Chapter 1: LTX R10 Digital Output Overview The LTX R10 Digital is a magnetostrictive Linear Displacement Transducer (EZ-track) for highly accurate continuous machine positioning in a variety of industrial applications. This sensor is built to withstand the most severe environmental conditions and is completely absolute. This means that power loss will not cause the unit to lose position information or require re-zeroing.
The diameter of this magnet assembly should not be more than 0.2" away from the rod. Split magnet assemblies outside of this range will cause signal loss. Turck Inc. | 3000 Campus Drive, Minneapolis, MN 55441 | T +1 800 544 7769 | F +1 763 553 0708 | more@turck.com | www.turck.com...
To install the magnet assembly, perform the following steps: 1. Slide the magnet assembly over the EZ-track rod. 2. Mount the magnet to the non-ferrous, movable portion of the device being controlled using non-ferrous screws. 1. LTX R10 2. LB-R10 3.

Recirculations The method used to improve the resolution of a system using a digital LTX R10. The"on” Time of a pulse width output is multiplied by a specific factor (from 1-255). This multiplication provides more counting time for the counter in the customer’s electronics, thus improving the resolution.

If reading is between 7 and 30 VDC, turn power supply off and go to step 7. If reading is below 7 VDC, either your power supply is not providing enough power or the EZ-track’s cable possibly has a short/open. Readings of no voltage or minimal voltage (less than 5 volts) may be due to short/open in the cable.
