  • Page 17 Power output While the sensor power supply output of the LE-40MD is 24 V DC, the specification has been changed to 12 V DC for LE7- DCA. Since the power supply voltage specifications of many rotary encoders feature dual system of 24 V DC and 12 V DC, the sensor can often be used as it is after replacement.

Analog input When it is used for general-purpose input, function assignment is required (same as the LE-30CTN(A)). The voltage range can also be switched in the LE-40GU.
  • Page 22: Chapter 4 Differences In Sequence Operation

    DIFFERENCES IN SEQUENCE OPERATION This section describes the differences in sequence operation. Stall Memory Stall memory is a function to memorize the control output at the moment when the operation/stop command has changed from operation to stop. In unwinding and winding control, in case the system stops while the material on the reel shaft is not completely finished, the control output at the moment the system makes a stop is memorized.
  • Page 23 When the stall memory reset input is used with LE-40MTA, B(-E) In the LE7-40GU-L, the response of the automatic control output is faster than the LE- 40MTA, B(-E), and therefore there is no problem if it is used with only stall setting without using stall memory (when the stall memory reset input is short-circuited in the LE-40MTA, B(-E), the contacts of stall memory need not be short-circuited in the LE7-40GU-L).
  • Page 24: Output Gain Function

    Output Gain Function The output gain function mitigates the tension fluctuation due to the moment of inertia of the reel shaft materials during acceleration or deceleration. In the LE-40MTA, B(-E), since the control output changes either when the gain input changes from OFF to ON or ON to OFF, tension fluctuation may occur when the gain input changes from ON to OFF.
