Handle the measuring scale with care!
ATTENTION!
Damage to the magnetic positioning measurement system!
Strong magnetic fields and vibrations can damage the magnetic positioning measurement system.
Protect the magnetic positioning measurement system against strong magnetic fields!
Protect the magnetic positioning measurement system against strong vibrations!
The distance travelled is measured by a high-resolution positioning measurement system that is mounted on the
base. Depending on its type, the linear motor system features an optical or a magnetic positioning measurement
system. The installed positioning measurement system is fully cabled and is connected to the controller via a
separate connector (See Technical Information and Approval Drawing).
Please note the documentation included with this product for positioning measurement system not
described in these assembly instructions.
For assembly, disassembly, operation and cleaning, please consult the manufacturer’s separate operating
instructions.
3.3.4 Limit switches (optional)
Depending on the type, a few optical or inductive switches generate a signal to the controller upon reaching the end
of the travel distance. The limit switches are supplied pre-wired and operational (for pin assignment see Technical
Information, Approval Drawing or Figure 3.3).
Figure 3.3 pin assignment (standard)
3.3.5 Cable chain (optional)
The motor, limit switch, and positioning measurement system cables are routed through the cable chain to the drive.
Please observe manufacturer’s instructions for retrofitting.
