Unique in the world: Wachendorff encoder configurable via NFC

By OEM Update Editorial May 5, 2022 3:00 pm IST

The new WDGN series of incremental encoders from Wachendorff Automation enables configuration of any pulse count from 1 I/U to 16,384 I/U via NFC.
Depending on the equipment, Basic or Advance, further parameters can be set via APP using NFC.
After downloading the Wachendorff WDGN app to the smartphone, the desired parameters and values can
be configured without contact or voltage, if necessary also through the outer packaging.

Encoder configurations created can be saved under different names, reloaded at any time and transferred to
another encoder. This means that saved configuration sets can be used for the encoder in different
applications. The configuration set of an encoder can be read out, saved, shared and reused for other
encoders at any time after entering the PIN. The PIN and PUK principle is used for security.

The advantages for the user include the following:
– In the development phase, when there is uncertainty about which number of pulses the encoder needs to
run optimally in an application, the WDGN encoder offers the necessary flexibility to test the optimum
