Analog sensors can be ordered for single channel or dual
channel outputs:
• The
single channel output
model provides the position value for a
single magnet that is output over a voltage or current range. Also,
the single channel output can provide a differential value between
2 magnet positions.
• The
dual channel output
model can provide a magnet position value
on one channel and the speed value (without direction) or velocity
value (with direction) on the second channel.
Additionally, the dual channel output can be used for applications re-
quiring:
• two magnet position values (requires 75 mm minimum distance
between magnets)
• one magnet position value along with its reverse-acting value
• one magnet position and the temperature inside of the sensor
electronics housing.
For all these cases, the single channel and dual channel outputs are
selectable for their range of values.
NOTICE
Note that for the dual channel outputs, channel 1 and 2 have the
same output range settings when ordered, but can be later changed
using the TempoLink
®
smart assistant.

Analog sensors are pre-configured at the
factory by the model number ordering code. For many applications,
normal sensor installation and operation does not require addition-
al adjustment. If sensor parameter changes are required in the field,
there are 3 different service tools that can be used to easily program
the sensor electronically. These are:
• the hand programmer for Analog output (part no. 253 124),
• the cabinet programmer for Analog output (part no. 253 408),
• and the TempoLink
®
smart assistant.
The hand programmer for Analog output and the cabinet programmer
for Analog output can be used to program the magnet positions for
the start of output (0 % = 0 VDC, −10 VDC, 4 mA, or 0 mA), and the
end of output (100 % = 10 VDC, or 20 mA), for the single magnet ver-
sion sensor.
Standard factory settings place setpoint 1 (start of stroke) and set-
point 2 (end of stroke) at the limits of the sensor’s active stroke range.
Both setpoint 1 and 2 can be re-positioned for the actual measuring
range needed anywhere within the active stroke length, but a mini-
mum distance of 25 mm is required between the setpoints.
Please note that the hand programmer for Analog output and the cab-
inet programmer for Analog output can only be used to program out-
put values for 0 % or 100 %. To adjust the values to other than 0 %
or 100 % of the output range, you must use the TempoLink
®
smart
assistant. The TempoLink
®
smart assistant can be used to retrieve the
sensor's status and operational data for diagnostics. Additionally, it
provides field programming for all of the sensor’s settings.
