The RLS AksIM-2 absolute encoder is an extension module to the MD series controllers. It is used for precise position determination on geared motors (post-startup), direct output shaft control, or reporting position and velocity values. It's a trough hole, off-axis absolute encoder. The RLS AksIM-2 absolute output encoder offers a presice, compact solution that is easy to integrate into any mobile robotics application.

• Magnetic ring dimensions: 8-68 x 21.5- 95 x 2mm (inner x outer x thickness)  • Resolution: 17 bit (up to 20 after request)

• True absolute measurements

• Accuracy: ±0.004° to ±0.020° / ±14 to ±72 arcsec after encoder self-calibration • Operation modes: Startup, Motion, Report, Main
