Analogue speed signal from programmable logic controller (PLC)
This is how you connect a PLC, e.g. a machine controller, to the analogue input of Schaeffler SmartCheck; in our
example, the PLC delivers an analogue speed signal of 0-3000 rpm with 4-20 mA:
The analogue input of the SmartCheck device has a 500 ohm resistance when used as a
current input.
You must also configure the analogue input using the integrated SmartWeb web application. To do this, open the
