ABSTRACT:
A system for measuring the angle of rotation in order to determine the absolute angular position of the shaft of an electromotor is described which consists of a device for measuring the angle of rotation (10) and a control unit (11) connected to one another via an electric interface. The electric interface comprises an analog process data channel (8) and a digital parameter channel (9). The control unit (11) controls a change-over switch (7) of the process data channel (8) via the digital parameter channel (9). As a result thereof, a sine-cosine signal pair with one period for revolution is supplied via the process data channel (8) to the control unit (11) in order to determine the absolute angular position for the starting of the motor. Then, a sine-cosine signal pair with a high number of periods per revolution is supplied via the process data channel (8) in order to incrementally count the angle of rotation. An accurate correction of the incrementally counted angle takes place by means of a synchronizing signal generated by an index mark (15) and supplied via the parameter channel (9) to the control unit (11).
