Function
The position transmitter detects the magnetic field of the piston magnet and con-
tinuously senses the piston movement in the sensing range. The position trans-
mitter can be operated in one of the following operating modes:
–
Proximity sensor with 2 programmable switching points (standard operation)
è
4.2.1 Proximity Sensor Operating Mode.
–
Position transmitter with IO-Link communication
è
4.2.2 Position Transmitter Operating Mode (IO-Link).
In the case of active IO-Link communication (IO-Link master required), the SDAS-
MHS switches automatically into the position transmitter operating mode.
4.2.1
Proximity Sensor Operating Mode
In the proximity sensor operating mode, 2 switching points can be programmed
within the sensing range.
–
Operation using capacitive operating key
–
Switching logic: normally open (NO)
–
Output signal 24 V DC (PNP or NPN)
–
Marking on the housing indicates the centre of the sensing range.
