5. Operation
5.1 Initial start-up
The position sensor R-Series
V
POWERLINK transfers position
and velocity values via the POWERLINK output. POWERLINK is
an Industrial Ethernet interface and is managed by the Ethernet
POWERLINK Standardization Group (EPSG). The sensor and the
corresponding XDD file (XML Device Description) are certified by
EPSG.

5.2 LED status
A diagnostic display on the lid of the sensor informs about the current
status of the sensor. The R-Series
V
POWERLINK is equipped with
three LEDs:
• LED for status indication (condition indicator)
• LED for activity of the Ethernet connection at port 1 (link activity)
• LED for activity of the Ethernet connection at port 2 (link activity)
NOTICE
Observe during commissioning
1. Before initial switch-on, check carefully if the sensor has been
connected correctly.
2. Position the magnet in the measuring range of the sensor during
fi rst commissioning and after replacement of the magnet.
3. Ensure that the sensor control system cannot react in an uncon-
trolled way when switching on.
4. Ensure that the sensor is ready and in operation mode after
switching on. The bus status LED is green.
5. Check the preset span start and end values of the measuring
range (see chapter 4.6) and correct them via the customer’s
control system, if necessary.
