Hi everyone,

I am currently trying to simulate an encoder which send 10 pulses per mm done by an axis.

I struggle a bit to know how to configure the card to make it work. There isn’t a lot of details in the help.

I’ve currently come up to this configuration.

But i don’t know how to configure all the movement parameter.

Has anyone ever simulate an encoder with this car and can help me?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I never used this functionality. I only can hint to the Documentation in Automation Studio Help.  
[AS-Help DS1119 Movementgenerator](https://help.br-automation.com/#/de/6/hardware/x20ds1119/x20ds1119_sw/bewegungsfunktionen.html)

I hope this Information is usefull for you.

Greetings  
Michael

There is an internal test project (X20DS1119\_GEC) and exercise document (Exercises X20DS1119 Workshop\_Solutions) from the 2017 GEC concerning this card.

Perhaps you could ask your local B&R support to provide this project and exercise document.
