Application

The Temposonics

®

position sensors are used for measurement and
conversion of the length (position) variable in the fields of automated
systems and mechanical engineering.

Principle of operation and system construction

The absolute, linear position sensors provided by MTS Sensors
rely on the company’s proprietary Temposonics

®

magnetostrictive
technology, which can determine position with a high level of precision
and robustness. Each Temposonics

®

position sensor consists of a
ferromagnetic waveguide, a position magnet, a strain pulse converter
and supporting electronics. The magnet, connected to the object in
motion in the application, generates a magnetic field at its location on
the waveguide. A short current pulse is applied to the waveguide.
This creates a momentary radial magnetic field and torsional strain
on the waveguide. The momentary interaction of the magnetic
fields releases a torsional strain pulse that propagates the length
of the waveguide. When the ultrasonic wave reaches the end of the
waveguide it is converted into an electrical signal. Since the speed
of the ultrasonic wave in the waveguide is precisely known, the time
required to receive the return signal can be converted into a linear
position measurement with both high accuracy and repeatability.

Fig. 2: Time-based magnetostrictive position sensing principle

Modular mechanical and electronic construction

• The sensor rod or profile protects the inner sensor element.

• The sensor electronics housing, a rugged aluminum construction,
contains the complete electronic interface with active signal
conditioning. Double shielding ensures high safety of operation and
optimum EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility).

• The external position magnet is a permanent magnet. Mounted on
the mobile machine part, it travels along the sensor rod or profile
and triggers the measurement through the sensor rod wall.

• The sensor can be connected directly to a control system.
Its electronics generates a strictly position-proportional signal
output between start and end position.

Installation of RP5

The position sensor can be installed in any position. Normally,
the sensor is firmly installed and the position magnet is fastened
to the mobile machine part. Thus it can travel along the sensor profile.
The sensor is fitted on a flat machine surface using the mounting
clamps (Fig. 4). A length-dependent number of these clamps are
delivered with the sensor and must be distributed over the profile
at regular distances. For fastening use M5×20 screws to DIN 6912
that should be tightened with a fastening torque of 5 Nm.

• Mounted on the face of the piston, the position magnet travels
over the rod without touching it and indicates the exact position
through the rod wall – independent of the hydraulic fluid.

• The pressure resistant sensor rod is installed into a bore in the
piston rod.

• The base unit is mounted by means of only two screws. It is the
only part that needs to be replaced if servicing is required, i.e. the
hydraulic circuit remains closed. For more information see chapter
"4.5 Replacement of sensor" on page 16.

4.4 Magnet installation

Sensors with stroke lengths ≥ 1 meter (3.3 ft.)

Support horizontally installed sensors with a stroke length from 1 meter
(3.3 ft.) mechanically at the rod end. Without the use of a support, rod
and position magnet may be damaged. A false measurement result is
also possible. Longer rods require evenly distributed mechanical support
over the entire length (e.g. part no. 561 481). Use an U-magnet (Fig. 16)
for measurement.

NOTICE

Mount ring magnets and U-magnets concentrically.
Mount block magnets centrically over the sensor rod or the sensor
profile. The maximum permissible air gap must not be exceeded
(Fig. 13 / Fig. 14).
Take care to mount the primary sensor axis in parallel to the magnet
path in order to avoid damage to the carriage, magnet and sensor
rod.

4.6 Electrical connections

Placement of installation and cabling have decisive influence on
the sensor‘s electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Hence correct
installation of this active electronic system and the EMC of the entire
system must be ensured by using suitable metal connectors, shielded
cables and grounding. Overvoltages or faulty connections can damage
its electronics despite protection against wrong polarity.

Instructions for connection

• Use low-resistant twisted pair and shielded cables. Connect
the shield to ground externally via the controller equipment.

• Keep control and signal cables separate from power cables and
sufficiently far away from motor cables, frequency inverters,
valve lines, relays, etc..

• Use only connectors with metal housing and connect the shielding
to the connector housing.

• Keep the connection surface at both shielding ends as large
as possible. Connect the cable clamps to function as a ground.

• Keep all non-shielded leads as short as possible.

• Keep the earth connection as short as possible with a large
cross section. Avoid ground loops.

• With potential differences between machine and electronics earth
connections, no compensating currents are allowed to flow across
the cable shielding.
Recommendation:
Install potential compensating leads with large cross section,
or use cables with separate double shielding, and connect only
one end of the shield.

• Use only stabilized power supplies in compliance with the
specified electrical ratings.

Grounding of profile and rod sensors

Connect the sensor electronics housing to machine ground. Ground
sensor types RP and RH via ground lug as shown in Fig. 22. In
addition you can ground the sensor type RH via thread.

Connector wiring

Connect the sensor directly to the control system, indicator or other
evaluating systems as follows:

Fig. 22: Grounding via ground lug (e.g. RP5)

Fig. 23: Location of connections (e.g. D58 connector wiring)

NOTICE

1. Do not mount the sensors in the area of strong magnetic or

electric noise fields.

2. Never connect / disconnect the sensor when voltage is applied.

the sensor.

6. Programming and conguration

6.1 IP address Conguration

An example of conguring an MTS EtherNet/IP™ sensor will be
shown using an Allen-Bradley CompactLogix L35E controller, and
the RSLogix 5000 software from Rockwell. This example is written
with the understanding that the customer already has an EtherNet/
IP™ capable controller, and a working EtherNet/IP™ network.
The procedure to incorporate an MTS EtherNet/IP™ sensor into a
network is shown in the following 3 steps. Step 1 describes setting
the IP address of the sensor and step 2 installing the MTS EtherNet/
IP™ EDS le (download at www.mtssensors.com). To utilize the
EDS le with the add-on prole feature, the RSLogix 5000 software
must be version 20 or later. By using the EDS add-on prole, the
sensor parameters and conguration data are loaded automatically
to complete steps 3.1 and 3.2. If not installing the sensor EDS le,
or if using an earlier version of the RSLogix 5000 software, chapters

7.3 through 7.5 describe how to manually load the sensor parameter
data. Also, if needed later, the descriptions in step 3.2 can help when
reviewing the sensor parameter data and for making any changes.

NOTICE

1. Choose an IP address that is not being used on your network or
subnetwork.

2. After the IP address is assigned to the sensor, record the IP
address and have it available as you will need it to communicate

with the sensor.

6.2 Setting the IP address of the sensor

Each sensor comes from the factory with DHCP mode active, and a
unique MAC ID (see sensor label). This allows you to communicate
with the sensor in order to congure the sensor for your network.
Before you can use a sensor on your network you must rst assign
it an static, unused IP address on your network. In the following
example we will use Rockwell’s BOOTP/DHCP Server program to
assign an IP address to the sensor.

6.2.1 Open the BOOTP/DHCP Server software.



The ‘BOOTP/DHCP Server’ window opens.

6.2.2 To add your sensor to the ‘Relation List’, click the New button
in the ‘Relation List’ pane.



The ‘New Entry’ window opens.

Fig. 26: Create new relation list entry

Fig. 27: Enter MAC ID and unique IP address

Fig. 28: Populated relation list

6.2.3 In the ‘New Entry’ window, enter the MAC ID (see sensor label).
Enter a unique IP address you will use for the sensor, record
the IP address and click OK.

6.2.4 Verify that your unique IP address and MAC ID appear in the
‘Relation List’ window. If the relation list window does not
contain both MAC ID and IP address, repeat steps 6.2.2 to 6.2.4.
Otherwise, continue to step 6.2.5.

Operation Manual

I 24 I

NOTICE

Step 6.2.7 will make your sensors unique IP address static. It will
disable BOOTP and DHCP, and the IP address will be stored in the
EEPROM of the sensor.

Fig. 29: Request History shows MAC ID and IP address

Fig. 30: Sensor shows the static IP address

6.2.5 Apply power to the sensor. The sensor should take around 10 to
15 seconds to begin to broadcast its MAC ID.

6.2.6 Verify that your IP address and MAC ID appear in the ‘Request
History’ box.

6.2.7 Click to select your sensor in the ‘Relation List’ box and click the
disable BOOTP/DHCP button.

6.2.8 The ‘Status’ message at the bottom of the window will read
“Command Successful” if the disable command was successful.
The sensor is now assigned a static IP address. If needed,
repeat step 6.2.7 until the disable command is successful.

6.2.9 Exit the BOOT/DHCP Server software. If installing the MTS
EtherNet/IP™ EDS le (download at www.mtssensors.com)
continue with chapter 7.1. To utilize the EDS le, the RSLogix
5000 software must be version 20 or later.
If not installing the sensor EDS le, or if using an earlier version
of the RSLogix 5000 software, the sensor parameter data must
be manually loaded. In that case, continue with Steps 2 and 3.

7.7 Controller tags input data

The following illustrates an example of 'Controller Tags' information based on the factory default conguration:

Fig. 48: Controller tags

'Controller Tags' information Examples based on the factory default conguration are as follows:

7.8.1 Run/Idle Header

Data[0] is always the Run/Idle header. This is not required by the EtherNet/IP™ standard, but it is highly recommended. It can be used by the end
user to determine if the system is in Run or Idle mode.

7.8.2 Magnet Data

The remaining data is laid out according to the data format selected in the conguration. The screenshot on page 32 in section 7.8 shows the
position data for magnet 1 in Data[1], and the velocity for magnet 1 in Data[2].

Magnet data – Position

The position data for magnet one in this example is 100887. This number multiplied by the resolution
(default = 0.001 mm) gives you your position.
Position = 100887 × 0.001 mm = 100.887 mm

Magnet data – Velocity

The velocity data for magnet one in this example is 60113. The velocity resolution is always 0.001 mm.
Velocity = 60113 × 0.001 mm = 60.113 mm
