Installation and Operation

Mounting the Sensor Unit
A broad range of MR34X rotary and linear sensors will work in conjunction with the MR340-1
Controller. Each MR34X sensor requires its own dedicated MR340-1 Controller.
MR34X series Rotary Encoders offer resolution up to 1024ppr.
MR343 series Linear Encoder is a special read-head sensor that can be used to measure linear
movement. It is constructed of both non-metallic and non-ferrous materials. The sensor is safe
for use within or around MRI equipment, or within other extreme electromagnetic fields.

When installing the sensor, be careful not to bend the fiber excessively. It is recommended to
keep the minimum bend radius 25mm (1”) or larger. Ensure the fiber outlet at the encoder is
protected from excessive pulling or bending.

Make sure fiber optic connector tips are always covered when not in use. Always clean and
inspect the connector ends before mating to interface.
