Abstract
In order to transmit data from an absolute position measurement system to an incremental interface, the transmission of an absolute position is carried out in a virtual reference journey of a position counter (cnt) via several phase-shifted electrical signals. During the virtual reference journey, at least one further information is transmitted in addition to the absolute position. For this purpose, a correspondingly designed absolute measurement system and a computing device are used, the computing device being designed to receive and evaluate data via an incremental interface.
Claims18
A method for data transmission from an absolute position measurement system (1) to an incremental interface (3), in which an absolute position in a virtual reference run of a position counter (cnt) is transmitted via several phase-shifted electrical signals (A, B, Z), wherein, during the virtual reference run, at least one piece of further information is transmitted in addition to the absolute position.
