Mounting the REXT (partial rotation)
:
IMPORTANT
For partial rotation applications using a DSi, a REXT ring (two reference marks opposite each other) is required.
The ring must be installed so that, when the ring is rotated, each readhead only sees a single reference mark.
Both readheads must see a single reference mark to complete the initialisation sequence, see
The maximum angle of rotation of the rotor / hub is 357° (Figure 1).
The minimum angle of rotation of the rotor / hub is 3° (Figure 2).
The reference mark is output at 0° and will be the average detected difference between readhead (H1) and readhead (H2).
The position of the reference mark output can be set by the user; see
