Note: If you only want to connect one SSI encoder, the other SSI
channel has to be disabled in DM m+20, see section Configuring the
Unit via DM for further details.

! DANGER
Do not attempt to take the Unit apart and do not
touch any internal parts while the power is being
supplied. Doing either of these may result in
electrical shock, and serious or fatal injury.
! Caution
Leave the protective label on top of the Unit as long
as the Unit is not mounted and wired completely, in
order to prevent wire clippings or other materials
from getting inside the Unit. When the mounting and
wiring has been completed, the label must be
removed to allow air circulation and heat radiation.

Machine Number Switch
Name Function
MACHINE No.
Sets the Machine Number (00 – 94).
• Setting Machine Numbers 95-99 will
generate an error.
• Make sure each Machine Number is
used only once per CJ1-CPU.
• The next higher Machine Number should
not be used on any unit, as it would
cause a CIO-data overlap
• Be sure to turn off the power to the Unit
before setting the Machine Number.

Quick Start
1. Set all DM-settings to 0. The Unit is now configured as follows:
400kHz clock frequency, 24 bit Gray-coded and a 40µs
monoflop time, for both SSI channels.
2. Set Machine Number.
3. Mount and wire the Unit, the two SSI encoders and the
encoders power supply.
4. Turn power on.
5. Create I/O Table.
6. Both green CH1 and CH2 indicators should now turn on.
7. The encoder data can now be read from CIO n+10/11 and CIO
n+15/16.
