4.4 Input device types
4.4.1 Proximity switch
4.4.1.1 Requirements of the proximity switches
} Only "pnp" type proximity switches may be used (N/O contact, switching to positive).
} The proximity switches require a 24 VDC supply.
} The proximity switches must be fitted so that at least one is always activated (carries a
high signal).
} The proximity switches must be fitted so that the recorded signals overlap.
} When monitoring with proximity switches we recommend you use proximity switches
with hysteresis in order to prevent bounce and therefore incorrect measurements.

CAUTION!
Appropriate installation measures should be taken to prevent a foreign body
coming between the signal encoder and the proximity switch. The foreign
body could cause one of the proximity switches to be constantly energised
(constant high signal).
} Please note the values stated in the technical details
4.4.2 Incremental encoders
4.4.2.1 Requirements of the incremental encoders
} Only incremental encoders with a differential output of the following type are permitted
– HTL (12 V – 30 V)
} Please note the values stated in the technical details
