The data sheet describes the technical data, the dimensions, the pin assignment, the
accessories and the order key.
The installation instructions describe the mechanical and electrical installation with all
safety-relevant conditions and the associated technical specifications.
User manual for connecting the display to an IO-Link master and for commissioning.
IODD file (IO-Link Device Description); with the help of this file, the connection and
configuration with an IO-Link master is possible by means of commercially available IO-
Link masters and their configurators.

Definitions
If not explicitly stated otherwise, decimal values are given as figures without an extension (e.
g. 1234), binary values are marked after the figure with a b (e. g. 1011b), hexadecimal values
with an h (e. g. 280h).
1.3
Intended use
Unless otherwise described, normal operation of the system with unchanged factory setting is
assumed for the further description of functions.
The present device is an absolute position indicator with integrated IO-Link interface and a
plug-in connection for MS500H magnetic sensor for direct linear distance measurement
(combined with MB500/1 magnetic tape) or a supported GS04 magnetic sensor for direct shaft
mounting. Indicators, control buttons and interface are only active with external power
supply. The sensor of measurement encoder works magnetically incrementally. Without an
external power supply, encoder changes are recorded with battery support. The status of the
replaceable battery is monitored. A volatile TargetValue can be displayed below the
ActualValue via the backlit two-line LC display A direction display (indicator) is displayed if
there is a deviation between the actual value and the target window (target value including
TargetWindow parameter). The arrow direction indicates in which direction the shaft must be
rotated to reach the target window. In addition, the position status of two two-color LEDs
(green and red) is displayed. Device malfunctions or inadmissible operating conditions are
displayed. Since both linear magnet sensors are used with the AP10S, a clockwise direction of
rotation must be equated with a positive travel path.
