2 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
(3) Connection of manual pulse generator
Manual pulse generators of the voltage-output/open-collector type and
differential-output type can be connected. Both connection methods are different.
(Refer to this section (5).)
When the manual pulse generator is connected to the Q173DPX, it cannot be
connected to the internal I/F.
Motion controller Connectable manual pulse generator
Q170MCPU
Up to 3 modules
(Q173DPX: Up to 1 module)
(4) Connection of incremental synchronous encoder
Incremental synchronous encoders of the voltage-output/Open-collector type and
differential-output type can be connected. Both connection methods are different.
(Refer to this section (5).)
Motion controller Connectable synchronous encoder
Q170MCPU
Up to 8 modules
(Q173DPX: Up to 3 modules)
Q170MCPU
(Combination of Q173DPX
and internal I/F)

(Q173DPX: Up to 2 modules)
(Note): Refer to Section 2.5.1 for details of the internal I/F.
• Tracking enable signal
Tracking enable signal of Q173DPX is used to start the input from incremental
synchronous encoders.
The external input signal of the incremental synchronous encoder is indicated
below.
This signal is used as the input start signal or high-speed reading function from
incremental synchronous encoder.
