Programming Encoders with Operating Buttons

Scaling the measuring range

Use operating buttons "Lim1" and "Lim2" to scale the measuring range (minimum measuring range: 22.5°).

1. Press the two operating buttons ("Lim1" and "Lim2") simultaneously. Both LEDs will light up. Press and hold the operating buttons for 15
seconds until the two LEDs start to flash. The rotary encoder is now in programming mode.

2. Turn the rotary encoder shaft to position 1 (lower measuring range limit).

3. Press and hold operating button "Lim1" for 1 second. The green LED will now light up permanently.

4. Turn the rotary encoder shaft to position 2 (upper measuring range limit).

5. Press and hold operating button "Lim2" for 1 second.

The analog output is now scaled to the programmed measuring range and the rotary encoder will operate in normal mode. Only the green LED
will light up.

Resetting to the Default Setting

1. Press the two operating buttons ("Lim1" and "Lim2") simultaneously. Both LEDs will light up. Press and hold the operating buttons for 30
seconds. After 15 seconds, the two LEDs will start to flash.

When the green LED goes out and the yellow LED lights up permanently, the measuring range is reset to the default setting.

Status LEDs

The rotary encoder is equipped with two status LEDs. These LEDs have three possible states: off, flashing, or on. The LEDs use different com­binations of these states to indicate the status of the rotary encoder.

Yellow LED Green LED Description

On Off Rotary encoder operation using default settings
Off On Rotary encoder operation using scaled measuring range (customer-

specific setting)

On On Programming mode initiated (temporary state)

Flashes Flashes Rotary encoder in programming mode

On Flashes Position 2 set, waiting for position 1

Flashes On Position 1 set, waiting for position 2

Analog Output Properties

Depending on its design, the rotary encoder projects the current angular position of the rotary encoder shaft in an analog current or voltage value.
The following graphic shows the values the output accepts at the various angular positions:
