SHG-A2 SERIES (SPHEROSYN ABSOLUTE) LINEAR ENCODER WITH RS232 INTERFACE Power Requirements Ingress Protection Level Operating Temperature Range Storage Temperature Range Scale Material Moving Force Standard Cable Cable Bend Radius (PUR) Cable Bend Radius with Armor 316 Grade Stainless Steel Minimum Delay Between Bytes = 1ms Minimum Delay Between Requests = 25ms ID | Command_| Carriage Return 1 byte X Bytes depending on command OD(hex) RECEIVE FROM ENCODER The encoder only responds to commands if the ID byte matches the programmed encoder ID. Address is set to 55 hex for all RS232 linear...

Position values are returned in resolution units. Position data is in ASCII decimal format. Encoder Address (ID) and carriage return values provided are in Hexadecimal. The checksum is calculated by summing the values in the data string AND address ID, and is the remainder after dividing by 256. The checksum value will be a hexadecimal number between 0 and 255. RS422 incremental position signals are active and can be used in conjunction with the RS232 output. See pinout below.

ZERO POINT MARKER The scale is marked with an arrow and a line at the position where the position data is zero. This point is 55mm in from the end of the scale. Encoder serial number Encoder Zero point INSTALLATION Install the scale and reader head hardware as described in the Spherosyn Absolute, Distance Coded, and Digital SP Encoder Hardware Installation Manual (Code LEHM – v1). It is important to ensure that the scale and reader head are rotationally aligned before operation. There is an arrow etched into the tube that needs to be aligned with the notch in the reader head. Once aligned...
