CE 58 – The Versatile Standard Encoder - TR Electronic

Standard Encoder with
Versatile Options
high speed signal processing
large variety of interfaces
compact size (58 mm)
mechanically versatile (hollow shaft, solid shaft, integrated coupling ...)
Signal processing
Even if programmable, the speed of signal processing in CE 58 is comparable to that of non programmable,
hardware encoders. This is achieved by the transformation from disc-signal to desired output
code without use of the internal processor. The programmable incremental track, for example, has
nearly the same speed as a hardware incremental encoder. Only special signals such as over speed
control, limit switches... are computed by the processor. As it has no heavy load from the „ordinary“
output signals, it also does this job with very short cycle times.
Programmability
Powerful sensors take away much of the load from the used control by intelligent signal-preprocessing.
This begins with a freely programmable resolution and leads to over speed alarms, software limit
switches, cam controller, etc..
The CE 58 can be user programmed, as with most of our absolute encoders. Our new programming
tool TRWINProg is 100 % compatible with current WINDOWS versions and helps you with the setup
of the encoder. By using an online link, it obtains current updates automatically.
Field bus devices are programmed via the field bus. CE 58 supports many different field bus
profiles.
A very special device is the programmable incremental interface. This transforms a CE 58 single turn
into an incremental encoder. You can programm the resolution and position of the zero pulse by
yourself with our programming tool.
Interfaces
As you are used to with TR-Electronic, the CE 58 is available with a large variety of interfaces that
can be combined for very special applications. Our sales team will help you find a solution for your
specialized task in position measurement.
