Read the Operation Manual of your force measuring sensors 2. Check your requirements such as: − Desired output configuration ±10V or 0/4… 20mA − Devise Mode (Force Gauge or Volt Gauge) − Cut off frequency of low-pass filter 3. Draw the wiring diagram for your configuration (ref. to 2.6 “Wiring the Amplifier“) 2.2 Installation Procedure 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Mount your force maesuring sensors to the machine Wire the Force Measuring Sensor(s) (ref. to Fig. 1 and 2) Connect the amplifier to the power supply. The power supply voltage must be in the range 18 to 36V DC. Perform offset compensation and calibration (ref. to chapters 3.4 to 3.7) If required, do additional settings (ref. to 4 “ Parameterization”) 2.3 Mounting the Force Sensors Mounting of the force sensors is done according to the FMS Installation manual which is delivered together with the force sensors. 2.4 Installation and wiring Caution Proper function of the Tension Measuring Amplifier is only guaranteed with the recommended application of the components. In case of other arrangement, heavy malfunction can be the result. Therefore, the installation instructions on the following pages must be followed strictly. Caution Local installation regulations are to preserve safety of electric equipment. They are not taken into consideration by this operating manual. However, they have to be followed strictly. 10.01.2017 Operating Manual EMGZ310 and EMGZ310.ComACT 2.5 Block diagram Fig. 1: Block diagram EMGZ 310 E310001e 2.6 Wiring the Amplifier One or two force sensors can be connected to the measuring amplifier. When using two force sensors, the output signal of the measuring amplifier will then correspond to the average value of the two sensors. The connection between force sensors and measuring amplifier has to be done using a 2x2x0.25mm2 [AWG 23] shielded twisted-pair cable. Fig. 2: Wiring of EMGZ 310 10.01.2017 E310002e Operating Manual EMGZ 310 Caution Bad earth connection may cause electric shock to persons, malfunction of the total system or damage of the control unit. It is vital to ensure a proper earth ground connection. Note The shield should be connected only to the electronic unit. On the force sensor side the shield should stay open. Note Sensor cables must be installed separate from power lines. 2.7 Modify the wiring For an easy and quick exchange of an amplifier it is possible to exchenge the single terminal blocks as assembly. You neither have to disconnect the wiring, nore do you have to open the housing of the device. Make sure that the amplifier is disconnected from the power supply. Insert a screw driver with a small blade in between the terminal block and the housing on the top end of the block Using the screw driver as a lever will loosen the block from the housing. It will slide downwards The block is now disconnected. You can slide it out the device. Insert the block on the desired position. Push the block fully into the slot. You will hear a “click” sound as the block interlocks 10.01.2017 Operating Manual EMGZ310 and EMGZ310.ComACT 3 Configuring the Amplifier 3.1 Power up the EMGZ 310 1. Connect the first force sensor (see Fig.2 Wiring Diagram EMGZ310) 2. Check whether applying a force in measuring direction (in the direction of the red point) on the first sensor results in a positive output signal. If not, exchange the two signal wires of this force sensor in the terminal block (terminals 6/7). 3. If applicable, connect the second force sensor. 4. Check whether applying a force in measuring direction on the second sensor results in a positive output signal. If not, exchange the two signal wires of this force sensor in the terminal block (terminals 6/7). 3.2 Operating the EMGZ310 over the Operating Panel The EMGZ310 amplifier can go in 4 different states: Operation State: Amplifier operating Offset Compensation: Automatic procedure to offset the roller weight Calibration State: Procedure to calculate the amplifier gain Parameterisation State: Set or change parameters When using the operating panel, the user can toggle between these modes by pressing a key or a combination of keys. 3.3 Operating Panel The keys on the operation panel have the following functions: Key Key Function Change the selections, increase / decrease the values or choose Enter >0< + PARA Enter Offset Compensation Procedure.

Leave the Parametrisation by holding the key for longer than 3 sec. Caution Each change of the Device Mode requires a re-calibration of the system 3.5 Offset Compensation With the Offset Compensation the roller weight is compensated. It is always performed before the calibration. The Force Measuring Sensor should not be loaded while the Offset Compensation is performed. 1. Start offset compensation by pressing the two keys >0< + PARA at the same time for longer than 3 seconds. 2. The offset compensation is done automatically.(see state diagram Fig.4) Fig. 4: State diagram offset compensation 10.01.2017 EMGZ310008e 11 Operating Manual EMGZ310 and EMGZ310.ComACT 3.6 Calibration By calibrating (setting the Gain), amplifier and force sensors are adjust so that the display gives the actual tension value. There are two methods of calibrating the system. The first method uses a defined weight attached at a rope (see Fig. 5). The second method is based on a calculation process in conjunction with the FMS Calculator tool. The method with the calibration weight is preferred since it simulates the real material path in the machine and delivers the most accurate results. If the material tension cannot be simulated in the machine by the weight method (e.g. Fig. 5: Calibrating the because of space restrictions), the gain can measuring amplifier C431011e be calculated with the FMS Calculator tool. This Calculator can be down loaded from the FMS web page. 10.01.2017 12 Operating Manual EMGZ 310 3.7 Calibration Procedure in the Force Gauge Mode Note If you do not press any key on the operating panel the display will automatically switch to the intitial screen. You have to repeat any previously performed steps. Execute the single steps uninterrupted and prepare any required material in advance. 1. Load a rope with a defined weight corresponding to your calibration force on the roller. The roller configuration must correspond to the real configuration in the machine (wrap angle, distance of the rollers etc.). 1000 Sys_F 2. Enter calibration mode by pressing the two keys Cal and PARA at the same time for longer than 3 seconds. The display changes to 3.

The EMGZ310.ComACT has also the last 4 digits of its serial number printed on the front housing. Only a single mobile device at a time can connect to an amplifier. As soon as the connection between amp and mobile device is setup, the display of the amp will start flashing. The FMS ComACTTM app is meant as an operation aid to display actual readings and to help configure the amplifier. The settings are only stored in the amplifier and not in the mobile device. 10.01.2017 22 Operating Manual EMGZ 310 5.1 Screenshots Download FMS ComACTTM app Google Play Store (Android); iTunes (IOS) Overview with all amplifiers within the transmitting range.
