Calibrating Temposonics Sensors
Temposonics sensors require a Model 493.47 Encoder Interface
daughter board to be installed in a Model 493.40 Carrier I/O board.
The Carrier I/O connector used depends on the installed location of
the daughter board on the board of the Carrier I/O module.
Determine installed
location
For automated FT SE controllers, determine the installed location of the
Model 493.47 Encoder Interface by using the Hardware tab on the
Station Signals window. Access Station Signals on the Station
Setup window navigation panel.
Defining an input Defining a Temposonics sensor input signal is no different from any
other input signal. For automated FT SE controllers, use the Station
Builder application to allocate a Temposonics sensor to the station
configuration file. The Station Builder application also assigns units to
the signal.
Feedback Resources labeled “Temposonics Input #” or “Temposonics
III Input #” indicate that the optional Temposonics daughter board
(Model 493.47 Encoder Interface) is installed in the Model 493.40
Carrier I/O board.
Important note Procedures for “Automated Controllers” assumes the FlexTest SE
Controller is equipped with the PC-Supervision option, and that
Exclusive Control is assigned to Station Manager. For more information
about Station Manager, see the Model 793.00 System Software manual
that accompanies your system.
