US Digital

Vancouver, WA - US digital is proud to announce the addition of a differential encoder input option for our low cost ED3 digital display.

The ED3 is now capable of interfacing with both single ended and differential output encoders. The ED3 with differential interface is a digital LCD readout designed to display an encoder's incremental count values.

The user only needs to plug in the encoder and power supply. The configuration parameters may be easily changed in the field by means of the four front panel buttons.

Features:

• Low cost
• Single-ended or differential
• Count speeds up to 1.2 MHz
• Programmable scaling factor
• Programmable decimal point
• Bidirectional count
• Sealed front panel
• X1 or X4 count mode
• 6 Large 0.5" high digits plus sign with backlight
• Retains configuration when power is removed
• Front panel count reset / preset button
• Accepts TTL quadrature and index signals
• Operates from 7.5 to 30 VDC and supplies 5V encoder power
• 3 LEDs show greater than, less than and match count conditions
• Actuates relay contacts for greater than, less than and match count conditions

Applications:

• Milling machine digital readout
• XY table position indication
• Shaft angle position indication
• Inclinometer angle indication (digital level)
• Probe encoder linear measure device with go / no-go indication
