Is it still the case that the only type of encoder allowed is 1Vpp sin/cos with SMC20 and not HTL with SMC30?

Hello,

yes, the required function would be an SS2 response with SOS at the end. These functions are only available in the safety extended functions. These functions can either be used with a TM54F or via PROFIsafe, and a safetylicense/axis is required.

However the safety extended functions are not available yet for chassis drives, we hope it will come soon this year. Another requirement is a safe evaluation of the encoder signals, which can momentarily only be done in a 1-encoder system with 1Vpp sin/cos encoders (with HTL encoder it won't work!)
