The AKT2G family is recommended for new applications requiring remote I/O in a PCMM or PDMM KAS application. This article and attachment compares the AKT2G Remote I/O family with the AKT Remote I/O family.
The AKD2G's various feedback options allow for incorporating up to 5 feedback devices into the drive. Occasionally the feedback is not used for servo AXIS control (a position used as a direct command or feedback to a servo axis) but used as an…
This PowerPoint presentation explains the differences between different types of servo motor feedback devices, including:
The differences between absolute and incremental devices.
The differences between analog and digital devices.
Typical…
Commutation is the means by which a servo drive controls the torque of a motor by determining the position of the motor and applying current to the appropriate motor phases. If the rotor position of the motor is not determined correctly or the motor…
I'm using a AKD-M01206 with a direct drive motor. In my KAS-IDE project, I was using X9 as an input to monitor another encoder in the system, but now I want to use it as an output so another system can monitor the motor the AKD is driving.
Following are the instructions for adding the Encoder 802-004, which is the 0.25" SHAFT, 500 LINE ENCODER for stepper motors. Attached is the original PDF.
NOTE: S3 & S4 motors require cover mod. for cable

Article https://kdn.kollmorgen.com/content/scaling-2nd-feedback-kas-ide covers encoders with the following formats:
This article covers the differences when setting up an Endat 2.2 Encoder using the same X9 connector on the AKD:

DBL / DBK with Encoder
Feedback has no defined commutation offset. The commutation offset is determined with the help of the servo amplifier and stored in the encoder memory.
AKM with Hiperface encoder
Encoder is installed…
