
Installation hints
Both the cable shielding and the metal housi ngs of encoders and subse que nt el ectroni cs hav e a
shielding function. The housing must have the same potential and be connected to the main
signal ground over the machine chassi s or by means of a separate potenti al compensating line.
Potential compensating lines should have a minimum cross section of 6 mm2.
Do not lay signal cable in the di rect vicinity of interference sources (air clearance > 100 m m (4
in.).
A minimum spacing of 200 mm (8 in.) to inductors is usually required, for example in switch-mode
power supplies.
Configure the signal lines for minimum l ength and avoid the use of intermediate terminals.
In metal cable ducts, sufficient decoupling of signal lines from interference signal transmitting
cable can usually be achieved with a grounded partition.

Process data objects are used for real time data exchange for process data :position. PDOs can
be transmitted synchronously or cyclically (asynchronously). The encoder supports the PDO1
and the PDO2. Both PDOs supply the current position of the encoder and are defined in the
objects 1800h,1801h, 1A00h, 1A01.
Synchronous
In order to transmit the process data synchronously, a value bet ween 1 and F0h (=240) must be
written into the object 1800h / 1801h Subindex 2. If the value i s 3, the PDO is transmitted on ev ery
third sync telegram (if the value 1 is entered, transmission takes place on every sync tel egram)
In synchronous operation, the PDO is requested by the m aster via the Sync telegram (COB-ID =
80h).
Cyclical (asynchronous)
If you wish the PDOs to b e transmitted cyclically, the value FEh must be written i nto the object
1800h / 1801h Subindex 2. In addition, the cycle time in milliseconds must be entered in the same
object subindex 5. The entered time is rounded off to 1 ms. If the v al ue is stored for 0 ms, th e PDOs
are not transmitted. The function is switched off.
Response to an RTR message
by means of the remote frame = recessive RTR bit, precisely the message with the transferred
identifier will be requested
Transmission of the current position
The process value is sent on the CAN network with the following message:
COB-ID Process value
11 bits Byte 0 Byte 1 Byte 2 Byte 3
27 to 20 215 to 28 223 to 216 231 to 224
The COB-ID contains the node number and the correspondi ng PDO(tx). By default, the sended
process value use the COB-ID 0180h+Node-ID and, in response to the SYNC message, use the
COB-ID 0280h+Node ID.
The PDO COB-ID are defined in the object 1800h/1801h subindex 1.

Inhibit Time (Sub-index 3)
For "Transmit PDOs", the "inhibit time" for PDO transm issions can be entered in this 16 bit field. If
data is changed, the PDO sender checks whether an "inhibit time" has expired since the last
transmission. A new PDO transmission can only take place if the "inhibit time" has expired. The
"inhibit time" is useful for asynchronous transmission (transmission mode 254, 255), to avoid
overloads on the CAN bus. The "inhibit time" is a multiple of 100µs of object 1800sub03/1801sub03.

Object 6003h: Preset Value
Presentation The preset value is the req uired position value to be reached at a certai n physical
location of the axis. The position value is fixed as being the process value required by the
presetting of the parameters.
To avoid execution time errors, the preset value must not exceed the total measuring range (total
resolution) -1 of the parameters.
Object 6004h: Position Value
Description This object is used to define the position of the encoder.
CMS Index Default value Value range Data length
SDO 6004h - 0 – (total resolution-1) Unsigned 32
Object 6200h: Cyclic Timer
Cyclic mode The absolute rotary encoder transmits the current process value cyclically – without
being polled by the host. The cycle time can be programmed i n milliseconds for valu es between
1 ms and 65535 ms. (For example: 64h = 100 ms).
CMS Index Default value Value Range Data l ength
SDO 6200h 0h 0h – FFFFh Unsigned 16
This parameter is identical “Event Timer” of the transmit PDO1 Index 1800h, Sub Index 05h.
See description of the object “Transmit PDO1” (1800h) for the use of the cyclic timer.
If the value is 0, the cyclic timer is disabled and the position is never sent.
Note: After setting the encoder parameters, they must be saved in the EEPROM with
“StoreParameters” (Object 1010h). If the encoder parameters are not saved, the configuration will
be lost at the next power up.

Only for standard encoder : DeviceName (1008h) = « POSI+ »
Only one CAM is available.
Cam1 has parameters for the minimum switch point, the maximum switch point.
The encoder calculates the cam state if the bi t0 of the Object “Cam Enable” channel 1 (Index
6301h Sub Index 01h) is set to 1.
Low limit of CAM1 : Object “Cam1_low_limit_channel_1” (Index 6310h Sub Index 01h)
High limit of CAM1 : Object “Cam1_high_limit_channel_1” (Index 6320h Sub Index 01h)
Polarity of CAM1 : bit0 Index 6302h Sub Index 01h
If the polarity bit is set t o 1 , the c am s ta te of an a cti ve cam shall signal by setti ng the r el ated c am
state bit to zero. In the other case the cam state of the related cam shall not be inverted.
State of CAM1 : Object “Cam_state_channel_1” Index 6300h Sub Index 01h
The status bit set to 1 shall defi ne “cam activ e“. The sta tus bi t set to 0 shal l defi ne “cam i nacti ve“.
If the polarity bit of a cam is set (refer to index 6302h Sub Index01h) the actual cam state will be
inverted.
