Before connecting the device, make sure that the mains voltage and current
type specified on the name plate correspond to the mains voltage and current
type at the site of installation and that the current circuit used is sufficiently
safe.
An earthed socket must be used for the mains plug (protection class I and II).
Do in no case use the device when the mains line has suffered damage.
Do in any case switch off the device before opening it; disconnect the mains
plug.
Built-in devices may only be used in the appropriate housing.
The device complies with the safety requirements of DIN EN 61010-part1
(VDE 0411-part1); protection class I.

Due to the fact that the device has not been equipped with a proper
mains switch, the connected supply cable may not be connected to
mains directly. According to a VDE recommendation these devices must
be equipped with a switching device (e.g. with a mains switch) that can
be disconnected from mains supply.
Appropriate use
The MVD2555 with the connected transducers may be used for measurement
and directly related control and regulation tasks, only. Any other use is not
appropriate. To ensure safe operation, the transducer may only be used
according to the specifications given in this manual. It is also essential to
comply with the legal and safety requirements for the application concerned
during use. The same applies to the use of accessories.
Conditions on site
Protect desktop devices from moisture or atmospheric influences such as
rain, snow, etc.
Protect the device from direct sunlight.

D Loosen the four screws at the back of the housing.
D Carefully extract the back panel of the housing backward, with the
motherboard attached, until the jumper arrangement is accessible. You can
place a screwdriver between the connection board and the housing and
lever out the back panel.
D By following the diagram, change whichever setting is relevant to you with
the aid of the jumpers.
2.2.1 Setting the analogue output signal
To make the analogue output signal setting (voltage or current), use jumpers
ST11. Choose between "20 mA or 4 ... 20 mA in the control dialogue.
2.2.2 Choosing the operating mode for synchronization
To synchronize several devices, set one device as the Master. All the other
devices should then set to Slave. To make the ”Master” and ”Slave”
selections, use jumpers ST13, ST14 and ST15.
2.2.3 Replacing the fuses
To replace the fuse, remove the back panel of the housing as described. The
fuse (230 V/T63mA L; 115 V/T125mA L) will then be accessible on the
motherboard (see Fig. 2.1).

3.2Connecting transducers
The following transducer types can be connected to the device:
D S.G. full and half bridge transducers
D Inductive full and half bridge transducers
D Potentiometric and piezoresistive transducers
D LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transformer)
The connection is made using a 15-pin D-Sub connector on the back panel
of the housing, labelled BU1 (cable end connector: DB-15P,
Order No. 3-3312-0182).

NOTE
To connect the transducers, use HBM standard cable. If you use another
shielded, low-capacitance measurement cables, connect the shielding
of the transducer cable to the connector housing, in accordance with
HBM Greenline information (see http://www.hbm.com/Greenline). This
guarantees EMC protection.

3.3Analogue output
The analogue output signal is available as voltage ("10 V) or as current
("20 mA or 4 ... 20 mA) at terminals 1 and 2.
To choose current or voltage, use the jumpers on the amplifier motherboard,
as described in Chapter 2.1.
The control inputs and outputs are available at the terminal strip socket
(9-pin) and are potential-separated by optical couplers.
* The control outputs and inputs must be supplied with an external voltage
(ground and 24 V).
NOTE
When the mains voltage is disconnected or fails and when the mains
fuse blows, all the control outputs are set to 0 V (V
ext.
).
3.5Synchronization
If several devices are used right next to one another or if their cables run parallel, the devices should be synchronized. To achieve this, one device is set to
Master and all the others (max. seven) to Slave. The setup with jumpers on
the amplifier motherboard is described in Chapter 2.1. As well as these settings, the devices must be linked together for synchronization.

3.6Setting the reading angle of the display
Depending on the mounting position, it may be possible to adjust the reading
angle. A potentiometer is used for this limited adjustment. The potentiometer
is located behind the keyboard under the display. To set a new viewing angle,
proceed as follows:
D Remove the plastic frame of the display from the housing.
D Carefully lever out the keyboard (e.g. with the aid of a screwdriver).
D Use a screwdriver to turn the potentiometer and set the optimum reading
angle.
D Put back the keyboard. Make sure that the plug is correctly threaded at the
bottom edge of the keyboard. Quickly test the keyboard by pressing a key.
If it functions correctly, you can continue.
D Insert and tighten the fastening screws.
D Push the plastic frame back on the housing.
3.7Connecting the serial interface
PK232-interface:
On the back of the device, there is anRS232 or RS485 serial
interface for connecting a computer or a terminal. The
PK485-interface is brought out at sockets Bu2 and Bu3.
When connecting a printer, a simple line printer needing no
RS485
When connecting a computer, it is possible to enter into dialogue with the
MVD2555. You can use control commands to make all the device settings and
query the measured values. An overview of the interface commands has been
compiled in another part of the Operating Manual ” Operating the MVD2555by computer ”.
more than 4 seconds to print a line is sufficient. The printout
has 12 columns. This corresponds to a line length of 132
characters. Select the measured values to be printed as
described in Chapter 4.4.11.

4Setting up and operation
4.1Commissioning and factory settings
Some of the steps you need to take to commission your measurement chain
(panel-frame amplifier and transducer) are listed below, so that you can carry
out an initial function test of all components. The description basically covers
adapting the MVD2555 to the transducer type to be used. We also warn about
certain errors which can typically occur during commissioning.
D Follow the steps given in the previous chapter to connect the mains cable
and the transducer to the measuring amplifier.
Please observe the safety instructions!
D Turn on the power switch.
D The device runs a function test and is then in measuring mode.Duration
of the function test: 1.5 s (if autocalibration is enabled, approx. 2.5 s).
During the function test, the warning output stays at 0 V. The factory
settings are active.
D Check the choice of output signal shown on the display. Use
the gross signal (no labelling in the display).
NOTE
If the error message CALERR. appears here, this can have the following
causes:
-No six-wire feedback connected
-Incorrect transducer/sensor connection
to select
-No transducer/sensor connected
Remedy:
Switch off the device. Connect the transducer properly. Switch the de-
vice back on.
