Features:
- Shaft rotation is converted into a multi-turn absolute position value.
- PROFINET IO carries cyclic position data to the configured motion-control station.
- The synchronous flange, solid shaft and radial connector define the installation interfaces.
Siemens
6FX2001-5FN25 is a PROFINET multi-turn absolute encoder that reports shaft position to a configured motion-control station.
The measuring system of
6FX2001-5FN25 combines the single-turn position with the stored revolution count before placing the absolute value in cyclic PROFINET IO data.
Mechanical installation of
6FX2001-5FN25 uses its FS15 synchronous flange and 6 mm solid shaft, while the radial M12 connection carries the network interface.
The Siemens 6FX2001-5FN25 PROFINET Multi-Turn Absolute Encoder may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
Building the absolute position value
- Single-Turn Resolution: Thirteen bits resolve the angular position within one revolution.
- Multi-Turn Count: Fourteen bits retain the number of completed revolutions.
- Combined Value: The two fields form a 27-bit absolute position word.
- Cyclic Transfer: PROFINET IO carries the absolute word to the configured controller.
Aligning the encoder with the axis
- Mounting Flange: The FS15 synchronous flange locates the encoder on the machine face.
- Shaft Interface: A 6 mm solid shaft couples the measuring system to the monitored axis.
- Coupling Alignment: Installation must avoid unsupported axial and radial loads on the encoder shaft.
Preparing the PROFINET connection
- Field Role: The encoder communicates as a PROFINET IO field device.
- Device Assignment: The controller project assigns the PROFINET device name.
- Network Mapping: Address settings and cyclic process data are defined in the controller project.
- Power Input: A separate 10 to 30 V DC supply powers sensing and communication electronics.
Mapping the absolute value to a motion axis
- Encoder Channel: The absolute position can be assigned to a motion-control encoder channel.
- N2 Scaling: The N2 parameter adapts the raw measuring range to the rotary axis representation.
- N4 Scaling: The N4 parameter supplies the companion scaling value for the configured axis.
- Encoder Mode: Mode 2 SSI defines how the absolute data length is interpreted by the technology object.
