Dual level converter In1 Control 1 = LOW Control 2 = HIGH In2 Out1 Out2 RS422 or HTL 10-30V HTL 10-30V or RS422 RS422 or HTL 10-30V HTL 10-30V or RS422 A, /A, B, /B, Z, /Z A, /A, B, /B, Z, /Z A, /A, B, /B, Z, /Z A, /A, B, /B, Z, /Z Both inputs can be individually set to either symmetric (differential) format using A, /A, B, /B, Z, /Z channels, or to asymmetric (single-ended) format using A, B, Z channels only. Acceptable input levels are RS422, TTL and HTL 10 … 30 V. The output format can again be selected individually for each output. The outputs provide always all signals including the inverted channels, even when no inverted signals are applied to the input. With Control input 1 = LOW (or unconnected) and Control input 2 = HIGH the signal ways are as shown in the drawing above, featuring two independent level converters. 2.2.

Terminal strip 8-pos. 3.1. Power supply The unit requires a 12 … 30 VDC power supply via the 2-position power terminal on the front side (terminal 1 = +, terminal 2 = GND). The current consumption is about 50 mA (in case of unloaded aux. voltages and outputs). 3.2. Control inputs The control inputs are accessible via the 3-position terminal strip on the front. They are in LOW state when unconnected. To switch the inputs to HIGH state, a signal from +10 to +30 V must be applied to the corresponding terminal. 3.3. Incremental inputs The input lines can be configured for different requirements by DIL switch setting. The following input formats can be used:  Single-ended signals (asymmetric), channels A, B and Z only without inverted inputs (Level is HTL 10 … 30 V in general, exceptionally also TTL, see chapter 3.4). A, B and Z can also be single-signals, e. g. from light barriers (for example only channel A is connected).  Differential signals (symmetric), channels A, /A, B, /B, Z, /Z (levels either according to RS422 standard or TTL or HTL 10 … 30 V)

Page 9 / 13 A, B and Z may at any time also be independent single signals, e.g. from proximities, photocells etc. Since the level of every channel is selected individually (see DIL-switch), it is possible to use different levels on the inputs. Consequently it is e.g. possible to take the position information from the A, /A, B and /B channels of a RS422 encoder, but to add the corresponding Z index pulse as a HTL signal from a remote photocell With HTL signals, the switching threshold lies between 6.5 and 8 V. The input uses an internal pull-down resistor of 5kOhms. Every of the two input terminals provides two auxiliary voltage outputs for easy encoder supply: +5.2 V / 125 mA and +24 V* / 125 mA *) Output = power supply voltage minus 2 V 3.4. Asymmetric TTL Inputs Only when exceptionally asymmetric TTL input signals must be processed (i.e. TTL signals without inverted signal), a 2-position DIL switch located behind the front plate must be set. This hidden switch becomes accessible by slightly lifting up the front foil at the lower end (e.g. by means of a small screw driver) Switch position 1 is responsible for all channels of Input 1 Switch position 2 is responsible for all channels of Input 2 OFF = Asymmetric operation with HTL levels (10 – 30 V) ON = Asymmetric operation with TTL levels Ex-factory both switches are OFF, i.e. any single-ended operation requires HTL levels (this is the normal case) Asymmetric TTL levels are most sensitive to noise and interference, therefore not suitable for cable transmission in an industrial environment! For all general applications please do not touch the DIL switch hidden behind the front plate! 3.5. Incremental Outputs The outputs provide push-pull characteristics. When set to TTL/RS422 level, the corresponding output swing is always 5 V. When set to HTL, the output swing depends on the power supply input (12 … 30 V). All outputs are short-circuit-proof. At any time the signal and the appropriate inverted signal are both available at the output, even when no inverted signal is applied to the input.

Page 10 / 13 4. The Front LEDs The green LED is lit as soon as a power supply voltage is applied to the unit. The yellow LED indicates the state of the Control inputs and the basic function of the unit: Yellow LED off: Control1 and Control2 are either both LOW or both HIGH at the same time. In this case the unit operates as a splitter (both outputs are connected to the same input) Yellow LED on: Control1 and Control2 have different states. In this case the unit operates as a dual level converter or as a switcher (the outputs are connected to different inputs)

Page 11 / 13 5. Switch Settings The DIL switch sets level and standard of inputs and outputs: 0=OFF DIL switch settings 1=ON 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Output 1: TTL / RS422 The output levels are 5 V with TTL setting and correspond to the power supply voltage with HTL setting 1 Output 1: HTL 0 Output 2: TTL / RS422 1 Output 2: HTL 0 (Z) 0 (B) 0 (A) Input 1: differential (A, /A, B, /B, Z, /Z) Both, input and inverted input must be used. Levels from 2 up to 30 V are acceptable. 1 (Z) 1 (B) 1 (A) Input 1: single-ended (A,B,Z) with HTL level *) Inverted inputs remain open, level must be HTL 10… 30 V 0 (Z) 0 (B) 0 (A) Input 2: differential (A, /A, B, /B, Z, /Z) Both, input and inverted input must be used. Levels from 2 to 30 V are acceptable. 1 (Z) 1 (B) 1 (A) Input 2: single-ended (A,B,Z) with HTL level *) Inverted inputs remain open, level must be HTL 10 … 30 V *) This setting can also be used with asymmetric (single-ended) TTL levels. See 3.4 Please set unused input lines to “single-ended” HTL at any time! It is not mandatory to use the same level for all channels of an input. The indications (A), (B), (Z) show which switch position is responsible for which channel. When e.g. positions 3 and 4 are set to “0” and position 5 is set to “1”, Input1 would accept A, /A, B, /B at RS422 standard, and the Z index as a HTL single-ended signal. Consequently it is possible to e.g. generate an Index from a remote photocell, whereas the impulses come from the RS422 encoder simulation of a drive system.
