The principle of the incremental measuring system is thescanning of a line pattern on a glass or plastic disc (see
Image 1). The states of the line pattern transparent or not
transparent are converted into electronic pulses by an
opto-electronic unit (e.g. transparent = 5V, not transparent
= 0V). The analysis of the signals is performed in an
evaluation unit by counting up or down with each pulse
The current count is stored in digital form and is instantly
available for evaluation
