Configuration with the BTL7 Configuration Tool (continued)
6.3 Configuration options
Prerequisites
- USB communication box connected to the BTL and
PC.
- Software correctly installed.
- BTL connected to the power supply.
- Magnet on BTL.
Output functions
- Position: Position in the measuring range.
- Velocity: velocity of the magnet. The sign indicates the
direction of movement. Movement from the null point
to the end point is output with a positive sign.
Movement from the end point to the null point is output
with a negative sign. Max. detectable velocity range of
−10 to +10 m/s.
- Velocity (no sign): velocity of the magnet. The
direction of movement cannot be read. Max.
detectable velocity range of 0 to 10 m/s.
Freely configurable curve
- Null and end point can be read (teach-in) or specified
with the mouse.
- For position, the distance between the null point and
end point must be at least 4 mm (0.15 inch) and
100 mm/s (4 inch/s) for velocity.
- The characteristic curve can be inverted.
- The limits can be adjusted to the measuring range.
- The error value can be set in accordance with the
limits.

Uncontrolled system movement
When starting up, if the position measuring system is
part of a closed loop system whose parameters have not
yet been set, the system may perform uncontrolled
movements. This could result in personal injury and
equipment damage.
► The system must be taken out of operation before
configuration.
► The BTLs may only be connected to the
communication box for configuration.
► The communication box must be removed after
configuration.
