The "home" position is changed when the
sled collides with components or hits the
end of the carriageway. The "home" posi-
tion should be reset afterwards.
The sled moves away from the motor by
pressing the “step size” buttons once. The
sled is moved by the according value.
Movements towards the motor are initiated
by pressing the "back" key (6) and a step
size key (3) at the same time.
The display is updated each time the sled
has finished its movement. The voltage
output corresponds always to the actual
position of the sled.
A 100 mm distance corresponds to a volt-
age change (5) of 1V.
Alternatively the "100" key can be pro-
grammed with freely selectable values for
the distance
s
and the speed
v
.
Programming
example for s = 152 mm and v =
65mm/s:
Press the two function keys (6) simultaneously
for 3 s. The display shows: "CUSTOMIZE 100"
and then "
s
= 0 mm". Press the following
step
size
keys: 1x "100", 1x "50" and 2x "1". The dis-
play shows: "
s
= 152 mm". Confirm this value
with the "home" key. Display: "
s
= 152 mm"
"
v
= 0 mm/s".
Next press 1x "50", 1x "10" and 1x "5". Display:
"v = 65 mm/s". Confirm this value again with the
"home" key. The programming is completed.
The distance
s
can be set between 1 mm and
405 mm. The speed v can be set between
1 mm/s and 100 mm/s. Values s > 0 and v > 0
must be selected, otherwise "increase" is
shown in the display.
After a device restart, the "100" key is again as-
signed the default values
s
= 100 mm and
v
=
50 mm/s.
Adjustment of the clutch force
(14):
The clutch force of the sled (13) can be adjusted
to protect sensitive components. At maximum
force coupling and a "hard" collision, audible
magnetic cogging torques occur at the motor
(chatter). If possible, only set the required force
coupling: clockwise rotation of (14) for higher
force, counterclockwise rotation for lower force.
6. Disposal
The packaging should be
disposed of at local recy-
cling points. Should you
need to dispose of the
equipment itself, never
throw it away in normal do-
mestic waste. Local regula-
tions for the disposal of
electrical equipment will ap-
ply.
