ABSTRACT:
A method of establishing a state of an encoder, and an encoder having a state assessment device that includes the steps of generating at least one analogue signal whose amplitude is changed in response to movement between an encoding disc and a detector, generating at least one pulse signal on the basis of the analogue signal by a comparator device, and assessing the amplitude of the analogue signal. The method further includes generating a first status signal on the basis of the amplitude assessment, and generating a second status signal on the basis of one or more of the pulse signals.
