Hi all.
I just "won" the task of evaluating an encoder input.
There is the possibility to evaluate with either single, double, and quadruple precision. The quadruple evaluation simply takes all the phase transitions of both A and B channel into account.
What would be the reasons for chosing any of these modes ?
Why would one not go for the highest resolution, quadruple evaluation ?
Will be using an S7 IM151-8 CPU with an 1COUNT module for the task.
NB. Did search. Didnt get any results for "encoder quadruple" or "encoder evaluation". Got way too many results when I tried a simpler search term.
NB NB. "A/B" means the two channels of the encoder. It does not mean "Allen Bradley".
