If you need to capture position or speed from incremental encoders and handwheels – with touch-probe inputs for precise latching and fast compare outputs – the Solidot XB6S-PL20 is a 2-channel encoder counter module of the XB6S slice series.
🏭 Typical applications
Position/speed: evaluate ABZ incremental encoders right in the field.
Handwheel/jogging: process manual inputs at operator stations.
Length/cut measurement: capture the exact counter value at the moment of an event via the touch-probe input.
Fast reaction: compare outputs switch when a position is reached – without waiting for the PLC cycle.
⚙️ Key specifications
2 encoder channels (A/B/Z), single-ended, up to 1 MHz; modes ABZ, pulse+direction, CW/CCW.
Per channel: 4 touch-probe inputs, 4 general DI, 4 compare outputs, 4 general DO (NPN).
NPN/PNP compatible; 24 V DC (field supply 18–36 V, input channels 15–30 V), 5 V via X-bus.
Status LED per channel, IP20, −20 to +60 °C.
🔌 Connection technology
Pluggable terminal block with spring terminals, X-bus backplane to the XB6S coupler.
🌐 Fieldbus connection
This module is not a standalone fieldbus device: it plugs onto an XB6S bus coupler, which handles the connection to PROFINET, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, Modbus and other protocols. You capture or generate the signals right in the field and transmit them over your existing fieldbus.
🔧 Mounting and dimensions
Configuration via the web browser on the coupler. 35 mm DIN rail, dimensions 106 × 72 × 25 mm, approx. 0.11 kg.
🏷️ Manufacturer and reliability
Solidot (Nanjing Solidot Electronic Technology) specialises in decentralised I/O and fieldbus technology. The XB6S slice series is designed for continuous industrial use in Europe, CE-marked and RoHS-compliant.
