1746 HSCE to 1746 N104V

[mrbj 0]

Hi, I am having some difficulty with the following, any input is gratefully received. System AB SLC 5/03. 1746 - HSCE Card for encoder 1024ppr encoder input. 1746 - N104V 2channel analogue input/output card. Drive roller dia = 100mm (~4inch) The encoder is mounted on the motor shaft. The motor - gearbox ratio is 1400rpm - 60rpm The machine drive roller pulls material through the machine at about 10m/min Q1 What happens when the encoder reaches its roll over value of 32767? Q2 I need to measure the speed of the machine via the encoder and send a 0-10V output to another drive card via the analogue output card. I assume I will have to convert ppr to rpm and then to a value that the analogue card can use for the 0-10volt output. Q3 I also need to measure the amount of material passing through the machine. I would appreciate any help / suggestions on how to achieve the above. Regards, mrbj
