Abstract
In order to enable safe position determination for a position encoder over the entire range of movement, a defined electrical interference signal is applied to at least one secondary winding of the position encoder, and this generates an electrical response signal, which is superimposed on the measurement signal, and the response signal is evaluated for error detection in a signal evaluator.
