Important Notes for Installation:

● Please read the datasheet, manual and instructions thoroughly prior to
installation.
● Installation should be attempted only by individuals familiar with proper
installation techniques and with codes, standards, and proper safety proce-
dures for electrical installations.
● Recommended to use industrial light weight plastic molded counter con-
nectors and not heavy steel housing M12 counter connectors.
● The use of termination resistors. (see earlier section)
● Please check the modes of operation and transmission.
● Check for all CANopen objects supported by gSENS WGX for configuration
Verify the data packages for CANopen configurations of gSENS WGX
(especially node ID, baud rate, bus timeout period)
● Node ID can never be set to 0 and no two nodes can have same node ID.

Bus termination

It is very important to add termination resistors to the gSENS WGX inclination
sensors which are used at the start or end of the CANopen bus in order to
prevent data corruption or missing of data at higher transmission rates
( ≥50 kB).

Installation leaflet
Thank you for purchasing gSENS WGX. Read this leaflet thoroughly before
installation and use the inclination sensor carefully. Please store this leaflet at
a safe place for later reference.
gSENS WGX inclination sensors sense and measure the angle of tilt
inclination, slope, elevation) of an object with respect to the force of gravity.

Safety Notes

Please check for any external damage to the housing or connector pins.
WARNINGS
● Do not remove or mount the connectors while the power supply is on!
● Avoid mechanical load!
● Do not adapt the housing additionally!
