Programming the analog output
The start point of the analog output is preset to the angular position 0
°
and the end point is pre
-
set to the angular position 360
°
in the factory. If the actuator is located in the 0
°
position, a cur
-
rent value of 4 mA or a voltage value of 0 V is available at the analog output depending on the
connected load. If the actuator is rotating clockwise, the output value increases proportionately
according to the angle until the analog output adopts the maximum value of 20 mA or 10 V after
reaching the angular position 360
°
. The start and end points of the analog output can be pro
-
grammed at any desired position. The permitted limited values of the angle range for the ana
-
log output are 45
°
and 360
°
.
Program the analog output as follows:
Programming the analog output
1.
Make sure that the sensor is mounted correctly and securely, and check that an actuator with
the specified dimensions is positioned at the correct distance from the surface of the sensor.
See chapter 5.2
2.
Press the "I/U" button for
2 s.
The flashing yellow LED indicates that the device is ready for you to teach in the start point
of the analog ramp.
3.
Move the actuator to the position that you wish to define as the start point of the analog ramp
and then press the "I/U" button.
The yellow "I/U" LED lights up for 2 seconds and then starts to flash again. This indicates
that the device is ready for you to teach in the end point of the analog ramp.
4.
Move the actuator to the position that you wish to define as the end point of the analog ramp.
When the actuator rotates, the first 30
° define the direction of rotation of the
measurement range in which the values of the analog output increase
(clockwise/counterclockwise). If the actuator rotates less than 30°, the previously set
direction of rotation is retained.
5.
Briefly press the "I/U" button.
The setting is then stored in the non-volatile memory of the sensor. The yellow "I/U" LED
then lights up permanently to indicate that programming was successful.
When the actuator moves in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, the analog output value
increases starting from the programmed start position, depending on the direction in which the
actuator moves during the programming process. The overall signal range 4
…
20 mA or 0 ...
10 V of the analog output is scaled to the programmed angle segment.
Note
A loss of the actuator during the programming process interrupts the programming process
and a fault message is issued. The last valid parameters are retained.
