Operating instructions

• Safety information

Warni ng

• Sensor versions

The F90 linear position measurement system is available in 2 versions.
In the PMI...-F90-IU-V1 version, the position measuring system transmits current and voltage signals pro­portional to the position of the damping element at the outputs.
The PMI...-F90-IE8-V15 version offers a current signal as well as the option of teaching in two switching
points directly at the sensor independently of one another at the press of a button, which is then indicated
on two switching outputs. Two additional LEDs indicate the output states of the two switching outputs.

Version PMI…-F90-IU-V1

Output signals: 4 mA ... 20 mA and 0 V ... 10 V

Note

Version PMI…-F90-IE8-V15

Output signals: 4 mA ... 20 mA and 2 programmable switching amplifiers

• Programming the PMI…-F90-IE8-V15

The rear of the PMI...-F90-IE8-V15 sensor has two small, slightly recessed push buttons for programming
the switching points. The buttons are marked "teach in" and S1 for switching point S1 and S2 for switching
point S2.
To teach in a switching point, proceed as follows:

- The position detection damping element must be placed at the relevant position, i.e. the switching point
that you wish to teach in.

This product may not be used in applications where personal safety
depends on the function of the device.
This product is not a safety component as described in EU Machinery Direc­tive.

Only the current output or the voltage output may be used. The unused output must remain
load free.
