1. Getting started
The instructions will help you step by step with the safe and proper assembly of the kit and
installation and use of your s88 feedback module. Before you start to assemble the kit or put
the feedback module into operation, read this manual completely, especially the safety
instructions and the section on possible errors and their elimination. You will then know what
you have to pay attention to and thus avoid errors that sometimes can only be rectified with a
lot of effort.
Keep the instructions in a safe place so that you can restore functionality later in the event of
any malfunctions. If you pass the feedback module on to another person, also give the
instructions with it.
1.1. Contents of the package
1 one kit S88-3 (item no. 44-01305-01), containing the components listed in the parts list
(see section 3.4.) and one PCB or
1 ready-built and tested circuit board S88-3 (item no. 44-01306-01) or
1 s88 feedback module S88-3 in housing (item no. 44-01307-01)
1 patch cable (RJ 45)
1.2. Accessories
To assemble the kit you will need
a soldering iron with temperature control and a thin tip and a deposit stand or a controlled
soldering station
a scraper, rag or sponge
a heat-resistant pad
a small pair of side cutters and wire strippers
tweezers and flat-nose pliers if necessary
electronic solder (preferably 0.5 to 0.8 mm diameter)
Connection cables
The use of stranded wire is recommended for making the connections. Stranded wires consist
of several thin individual wires and are therefore more flexible than rigid wires with the same
copper cross-section. Recommended cross-sections:
Connections to the tracks: > 0.25 mm²
Connection to devices with 6-pole s88 interface
The feedback module has an additional connection for a 6-core cable for the connection of
upstream feedback modules or digital devices (OUT connection), which can be used as an
alternative to the RJ 45 connection. If conventional feedback modules with a 6-pole interface
are to be connected downstream (IN connection), an S88-A adapter (see section 2.3.) is
required.
