Chapter 2 – Introduction
Furthermore several antenna parameters, e. g. current consumption and supply volt
-
age, are measured and, if desired, added to the serial output protocol.
The serial signal is made available via potentially separated RS 422 or RS 232 inter
-
faces. In addition, the positioning pulse is dc-insulated. Furthermore, CAN Bus or
Profibus interfaces are provided optionally. The following variants are available, they
can be distinguished by the second to last character of the product number, e.g.
HG G-98780
Z
A.
As an option, the serial signal can be converted into a 16 bit parallel output signal
(24 Volts switched) for the code within an external interface device. This interface
device is suited for mounting rail (top-hat rail) installation and should be installed in
a place protected from any environmental influences (see section 5.3 on page 26).
2.3 Positioning Pulse
For the generation of the positioning pulse, it is necessary that the following precon
-
ditions are met:
The reception voltage S (refer to Table 20 on page 30) must exceed the set
threshold for
Level for Positioning
(refer to section 6.2.2.2 on page 31).
A transponder code must be decoded without error.
The measured voltage X must fall below a certain threshold (refer to Table 20
on page 30).
If the above listed preconditions are met, a positioning pulse with changeable dura
-
tion is generated. For the generation of a new positioning pulse it is essential that the
reception voltage S has fallen below the threshold set for
Threshold for Deco
-
ding
(refer to section 6.2.2.2 on page 31) first.
Thus only one pulse per transponder crossing is possible. Therefore, if a vehicle/
crane stops above the transponder after the positioning pulse was generated and
then changes its direction of travel, no renewed positioning pulse is generated
during the center crossing!
