5.7.6 Yaskawa serial interface
The functions the ATS software provides (e.g., establish connection to the encoder, connect to
EIB interface electronics, position display, display Yaskawa status, clear alarms, etc.) are
basically those of the EnDat functionality. Please refer to the chapter "Software description" in
this manual for further information.
The ATS software features a mounting wizard required for encoder mounting. Its function is
described in the mounting instructions of the encoder.
The example shows the position display of a purely serial encoder without incremental signals.
Note
The Yaskawa interface is supported as of the ATS software 2.8.
Only HEIDENHAIN encoders can be mounted and inspected with the ATS software.
