Preliminary information This guide is designed to provide the most complete information the operator needs to correctly and safely install and operate the linear encoders with guided profile of the SMAG series that provide SSI interface and Gray output code. The SMAG sensors are engineered to measure linear displacements in industrial machines and automation lines.
failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the equipment; Lika Electronic assumes no liability for the customer's failure to comply with these requirements. 1.2 Electrical safety ...
SMAG + MTAG SSI - minimize noise by connecting the shield or the connector housing to ground. Make sure that ground is not affected by noise. The connection point to ground can be situated both on the device side and on user’s side. The best solution to minimize the interference must be carried out by the user;...

SMAG + MTAG SSI 3 – Mechanical installation WARNING Installation and maintenance operations must be carried out by qualified personnel only, with power supply disconnected and mechanical parts absolutely in stop. 3.1 Overall dimensions (Figure 1) (values are expressed in mm) Figure 1 L = 195 mm / 7.677”...
SMAG + MTAG SSI 2. or, on the contrary, you can fasten the sensor to a fixed support and move the profile of the magnetic tape. It is customer's duty to evaluate the type of installation that is most suitable for his application.
SMAG + MTAG SSI 3.4 Profile of the magnetic tape (Figure 2) It is mandatory to pair the sensor with the MTAG type magnetic tape. The profile of the magnetic tape can be secured: 1. to a sliding device driven manually, pneumatically or by a motor; in this first case the tape will move back and forth while the sensor will be mounted in a fixed position;...
Counting direction Grey Shielding Shield Case 4.1.1 M8 cable specifications Model : LIKA HI-FLEX sensor cable type M8 Wires : 2 x 0.22 mm + 6 x 0.14 mm (24/26 AWG) Jacket : Matt Polyurethane (TPU) halogen free, oil, hydrolysis, abrasion resistant : tinned copper braid, coverage ...
SMAG + MTAG SSI 4.1.3 Connection of the shield For signals transmission always use shielded cables. The cable shielding must be connected properly to the metal ring nut of the connector in order to ensure a good earthing through the frame of the device. 4.1.4 Ground connection Minimize noise by connecting the shield or the connector housing to ground.
SMAG + MTAG SSI the Counting direction input to 0Vdc if not used. Connect the counting direction input to 0Vdc to have the count up information when the sensor moves as shown by the white arrow in Figure 2 (or when the profile moves as shown by the black arrow in Figure 2);...
SMAG + MTAG SSI At each change of the clock signal and at each subsequent rising edge (2) one bit is clocked out at a time, up to LSB, so completing the data word transmission. The cycle ends at the last rising edge of the clock signal (3). This means that up to n + 1 rising edges of the clock signals are required for each data word transmission (where n is the bit resolution);...

SMAG + MTAG SSI The output code is GRAY. The measuring step is equal to the resolution (0.1 mm … 0.005 mm). Structure of the transmitted position value: SMAG-GA-100-... bits 25 … 14 SMAG-GA-50-... bits 25 … 15 SMAG-GA-10-... bits 25 …...
SMAG + MTAG SSI 4.4 Recommended transmission rates The SSI interface has a frequency of data transmission ranging between 100 kHz and 1.5 MHz. The CLOCK signals and the DATA signals are transmitted according to the “EIA RS-422” standard. The clock frequency (baud rate) depends on the length of the cables and must comply with the technical information reported in the following table.
SMAG + MTAG SSI 5 - Maintenance This magnetic measurement system does not need any particular maintenance; anyway it has to be handled with the utmost care as it is a delicate electronic equipment. From time to time we recommend the following operations to be performed: periodically check the soundness of the structure and make sure that •...
