Summary of procedures

Full rotation
Installation and calibration
When you first install the DSi:
Install and calibrate each TONiC
encoder separately.
Please refer to the TONiC
REXM/T installation guide
(M-9653-9248) for details.
Select the relevant head
!
orientation switch position
on the back of the DSi.
Calibrate the DSi.
Optional:
Select a new propoZ reference
(index) position if desired.
Initialisation
Upon subsequent power-ups of the DSi:
Rotate the axis in one direction
until the LED goes solid green
(K output goes 'high'). This may
require up to 1 full turn.
The propoZ reference (index)
output will now be given when
the axis passes the propoZ
output position.
Partial arc
Installation and calibration
IMPORTANT: Install ring so reference marks are
positioned correctly, relative to the readheads.
Refer to the REXM/T Installation guide
(M-9653-9248) for details.
When you first install the DSi:
Install and calibrate each TONiC
encoder separately on their
respective reference marks.
Select the relevant head
!
orientation switch position
on the back of the DSi.
Calibrate the DSi.
Optional:
Select a new propoZ reference
(index) position if desired.
Initialisation
Upon subsequent power-ups of the DSi:
Rotate the axis to its maximum
travel in both directions. The LED
will go solid green (K output goes
'high') when initialized
The propoZ reference (index)
output will now be given when
the axis passes the propoZ
output position.
!
IMPORTANT
Select the correct head orientation switch position
This switch can be found on the rear of
the DSi. The DSi must be recalibrated if
the switch position is changed.

Select the correct DSi according to whether extension cables are fitted
between the Si interfaces and the DSi.
To minimise voltage drop,
the DSi should be placed
as close to the
power supply
as possible.
