H25 Series OMNI Programmable
Position Sensors & Encoders
The Omnicoder® features a patented dynamic encoder resolution capability that allows users to easily program the encoder resolution to any value between 1 and 10,000 counts per turn. Packaged in BEI’s flagship Model H25 incremental encoder, the Omnicoder® allows for virtually unlimited resolution variations.

Using the simple programming interface software and USB interface cable, users can program the encoder resolution on site as needed. In the software, type the encoder resolution and click ‘Program’. A new resolution is now programmed.
With the Omnicoder®, resolution can be programmed and reprogrammed at any time by the user. For users with multiple resolution requirements, Omnicoders® can be and programmed as needed.
