 the  actuator  has  reached  its  retracted  end 
position or the external limit switch signal is 
on. 
 
LED green: 
LED  is  on  steady  if  the  actuator  is  in  its 
selected stroke range. The LED is off if the 
actuator  has  reached  its  extended  end 
position. 
 
LED red: 
LED  is  on  steady  if  the  motor  over 
temperature switch is open or not connected. 
The  LED  is  flashing  if  the  rotating  motor 
axis has an offset to one side or another. 
 
If all LED’s are flashing in the rotating order 
yellow, green, red the printed circuit board is 
not  mounted  properly.  As  a  result  the 
distance between the magnet on the rotating 
shaft  may  be  too  large  or  too  small  or  not 
pointing  to  the  center  of  the  sensor.  The 
mounting of the printed circuit board should 
be  checked.  Without  proper  mechanical 
adjustment  the  board  is  not  operational, 
therefore,  a  reliable  function  of  the  limit 
switches can not be guaranteed. 
 
Further  LED  display  patterns  are  described 
in the below manual setup procedure. 
 
 

Manual Setup Procedure 

 
The  EPS  02  limit  switch  function  can  be 
configured via the two onboard push buttons. 
This  is  only  necessary  during  startup  or 
maintenance of the actuator if  end of stroke 
limits have to be changed or if changes to the 
working  condition,  mounting  position  or 
operational changes have to be made.  
In  general  the  push  buttons  have  fixed 
functions. 
 
Push button S1 is used to advance from one 
function to the next. 
Push button S2 is used to select the value in 
each of the selected function. 
 
There  are  two  settings  which  can  be  made 
independent from each other: 
 

 
 
 

1)

 

Setting  of  the  end  of  stroke 
position 

in 

the 

retracted 

position and 

2)

 

Setting  of  the  end  of  stroke 
position  in  the  extended 
position 

 
Please  find  below  the  manual  set  up 
procedure  to  adjust  the  retracted  and 
extended end of stroke position. 
 
Note: The EPS 02 comes factory preset 
with  the  maximum  stroke  length  and  a 
safety  limit  on  both  sides.  As  well  the 
actuator  dependant  settings  for  clock 
wise  or  counter  clock  wise  operation, 
and  the  activation  of  the  external  limit 
switch function. 
 
To activate the manual setup mode both 
push  buttons  S1  &  S2  have  to  be 
simultaneously  pushed  down  for  more 
than  8  seconds.  To  acknowledge 
entering the manual setup mode all three 
LED’s  will  flash  at  the  same  time. 
Release  both  push  buttons  at  the  same 
time  and  the  yellow  LED  will  remain 
flashing and the green and red LED will 
turn off. You are now in mode 1. 
 

Mode 1 
Adjustment retracted position: 

 
Note for units with external limit switch: 
As  mentioned before, do not make any 
adjustments  in  mode  1  if  the  unit  is 
configured  for  an  external  limit  switch. 
Always  start  out  with  the  desired 
retracted  position  since  this  is  your 
reference  point  for  the  setting  of  the 
stroke length. 
 
If no adjustment to the retracted position 
is required, go to the section “Change to 
Mode 2”. 
 
If  adjustments  are  required  the actuator 
should be jogged to the desired retracted 
position.  To  store  the  value  of  that 
position  hold  down  the  push  button  S2 
for 0.5 to 1 seconds.
