General, Safety, Transport and Storage 4 General, Safety, Transport and Storage 4.1 Information Operating Manual This manual contains important information regarding the handling of the device. For your own safety and operational safety, please ob- serve all safety warnings and instructions. Precondition for safe operation is the compliance with the specified safety and handling instructions.
General, Safety, Transport and Storage 4.4 Demounting and Disposal Unless acceptance and disposal of returned goods are agreed upon, demount the device considering the safety instructions of this manual and dispose it with respect to the environment. Before demounting, disconnect the power supply and secure against re-start. Then disconnect the supply lines physically and discharge remaining energy.
General, Safety, Transport and Storage 4.7 Conventional Use The ELGO-device is only conceived for the conventional use described in this manual. The ELGO LMIX22 length measuring system only serves to measure lengths. CAUTION! Danger through non-conventional use! Non-intended use and non-observance of this operating manual can lead to dangerous situations. Therefore: Only use the device as described ...
Option L: vertical installation ( 7.3.2.2) 5.1 Version LMIX22-007 Instead of a periodical index pulse (channels Z / Z‘), a single reference pulse (channels R / R‘) occurs at the position where the magnet angle MW-007 (accessorial part 12.5) is installed. For more information refer to sections ...
Product Features 5.3 Functional Principle The basis of the magnetic incremental encoders consists of a scanning technology, which scans the north and south poles on the coded magnetic tape and produces a single Sine/Cosine wave for each pole. The complete sine/cosine signal process is interpolated electronically.
Technical Data 6 Technical Data 6.1 Identification The type label serves for the identification of the unit. It is located on the housing of the sensor and gives the exact type designation (=order reference, see type designation) with the corresponding part number. Furthermore, the type label contains a unique, traceable device number.

Installation and First Start-Up 7 Installation and First Start-Up CAUTION Please read the operating manual carefully before using the device! Strictly observe the Instal- lation instructions! In case of damage caused by failure to observe this operating manual, the warranty expires. ELGO is not liable for any secondary damage and for damage to persons, property or assets.
Installation and First Start-Up 7.2.1 The Magnetic Tape MB20-50-10-1(2)-R In the standard case, the magnetic tape is delivered as described It is installed by gluing it to the respective mounting surface. The magnetic tape consists of 2 pre-assembled components (Figure8: Components of the magnetic tape): A magnetized, flexible plastic tape (Pos.
Installation and First Start-Up 7.2.3 Handling In order to avoid tension in the tape, it must not be stretched, compressed or twisted. It should be stored with the magnetized plastic tape to the outside, the minimum bending radius must be noted here.
Installation and First Start-Up The tape must be glued smoothly on the surface. The measuring accuracy decreases if the tape is not even! Before gluing the magnetic tape and the cover tape onto the surface, they should be left lying on the mounting surface for ca.

Therefore it should be ensured that the active (red hatched) sensor area sensor and not the sensor housing is centred on the magnetic tape (...
Installation and First Start-Up 7.3.3 Mounting Tolerances Fasten the sensor head by using two M3 screws. Please note: The tolerances given in the table and in the draw- ings (below) must be observed. Outside these areas the function of the system is not guaranteed! Table 2: Tolerances Tolerances Magnetic tape type...
