PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Acquire incremental counts and SSI absolute position in ET 200SP

Siemens 6ES7138-6BA01-0BA0 is the single-channel TM PosInput 1 technology module for SIMATIC ET 200SP. It processes RS422 incremental or pulse signals, compatible TTL signals and SSI absolute-encoder data. Two digital inputs and two outputs support configurable capture, synchronization and comparison functions.

The firmware V2.0 module operates on an A0 BaseUnit and provides monitored 5 V and 24 V encoder supplies. Its operating mode determines the control and feedback interface. Selection should therefore match the encoder standard, signal frequency, required technology object and application wiring.

SYSTEM & REPLACEMENT CHECK

Information needed before ordering

Three direct checks to secure your system integration and minimize ordering risks.

Information

System integration Replacement check Manuals & support
ENCODER AND POSITION ACQUISITION

Match encoder signaling, operating mode and controller interface

Begin with the encoder's electrical signal type and required acquisition function. SSI uses separate data and clock pairs, while incremental and pulse encoders use the documented A, B and optional N signals. The same module supports several configurations, but they do not share an interchangeable terminal assignment. Use the manufacturer's diagram for the selected signal standard.
Select the operating mode before assigning controller addresses. Normal counting and measurement, Motion Control position input and Fast Mode have different control and feedback requirements. Firmware V2.0 adds function-specific integration options, so the engineering version and hardware support package must match the planned behavior. A supported physical encoder alone does not establish a complete working project configuration.
Budget the encoder supply and output loads separately. The module provides monitored 5 V and 24 V supplies, while its two sourcing outputs can switch comparison results or serve as freely controlled outputs. Apply the relevant temperature and mounting-position derating, preserve the required cable shielding, and confirm cable-length limits at the chosen encoder frequency.

Features:

  • Encoder-specific terminal mapping
  • Mode-dependent process image
  • Separate encoder and output load checks
The Siemens 6ES7138-6BA01-0BA0 requires the documented hardware configuration, installation conditions and interface arrangement to be verified before system integration and commissioning.
INTERCHANGEABILITY

Verify the complete replacement identity before commissioning

For a like-for-like maintenance replacement, record the complete order code, firmware version, BaseUnit type and operating mode from the existing station. Preserve the encoder specification and project settings rather than inferring them from wire colors or the module's product name. Siemens identifies this model as a V2.0 module, and its supported features depend on the selected configuration.
The documented 6BA00-to-6BA01 replacement relationship is useful when evaluating an older installation, but it should be applied with its stated scope. Siemens identifies V2.0 hardware as the compatible replacement and separately lists engineering dependencies for individual functions. Confirm the project's hardware entry and any required support package before planning changes to the PLC interface or program.
After authorized replacement and commissioning, review supply status, encoder diagnostics and the observed count or position response against the application. The manufacturer documents wire-break, short-circuit, A/B transition and SSI telegram diagnostics. Treat unexpected results as a wiring or configuration issue to investigate; this standard technology module is not a substitute for a safety-rated position-monitoring function.

Features:

  • Complete code and firmware captured
  • Documented predecessor relationship
  • Encoder diagnostics checked
The Siemens 6ES7138-6BA01-0BA0 requires replacement verification based on its complete order number, installed hardware, signal configuration and project documentation.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions buyers ask about 6ES7138-6BA01-0BA0

Direct answers about identity, compatibility, stock, warranty, payment and shipping.
  • Can this module read an SSI absolute encoder?

    Yes. It accepts RS422 SSI data and clock signals with configurable 10-40-bit telegrams. Binary and Gray coding are supported. The position value transmitted to the controller can be up to 32 bits; SSI operation does not use gate control.
  • Is a 24 V incremental encoder electrically interchangeable with TTL?

    Do not select wiring from the encoder supply alone. The supported incremental signal interfaces are RS422 and 5 V TTL, with TTL restricted to push-pull encoders. Verify the encoder output specification and use the corresponding manufacturer terminal diagram.
  • What changes in Fast Mode?

    Fast Mode acquires a counter or position value with reduced functionality. It uses a reduced four-byte feedback interface and no control interface, unlike normal operation with 16 input and 12 output bytes. Confirm that the reduced interface supports the application.
  • Does the module include its BaseUnit?

    No. Siemens specifies a separately ordered A0 BaseUnit. The exact BaseUnit choice also determines how the potential group receives its supply. Check the existing terminal arrangement and shield accessories as part of the spare-part request.
  • Can 6BA01 replace 6BA00?

    Siemens expressly describes 6ES7138-6BA01-0BA0 with firmware V2.0 as a compatible replacement for 6ES7138-6BA00-0BA0. New V2.0 features still depend on the applicable engineering configuration. This statement does not establish compatibility with unrelated ET 200S or ET 200SP modules.
  • Can both outputs continuously supply their full rated current in every orientation?

    No blanket full-current claim is appropriate. Siemens supplies ambient-temperature and orientation derating curves for the digital-output total current and for the 5 V encoder supply. Inductive-load conditions have additional switching-frequency and inductance qualifications.
