Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Grating Pitch (Interval)
A grating is a continuous series of lines and spaces printed on
the scale. The width of one line and one space is called
the pitch (sometimes referred to as the interval) of the grating.
The lines and spaces are accurately placed on the scale.
Signal Period
When scanning the grating, the encoder head produces
sinusoidal signals with a period equal to the grating pitch.
Interpolation
The sinusoidal signal period can be electronically divided into
equal parts. The interpolation circuitry generates a square wave
edge for each division.
Measuring Step (Resolution)
The smallest digital counting step produced by an encoder.
Reference Pulse (Reference Mark)
There is an additional track of marks printed next to the grating
to allow a user to find an absolute position along the length
of the scale. A one increment wide signal is generated when
the encoder head passes the reference mark on the scale.
This is called a “true” reference mark since it is repeatable in
both directions. Subsequent electronics use this pulse to assign
a preset value to the absolute reference mark position.
Error Signal
This signal appears when a malfunctioning encoder generates
faulty scanning signals.
Accuracy
This is a fundamental characteristic, which is specified with
an accuracy grade (e.g. ±5 µm/m).
Abbe Error
Measuring error due to lateral distance between the measuring
system and the machining level.
Yaw Angle, Pitch Angle, Roll Angle, Lateral Shift, Airgap
Mounting tolerances of the encoder head relative to the scale.

„„ Contamination resistance
„„ Immunity against aging and temperature changes
„„ High resolution
„„ High traversing speed
„„ Large mounting tolerances
„„ Small dimensions
The MS 2x series meets all these requirements!
The trend today in motion control applications is for
exposed Linear Encoder systems.
This is driven by steadily increasing demands for
higher traversing speed
higher operating cycles
lower mechanical backlash
zero frictional force induced by the encoder.
Only exposed, non-contact encoders fulfill
all these requirements.
For special requirements like closed loop, speed control,
highest accuracy and others it is important to minimize
the interpolation errors.
Historically, the small grating periods used had
the disadvantages of smaller mounting gaps and very tight
overall mounting tolerances.
The MS 2x series encoders´ 40 µm grating period minimizes
interpolation errors but can be mounted with a large gap
and liberal mounting tolerances.
A drawback of many exposed Linear Encoders is their
sensitivity to dirt and contamination on the scale.
The MS 2x series encoders´ unique optical design minimizes
the effect of dirt and contamination normally associated
with the exposed Linear Encoders.
The MS 2x series utilizes a unique scanning principle which
allows high traversing speeds (up to 10 m/s), large mounting
tolerances and contamination on the scale.
Reference marks, accurate and repeatable from both traversing
directions, are standard.
Version MS 21, MS 26: The position of the reference mark
can be selected by the customer.
A wide range of interpolation electronics, integrated into the
encoder head, enables resolutions from 10 µm to 100 nm.
Square-wave signals, single ended, or via Line Driver RS 422,
are provided at the output of the encoder head.
Units with sinusoidal output, 1Vpp, are also available.
Two end of travel optical switch signals are available directly out
of the reader head. The end of travel signal locations can be
easily set by the user.
Due to recent advancements in technology, all of these benefits
are now available in a small package design.

The model MS 2x incremental Linear Encoder works with the imaging,
photoelectric measuring principle and a singlefield reflective scanning method.
The regulated light of an infrared LED is collimated by a condenser lens and
passes through the grid of the reticle. After being reflected from the scale,
the infrared LED generates a periodic intensity distribution on the structured sensor.
The sensor generates high qualitiy sinusoidal signals which are highly insensitive
to possible contaminations.
The regulation of the LED ensures a constant light output, guaranteeing stability
in the case of temperature fluctuations as well as with long-run operation.

Voltage signals (1 Vpp)
Counting directionRecommended Line Receiver circuit
Sinusoidal voltage signals 1Vpp
(drawing shows “positive counting direction”)
Two sinusoidal voltage signals A1 and A2 and one reference mark signal
(all with inverted signals).
Powersupply:+5V±5 %,max.130mA(unloaded)
Track signals (differential voltage A1 to A1 resp. A2 to A2 ):
Signal amplitude 0.6 Vpp to 1.2 Vpp; typ. 1 Vpp
(with terminating impendance Zo = 120 Ω between A1 to A1 resp. A2 to A2)
Reference mark
(differential voltage RI to RI):
Useable component 0.2 up to 0.85 V; typical 0.5 V
(with terminating impedance Zo = 120 Ω between RI to RI)
Advantage:
- High traversing speed with long cable lengths possible
Square-wave signals
(drawing shows “positive counting direction”)
With a Schmitt-Trigger (for times 1) or interpolation electronics
(for times -5, -10, -20, -25, -50 or -100) the photoelement output signals
are converted into two square-wave signals that have a phase shift of 90°.
Output signals either can be "single ended" or Line Driver "differential" (RS 422).
One measuring step reflects the measuring distance between two edges
of the square-wave signals.
The controls/DRO´s must be able to detect each edge of the square-wave signals.
The minimum edge separation amin is listed in the technical data and refers to a
measurement at the output of the interpolator (inside the scanning head).
Propagation-time differences in the Line Driver, the cable and the Line Receiver
reduce the edge separation.
Propagation-time differences:
Line Driver: max. 10 ns
Cable: 0.2 ns per meter
Line receiver: max. 10 ns refered to the recommended Line Receiver circuit
To prevent counting errors, the controls/DRO´s must be able to process
the resulting edge separation.
Example:
amin = 100 ns, 10 m cable
100 ns - 10 ns - 10 x 0.2 ns - 10 ns = 78 ns
Power supply: +5 V ±5%, max. 165 mA (unloaded)
Advantage:
- Noise immune signals
- No further subdividing electronics necessary

ACCURACY
The accuracy of the Linear Encoder is classified with a ± tolerance in µm/m (e.g. ± 5 µm/m).
The accuracy and tolerance apply to any meter within the measuring length.
For measuring lengths less than 1000 mm, the accuracy specification applies to the whole
measuring length.
For best system accuracy, the encoder should be mounted near the machining level and
as parallel as possible to the motion direction.
Example of a typical calibration chart for a MS 2x scale tape:

Exposed Linear Encoders are adjusted at the factory to provide
optimal signals at the specified mounting conditions.
Even though the Linear Encoders of the MS 2x series allow
for large mechanical mounting tolerances,
it is recommended to inspect the mounting by checking
the quality of the output signals.
There are various methods of checking the quality of the output
signals. The signals can be connected to an oscilloscope
and checked for conformity with signal specifications.
This method requires effort, training and expensive test
equipment (oscilloscope). Often one or all of these items are
unavailable to the installing technician.
As an alternative to this method, RSF offers different signal test
boxes. With these test boxes all encoder signals can be quickly
and easily checked.
The PG1-I / PG1-U is an all-purpose signal test box where
all the relevant signals are displayed on LCD Bars.
The PG1-I / PG1-U allows the quantitative as well as
the qualitative evaluation of the encoder signals.
The PG2-I / PG-U test box checks all relevant signals;
amplitude, phase and offset, and displays the results in a
qualitative format on a polychromatic LED display.
