The input is equipped with a differential line receiver. It takes these differential signals (A, A', B, B', Z, Z') through the RXTX circuitry and outputs repeated differential signals.

Benefits include greater immunity from electrical noise, signal distortion, and interference, especially with long cable runs. The output signal can be 5 VDC or an amplitude equivalent to Vcc.

The unit requires power from an 8 to 24 VDC source. It generates a regulated 5 VDC output to power an encoder.

 

Applications
• To repeat differential signals for data transmission over long distances.
• To properly terminate differential signals to eliminate/reduce signal distortions.
• To increase output current drive capability in order to drive multiple receivers.

Installation
Remove 4 cover screws and cover to gain access for wiring.
