Operation Manual EMGZ 490 2 Product Description 2.1 Product Range The tension amplifier EMGZ 490 series is available in three different housing options. ● EMGZ 490.R DIN-rail mount housing ● EMGZ 490.Ro DIN-rail mount open version ● EMGZ 490.W Wall mount housing For detailed information about the mechanical dimensions refer to the outline drawings in chapter 9.
Operation Manual EMGZ 490 3 Quick Installation Guide The set-up of the EMGZ 490 and force sensors is limited to only the installation procedure, offset compensation and the calibration. 3.1 Preparations for Set-up 1. Read the Operation Manual of your force measuring sensors 2.
The cable must be installed separate from power lines. Fig. 2: Wiring Diagram EMGZ 490 Color scheme (IEC60757) and pin codes are valid for FMS components, only! Caution Bad earth connection may cause electric shock to persons, malfunction of the total system or damage of the electronic unit! It is vital to ensure that proper earth connection is done.
Calculator. This Calculator can be down loaded from the FMS web page. FMS recommends using the method with the weight (see Fig. 3) since it delivers the most accurate results. To set the Gain, load a rope with a defined weight on the roller.
Operation Manual EMGZ 490 4.3 Calibration Procedure 1. Activate web interface (ref. to chapter 8.1) and call web page „Offset/Calibration over the web browser” (see chapter 8.3). 2. Connect volt meter to the voltage output (Fig. 2, terminal 4/5) 3. Connect first force sensor to the amplifier (see Fig. 2).
It replaces the binary value (first digit). This calculation method is also used by the FMS Calculator tool. Thus it is possible to use the gain value calculated by the FMS Calculator directly in the calibration. The gain value is then In this entered in the parameter set of the amplifier (see chapter 8.2 “Parameter Setting”).

The MAC-address is part of the network card of the corresponding device. It is set at the factory for each EMGZ 490 device and subsequently it cannot be changed. The MAC-address is lost after a firmware update.
The IP-address is assigned to each device via the PLC. The device must have an IP-address of 0.0.0.0 after power up to enable the assignment of the final IP-address. This is the case after each EMGZ 490 restart. Static IP-address: A static IP-address is required to enable the PLC accessing a web interface.
Operation Manual EMGZ 490 The EMGZ 490 uses the static IP address 192.168.0.90, if the digital input 1 is activated. To activate Dig. In 1 connect terminal 1 with 6 (24VDC with Dig. In 1) (see Fig. 2). In this case the IP- address cannot be changed. Since every device has an unique address in the same network, a re-assignment via an PLC is not possible.
Operation Manual EMGZ 490 6 Configuration The configuration of the EMGZ 490 can be performed either over a web interface or over PROFINET. In both case the same parameters are configured. 6.1 Description of Parameters PROFINET Filter Use: The amplifier provides a low-pass filter for PROFINET data to prevent noise and interferences being overlaid to the PROFINET output.

Operation Manual EMGZ 490 7.7 Configuration File GSDML Thus, the acyclic data traffic can operate independently from the cyclic, and the two don’t interfere with each other, a new module in the PROFINET IO-device configuration was introduced. The graph (Fig. 8) shows the actual module configuration: Fig.
Using the web interface requires knowledge of the IP address. Your IT system administrator can provide information about the assigned addresses. After entering the IP address in your web browser the home page of EMGZ 490 will appear (see Fig. 10). Caution The web interface may only be used in the test mode since data communication can interfere with the PLC.
