The Smart Encoder has been discontinued.
This was the Q encoder option on the BE, SM, NeoMetric / J series servo motors, or the 3E encoder option on the MPP / MPJ series motors.
The recommended replacement is the J encoder option on the BE, SM, NeoMetric / J series. On the MPP/MPJ series, the replacement would be the 1E encoder option.
Both are 2000line (8000 post quadrature) resolution and thus no changes to tuning gains is necessary.
The feedback cable pinout doesn't change so the same F-1A1-xx cable would be used with the Aries drives.
Also, note the Smart Encoder is not compatible with the new IPA servo motor drive controller.
Note: The Aries AE/SE base servo amplifier will need the motor configuration loaded. This shows how to use the Aries Support Tool software to download to the drive.

The AriesPE or AriesCE servo drives will also need the motor configuration loaded, using the ACR-View software.
To find the replacement, use tables below. Hold control key and press F to find the motor part number and its replacement.
