Install the sensor on your mounting

surface referencing the appropriate datum

surface as shown on the interface drawing.

A) Benching pins to locate the sensor may be

used if the system mechanical tolerances are

adequate.

B) Tighten the sensor mounting screws and

leave the mounting bracket screws loose to

allow sensor head alignment.

Attach the scale to the base

slide. Reference the preferred

datum on the interface drawing

for either end or center index

orientation.

Depending on the mounting

method, attach the scale to the

slide with adhesive. Refer to pg.

Be sure the grating surface of

the scale faces the sensor. There

is to be no contact between

these surfaces or damage may

result.

Be sure power is off before

connecting the sensor.

Connect the M1200 or M1500P

to your interface electronics

using the pinout diagram

described on the interface

drawing.
