Page 8: Proscale Terminology
SCALE consists of a series of conductive patterns bonded to an aluminum extrusion. The Model 150 Scale is .765 inches (19mm) wide and comes in standard lengths of 14.25 inches (362mm) and 22.25 inches (565mm) to measure 10 inches (250mm) and 18 inches (450mm) respectively. -
Page 9: Incremental
ReadHeads and Scales of different technologies are not compatible. Incremental Scales have a repeating “bar” pattern on a colored laminate. Incremental Scale All ProScale Model 150 and Model 250 Systems Use Absolute (ABS) parts. Absolute and Incremental Scales are not interchangeable. See Section 7: for Scale Part Number information. -
Page 10: Readheads
Standard Incremental ReadHead is supplied with a 300mm (12in) cable. Part #: 701-1500-N12 (last 3 digits indicate cable length in inches) All ProScale Model 150 and Model 250 Systems Use Absolute (ABS) parts. Absolute and Incremental ReadHeads are not interchangeable. -
Page 11: Displays
Displays ProScale Model 150 and 250 measuring Systems can operate with any of several different Displays (sometimes referred to as Digital Readouts). This manual covers the operation of the General Purpose LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) Displays. Other available Displays are mentioned in this section, and other data acquisition accessories are mentioned in Section 6 of this manual. -

Scale simultaneously. Scale & ReadHead Installation ProScale Model 150 is easy to install. By following the basics of good installation, reliable, error-free operation can be expected. ProScale M150 can be used in many different measurement applications, and with numerous types and brands of equipment. - Page 17 ReadHead will simplify the process.) Determine an appropriate mounting location. Most applications of the Model 150 will have the ReadHead held stationary while the Scale is passed through the ReadHead. The ProScale will also operate properly if the ReadHead is moved along the Scale (see figures on next page).

Page 23: Calibration/Maintenance
ECTION ALIBRATION AINTENANCE Calibration The accuracy of the ProScale system is dependent on the manufacturing of the Scale. Since the Scale is passive, there are no calibration adjustments available or necessary. The Displays have a built-in “scaling factor” that allows correction for slight linear inaccuracies that may be observed once ProScale has been installed in your application. -

To disable compensation mode, change Pr 27 to 0. This does not erase the compensation table stored in memory. Changing Pr 27 to 1 will re-enable the previously stored compensation. Note: Defaulting the display back to factory settings does not erase the compensation table. -
