This device must be supplied by a Class 2
Power source or Limited Voltage / Current Circuit
Input Voltage: + 30V DC max
Input Current: 0.5A max

Teach-in procedure with SET button

 

• press SET button (at least 3 sec) -> the encoder enters into teach in procedure 

 

 

(led B (GREEN) / led A (RED) on)

 

• keep pressed SET button (at least 3 more sec, 6 sec total) -> teach in procedure confi rmed 

 

(led B (GREEN) / led A (RED) fl ashing 2 Hz frequency), 1 min timeout

 

• rotate the encoder shaft to initial position

 

• press SET button -> initial position set   

 

 

 

 

(led B (GREEN) on / led A (RED) fl ashing), 10 min timeout

 

• rotate the encoder shaft to end position

 

• press SET button -> end position set 

 

 

 

 

 

(led B (GREEN) / led A (RED) fl ashing 4 times (1,5 Hz frequency))

 

• led B (GREEN) on -> user parameters set

To reset to factory default (1 turn EAL - 15 turns EAML) press SET button at least 10 seconds
(led B (GREEN) / led A (RED) alternate fl ashing) -> led A (RED) on

Teach-in procedure with BEGIN/END inputs

 

• rotate the encoder shaft to start position

 

• set BEGIN input on high level (pulse) -> led B (GREEN) on / led A (RED) fl ashing (10 min timeout)

 

• rotate the encoder shaft to end position

 

• set END input on high level (pulse) -> end position set   

 

 

 

(led B (GREEN) and led A (RED) fl ashing 4 times (frequency 1,5 Hz))

 

• led B (GREEN) on -> user parameter set

To reset to factory default (1 turn EAL - 15 turns EAML) set BEGIN / END inputs on high level simultaneously
(led B (GREEN) / led A (RED) alternate fl ashing) -> led A (RED) on

SAFETY ADVICES

 

• The transducer must be used in observance of its specifi cations. The transducer is a precision measuring 

instrument and it is not a safety device.

 

• The  personnel  charges  in  mounting  and  commissioning  of  the  device  must  be  qualifi ed  and  carefully 

follow  installation  instructions.  It  is  strongly  recommended  to  avoid  any  mechanical  or  electrical 
modifi cation for safety reasons. The warranty will lose in case of any modifi cations.

 

• Don’t expose the device to stresses or impacts in order to ensure the correct functioning.

 

• Make sure that the mechanical coupling of the transducer shaft is designed with the appropriate elastic 

couplings, especially in the case of excessive axial or radial movements.

•  The mechanical coupling between motor and trasducer shaft has to be made with appropriate elastic 

couplings, especially in the case of excessive axial or radial movements.

 

• Check the operating environment is free from corrosive agents (acids, etc.) or substances that are not 

compatible with the device and with its IP rating.

 

• Check the connection of the device to the ground; if necessary, provide an additional external connection.

 

• Products with variant code (a number or combination of numbers after “.”) may have different mechanical, 

electrical or connections from standard product. Please refer to the additional documentation.

 

• Installation and wiring must be performed by trained personnel in a POWER-OFF condition.
•  To prevent short-circuits, insulate unused wires at different lengths; do not use unused pins on the 

connector.

 

• Before switching on, verify the voltage range applicable to the device.

 

• Place  power  and  signal  cables  in  order  to  avoid  capacitive  or  inductive  interferences  that  may  cause 

malfunction of the device. Place also transducer cable far from power lines or any other cable with high 
noise levels. 

 

• The user who integrates the transducer in his appliance must observe CE regulations and he is responsible 

for the CE marking of the end machine/device.

 

• The  malfunctions  due  to  failure  to  observe  these  usage  and  installation  precautions  will  loose  the 

warranty.

 

• Eltra  considers  itself  free  from  any  liability  for  damages  or  injuries  due  to  non-observance  of  these 

directives.
