Configuration options

Prerequisites
– USB communication box connected to the transducer
and PC.
– Software correctly installed.
– Transducer connected to the power supply.
– Magnet on transducer.
Magnets and outputs
– Number of magnets can be selected:
• 1 magnet (factory setting)
• 2 magnets
• Flexible Magnet Mode (FMM)
– Two outputs can be assigned independently
The number of magnets can be fixed or flexible:
– Fixed setting
If one magnet is set, a second magnet will be ignored.
If two magnets are set, there must be two magnets on
the transducer. If there is only one, the error value is
issued on all outputs. A third magnet will be ignored.
Flexible Magnet Mode (FMM)
–
In Flexible Magnet Mode, the number of magnets is
flexible, allowing them to be changed during operation.
If there are two magnets on the transducer, the
respective output function is issued via the outputs.
If there is only one magnet on the transducer, its output
function is always issued via output 1. Since there is no
second magnet, output 2 issues the error value.
Changing the number of magnets during operation can
cause the assignment of outputs and their values to be
swapped.
Output functions
– Position: position in the measuring range.
– Speed: speed of the magnet. The sign indicates the
direction of movement. Movement from the null point
to the end point is output with a positive sign.
Movement from the end point to the null point is output
with a negative sign. Max. detectable speed range of
−10 to +10 m/s.
– Speed (no sign): speed of the magnet. The direction
of movement cannot be read. Max. detectable speed
range of 0 to 10 m/s.
– Differential position: Distance between two magnets.
Selection is only possible if two magnets have been
selected.

Freely configurable characteristic curve
– Null and end points can be read (teach-in) or specified
with the mouse.
– The distance between the null point and end point
must be at least 4 mm.
– The characteristic curve can be inverted or copied from
the other output.
– The limits can be adjusted to the measuring range.
– The error value can be set in accordance with the
limits.
Boundary conditions for two magnets
– Two magnets can only be selected from a nominal
length ≥ 90 mm.
– The distance between two magnets must be ≥ 65 mm.
DANGER
Uncontrolled system movement
When starting up, if the displacement measurement
system is part of a closed-loop system whose
parameters have not yet been set, the system may
perform uncontrolled movements. This could result in
personal injury and equipment damage.
► The system must be taken out of operation before
configuration.
► Transducers may only be connected to the
communication box for configuration.
► The communication box must be removed after
configuration.
