only be disposed by authorized specialists!
CAUTION!
Please read the operating manual carefully, before using the device! Observe the installation instructions! Only start
up the device if you have understood the operating manual. The operating company is obliged to take appropriate
safety measure.
The initial operation may only be performed by qualified and trained staff.
Selection and installation of the devices as well as their embedding into the controlling system require qualified
knowledge of the applicable laws and normative requirements on the part of the machine manufacturer.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
… is close-fitting working clothing with light tear strength, tight sleeves and without distant parts. It serves preliminarily for protection against being gripped by flexible machine parts.
Do not wear rings, necklaces or other jewellery.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES
…for protecting the hands against abrasion, wear and other injury of the skin.
PROTECTIVE HELMET
…for protection against injuries of the head.
2.3 Statement of Warranties
The producer guarantees the functional capability of the process engineering and the selected parameters.
2.4 Demounting and Disposal
Unless acceptance and disposal of returned goods are agreed upon, demount the device considering the safety instructions of this manual
and dispose it with respect to the environment.
Before demounting, disconnect the power supply and secure against re-start. Then disconnect the supply lines physically and discharge
remaining energy. Remove operational supplies and other material.
Disposal:
Recycle the decomposed elements: Metal components in scrap metal, Electronic components in electronic scrap, Recycle plastic components, dispose the remaining components according to their material consistence.
Local authorities and waste management facilities provide information about environmentally sound disposal.

CAUTION!
Danger through non-conventional use!
Non-intended use and non-observance of this operating manual can lead to dangerous situations.
Therefore:
Only use the device as described
Strictly follow the instructions of this manual
Avoid in particular:
Remodelling, refitting or changing of the construction or single components with the intention to alter the
functionality or scope of the device.
CAUTION!
Transport the package (box, palette etc.) professionally. Do not throw, hit or fold it.
NOTE!
Claim any damage immediately after recognizing it. The claims for damage must be filed in the lawful reclaim periods.
2.7 Conventional Use
The ELGO-device is only conceived for the conventional use described in this manual.
The EMIX2 - ELGO- length measuring system only serves to measure lengths and distances.
Claims resulting from damages due to non-conventional use are not possible.
Only the operator is liable for damages caused by non-conventional use.

3 Product Features
The EMIX2 is an incremental magnetic length measuring system. The sensor technology and translator circuit are
placed in the same small housing. The magnetic tape can also be fixed into a guiding rail by using the provided
adhesive tape. The EMIX2 can be installed up to a maximum distance of 0.8 mm to the magnetic tape.
Overview of features:
Direct contactless measurement
The distance between sensor and measuring tape can vary between 0.1 and 0.8 mm
Measuring length theoretical unlimited
High resolution of 0.01 mm
Repeating accuracy +/- 0.01 mm
Very robust against pollution
3.1 Functional Principle
The basis of the magnetic incremental encoders consists of a scanning technology, which scans the north and
south poles on the coded magnetic tape and produces a single Sine/Cosine wave for each pole.
The complete sine/cosine signal process is interpolated electronically. Depending on refinement of the interpolation, together with the pole distance of the magnetic tape, the resolution of the measuring system is determined.
The magnetic tape ( 4.4) has a pole pitch of 2 mm. A special evaluation electronic (translator) processes the
sine/cosine wave into square output signals from the signal information of the magnetic tape. These square
signals are equivalent to conventional optical rotary- or linear encoder outputs.
