Note:
The mechanical travel of potentiometric displacement sensors is greater than the specified
measurement travel. Therefore an electrical dead zone usually exists at each end. Within this
zone, you cannot measure any change in the electrical output signal despite a movement being
made.
Note:
The
[Teach in lower calibration]
and
[Teach in upper calibration]
buttons can be used to
measure the upper and lower calibration values. For the calibration, use a calibrated gage block
that matches the full measurement range of the sensor as closely as possible.
Make sure that both measurement points lie outside the specified dead zone. There must be a
certain distance between the measurement points and the mechanical limits of travel of the
sensor. We recommend positioning the measurement range with respect to the mechanical
centre (±50 % about the mechanical centre).
1
