Abstract

A device for transmitting power supply signals and data signals between a position-measuring device and subsequent electronics includes a four-to-two wire converter having two power supply terminals and two data transmission terminals on the position-measuring device side. The terminals of the four-to-two wire converter are connectable to corresponding terminals of the position-measuring device. The four-to-two wire converter is configured to extract, from the mixed signal received from the subsequent electronics, the power supply signals and the data signals that are received by the four-to-two wire converter from the subsequent electronics. The four-to-two wire converter is configured to output the power supply signals and the data signals that are received by the four-to-two wire converter via the power supply terminals and the data transmission terminals to the position-measuring device, and to introduce, into the mixed signal, data signals that are transmitted from the position-measuring device to the subsequent electronics.
