3. Determination of the rail and tape length
Basically the following applies with an order of magnetic tape:
Ordered length of tape = effective measuring di 100 mm
For further details see the „Type designation“ at the end of the manual.

5. The AZ16E in operation
5.1 Initial operation
5.1.1 Detection of measuring direction
The Magnet Sensor „AZS“ and the magnetic tape are provided with a marker, in order to signal
the installation direction. The markings of sensor and tape must point to the same direction.
The counting direction (+/-) is reversible in parameter
P01
(see chapter 5.4).
5.1.2 Referencing
Setting the zero-point:
A new AZ16E unit shows always the absolute value of the magnetic
tape and should be calibrated to the zero point for one time. The reference value default setting in
register
P09
is
0
. To assign a zero point to an arbitrary position, move to the desired
zero-point and press the buttons
F + Set
together.
Reference value:
Alternatively an arbitrary value can be entered in
P09
, to set a demanded ref-
erence measurement by pressing
F + Set
together.
