iXC4e Using an SSI absolute encoder
XC4e Using an SSI absolute encoder
iXC6e Using an SSI absolute encoder
XC6e Using an SSI absolute encoder
iXL2e Using an SSI absolute encoder
XL2e Using an SSI absolute encoder
iXL5e Using an SSI absolute encoder
XL5e Using an SSI absolute encoder
iXR3 Using an SSI absolute encoder

WARNING: The drive cannot detect if an SSI encoder becomes disconnected from the Absolute Encoder Clock or Data pin on the feedback connector. Use the Encoder Fault feature in the FaultSetup Parameter so that the drive can detect when the feedback connector is disconnected. The user is responsible for safely wiring the system.

Use the AuxiliarySsiEncoderResolution axis parameter to specify the number of bits of resolution for the absolute position information from the SSI encoder. You can get the number of bits of resolution from the encoder data sheet. The drive uses this information to configure the serial communication interface to the SSI encoder.
