DANGER
Uncontrolled system movement
When starting up, if the position measuring 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.
►
The BTL may only be connected to the master box
for configuration.
►
The master box must be removed after
configuration.
Prerequisites
Configuration with BET is not possible for
BTL PF_400-…S35.
– BTL connected to IO-Link master and PC.
– Software correctly installed.
– BTL connected to the power supply.
– Magnet on BTL.
Further information can be found in the
configuration guide online at www.balluff.com
on the product page.
Magnet and outputs
Possible factory default of number of magnets:
– One magnet
– Flexible Magnet Mode (FMM)
Two outputs can be assigned independent of each other.
The number of magnets set can be fixed or flexible.
–
Fixed setting, one magnet: With the setting of one
magnet, a second magnet is ignored.
– Flexible Magnet Mode (FMM): With Flexible Magnet
Mode the number of magnets is flexible so that it can
also be changed during operation. If there are two
magnets on the BTL, the respective output function is
output via the outputs. If there is only one magnet on
the BTL, its output function is always output via
output 1. As there is no second magnet, output 2
always issues the error value.
Functions of the outputs
–
Position:
in measuring range.
–
Position difference:
Distance between two magnets.
The selection is only possible if Flexible Magnet Mode
(FMM) is selected for the number of magnets.
– Speed: Speed of the magnet. The sign displays the
movement direction. Movement from zero point to end
point is displayed with a positive sign. Movement from
end point to zero point is displayed with a negative
sign. The maximum measurable speed range is
−10…+10 m/s.
Status of the outputs
– Status of the analog outputs is readable.
Freely configurable curve
– Zero and end points can be taught-in (Teach-In).
– The distance between zero point and end point must
be at least 10 mm.
– The characteristic curve can be inverted.
– The limits can be adjusted to the measuring range.
– The error value can be set according to the limits.
Condition with two magnets
– The distance between two magnets must be at least
≥ 65 mm.
