transmission, the data words are supplemented by a checksum and transmitted modulated to the stator. The stator demodulates the data words and transmits them via an RS422 interface to the evaluation unit. In the evaluation unit, the signals can additionally be filtered with an adjustable lowpass filter. The evaluation unit also offers the connection options for the system peripherals. These include a CAN interface, two frequency outputs (Md1, Md2), three galvanically isolated analog outputs (Md1, Md2, Speed), three digital alarm outputs and five digital inputs. The measuring system can be comfortable...

offset by 90 ° to each other. So the speed can be determined as well as the direction of rotation. The two tracks can be tapped as RS422 signals at the system outputs. In addition, the speed is measured in the evaluation unit and made available as a digital value via CAN and as a voltage value via the third analog output. Note Please note that the torque meter is a high-precision measuring instrument. Mechanical effects, e.g. hammer impacts, lead to deformation of the measuring body, which changes its torsional behavior and thus worsens the measuring accuracy! Before mounting, make sure that...
