To switch the Sensata DHX5 encoder between incremental mode and IO-Link mode, you need to follow specific steps and understand the pin functions and wiring configurations as outlined in the instruction manual.
**Switching Modes:**
- By default, the encoder is in incremental mode.
- After an IO-Link WAKEUP request, the encoder switches to IO-Link mode.
- In IO-Link mode, the Z incremental signal is disabled, and it is configured to be the IO-Link C/Q pin.
**Pin Functions and Wiring Configurations:**
- **Connector M12 5 pins (Device class B):**
- **Pin Number:**
- 1: V+ (L+: power supply)
- 2: A incremental signal
- 3: GND (L-: power supply)
- 4: Z incremental signal (IO-Link)
- 5: B incremental signal
- **Color Coding (PUR cable 8 wires):**
- White: GND (L-: power supply)
- Blue: V+ (L+: power supply)
- Grey: A incremental signal
- Brown: B incremental signal
- Red: Z incremental signal (IO-Link)
**Additional Information:**
- The manual provides detailed information on the pin functions, color coding, and wiring configurations for both incremental mode and IO-Link mode.
- It is essential to follow the specified wiring instructions to ensure proper functionality and communication between the encoder and the connected devices.
For further details and specific configurations, refer to the Sensata DHX5 IO-Link Industrial Automation Bottlenecks Instruction Manual provided.
