OPTIONAL MULTI-TURNS COUNTER
First Possible Option: Counting of Turns Without Battery Backup Connector and Memorization of Last Position Before
Power Off!
In normal operation when the power is on, the counting of the turns is made in the two directions, clockwise and anticlockwise.
The maximum value of the counter is -32 768 anticlockwise turns to +32 767 clockwise turns. When the counter reaches the
maximum value of 32 767, the next counter value is set to -32 768. When it reaches the minimum value of -32 768, the next
value is set to 32 767.
The value of the turn counter is sent in the output frame in two complement. No counting during power off. When the power is
off, the last position before power cutting (value of the multi-turn counter and value of the angle) is memorized in a no volatile
memory and the encoder can accept (during power off) a movement of encoder up to ± 90° to calculate and release the new
position as soon as the power comes back.
The number of non-volatile memory in write-in cycles is unlimited.
At the power on, if the variation of the angle is superior to ± 90°, the error flag of the frame is set and the multi-turn counter is
reset at the next power on. This procedure could be used to reset the multi-turns counter.
The multi-turns counter is also reset when the sensor enter in the self-calibration mode.
Second Possible Option: Counting of Turns With Battery Backup Across Connector
After the power off, if the sensor turns, the number of revolutions are counted internally. The counting is made in the two
directions, clockwise and anticlockwise. The maximum value of the counter is -32 767 anticlockwise turns to +32 767 clockwise
turns. When the counter reaches the maximum value of 32 767, the next counter value is set to -32 768. When the counter
reaches the minimum of -32 768, the next value is set to 32 767.
During the power is off, no data is sent to the output. With the backup battery connector plugged to external battery, with low
consumption, the encoder counts the number of turns and stocks this data in memory. As soon as the power comes back, the
encoder releases the data of number of turns and continues to count in normal conditions.
The multi-turns counter is also reset when the sensor enter in the self-calibration mode.

APPROACH NO. 2: SELF-CALIBRATION
Comment: it is the case for the customer’s equipment whose mechanical tolerances are NOT under the tolerances described
in Approach No. 1, a self-calibration can be used to compensate the misalignment (= eccentricity between rotor axis and stator
axis) and the runout of the customer shaft for the rotor centering (eccentricity mounting of the rotor).
Other case where the self-calibration has to be used, it is when the sensor sets the auto-calibration flag (conditions to use the
self-calibration procedure: Table 14).
Self-Calibration Procedure
1. How to know if the encoder needs a self-calibration
a. Mount the encoder
b. Plug the connector
c. Turn-on the power supply
d. Turn the rotor (at least 360°)
e. Look at the LED color

Turn the rotor with a maximum rotation speed of 10 rpm (at least 360°) (acquisition of data = the orange LED is blinking)
When the green and orange LEDs are blinking, the correction calculation is in progress
When the green LED is blinking, the correction calculation is finished
Turn off the power supply and unplug the shunt
Plug the connector, turn-on the power supply, turn the rotor (at 360°) and look at the LED color.
Green LED: ON | Red LED: OFF | Orange LED: OFF
h. The encoder is ready to be used with full performances
Note
• The procedure of self-calibration is also described in video available to ask for Vishay

The self-calibration is operational when the requirements are in accordance with Table 14.
TABLE 14 - RECOMMENDED DIMENSIONS AND TOLERANCES OF CUSTOMER INTERFACES TO
USE THE SELF-CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
Diameter runout of the customer shaft for the rotor centering
(included gap between customer shaft and inner rotor diameter) (see Fig. 9)
Misalignment: concentricity of the stator centering diameter versus shaft centering diameter
(included tolerances of customer holder and stator interface) (see Fig. 9)
Position of the stator reference bottom surface versus rotor reference bottom surface (see Fig. 9)
(air-gap: the condition of previous line avoids to measure the air-gap)
Total beat included in the air-gap between Ref. C (rotor) and Ref. D (stator) (see Fig. 10)

OTHER INFORMATION
ATTENTION!
Observe Precautions for Handling Electrostatic
Sensitive Devices!
Do not use magnetic parts around the encoder!
WARNING: the rotor and the stator must have the same serial number!
• Do not damage the magnetic disk surface
• Do not put the disk in contact with metallic particles
• Do not use cleaning product or chemical product
