7.6.1
In the ‘
I/O configuration tree
’, click to open the ‘
Controller Tags
’ directory. The controller tag table displays in the left pane (shown below).
The description column fields will be blank by default.
7.6.2
In the ‘
Style
’ column, change the field data default from hex to decimal.
7.6.3
Locate Data Byte [0] through [5] In the ‘
Name
’ column. In the ‘
Description
’ column, enter the following Data Byte field information.
The following factory default configuration data is set to all ‘zeros’ (This value is sufficient for most applications).

Data Byte [0]
Data format
0
4 bytes signed position, 4 bytes signed velocity (repeats for each magnet)
1
4 bytes signed position (repeats for each magnet)
2
4 bytes signed velocity (repeats for each magnet)
3
First 4 bytes status- Then repeating for each magnet, 4 bytes sigend popsition, 4 bytes signed voelocity

Data Byte [2]
Measuring direction
0
Forward (counts increase as you move away from the electronics)
1
Reverse (counts decrease as you move away from the electronics)
Data Byte [3]
Number of magnets
0
Used for missing magnet detection purposes only. If the ‘Value’ = 0, the sensor
will determine how many magnets are on the sensor at startup. It will use the
determined number of magnets to determine missing magnet status. The missing magnet status is reported in the status
attribute of the Position Sensor object
and through the LEDs in the connector flange.
Data Byte [4]
Velocity window size
0
The number of cycles that is used to calculate the velocity. The larger the number
of cycles the more resolute the velocity becomes, but the slower the sensor is
to respond to a change in velocity. Values of 1 – 1000 are valid.
Data Byte [5]
Number of averages
0
A simple moving average that can be used to filter the position
data in noisy environments. Values of 1 – 100 are valid.
