Rotary encoder connection (X5)
The connection of the optional rotary encoder is established through an M12 5-pin plug at
the flange socket X5. In applications with a varying product speed, the rotary encoder
synchronizes the feed rate of the labels with the conveyor system.
Devices with HTL interface are suitable as rotary encoders.
Alarm lamp connection (X6)
Limited power consumption.
Only use an alarm lamp with LED technology (item 22702287).
The optional alarm lamp can be connected via an M12 8-pin plug at the flange socket X6.

USB port
Fig. 6-10: USB port (external
view)
The labeler has a USB interface (type A) on the inside of the
enclosure that can be used to update the firmware (comparable
to the operating system) of the controllers. The USB port is ex-
clusively intended for the connection of a USB stick.
Network connection (X20)
Fig. 6-11: Ethernet connection
The Ethernet connection is established through an M12 4-pin
plug at the flange socket X20.
Via the Ethernet interface the labeler can be connected to the
Weber service software for data exchange, error diagnosis, re-
mote control or setting of all parameters. It is also possible to
communicate with and operate the labeler from a higher-level
control system (PLC) via this interface.
With the Zero-Down-Time function or during alternating opera-
tion, two labelers are connected to each other via the network
connection.
