TEACH-IN PROCEDURE

The TEACH-IN function allows to set a start and end position by means of two external signals. The 

analog signal will automatically adapted to the teached range.

The set output range (the overall information 

to be output) is defined over the travel of 

the specific application and is comprised 

between the ends of the axis: the origin of 

the axis, i.e. the point where you activate 

either the START or the STOP input, and 

the end of the axis, i.e. the point where you 

activate the other input. For the positions 

beyond the travel limits the current / voltage 

signal level will be kept at the minimum / 

maximum value of the selected range.

With ascending ramp, before the initial 

position of the travel the encoder will 

provide the minimum current / voltage 

signal level of the output range (4 

mA for AI1; 0 V for AV2). After the last 

position of the travel the encoder will 

provide the maximum current / voltage 

signal level of the output range (20 mA 

for AI1; 10 V for AV2).

On the contrary, with descending 

ramp, before the initial position of the 

travel the encoder will provide the 

maximum current / voltage signal level 

of the output range (20 mA for AI1; 10 

V for AV2). After the last position of 

the travel the encoder will provide the 

minimum current / voltage signal level 

of the output range (4 mA for AI1; 0 V 

for AV2).

WARNING: It is mandatory to activate 

the START input first and then the STOP 

input.
