Safety Information
In order to carry out installation correctly, we strongly recom-
mend this document is read very carefully. This will ensure your
own safety and the operating reliability of the device.
Your device has been quality controlled, tested and is ready for
use. Please respect all warnings and information which are
marked either directly on the device or in this document.
Warranty can only be claimed for components supplied by Opti-
mum-Maschinen GmbH. If display is used together with other
products, the warranty for the complete system is invalid.
Repairs should be carried out only at our works. If any informa-
tion is missing or unclear, please contact Optimum-Maschinen
GmbH sales staff.

Identification
Please check the particular type of unit and type number from the
identification plate. Type number and the corresponding version are
indicated in the delivery documentation.

Short description
The electronic display MA508 is a mains-independent measuring
system. The integrated battery ensures several years of service life
thus enabling quasi-absolute distance or angle measurement.
Magnetic strips or rings, respectively, having a pole lenght of 5 mm
serve as the scale. The position value is displayed via a 5-digit LC
display.
2.4
Installation
For mounting, the degree of protection specified must be observed. If
necassary, protect the unit agaist environmental influences such as
sprayed water, dust, knocks, extreme temperatures.
Attention! Avoid influences by magnetic fields. Take spe-
cial care that no magnetic fields (holding or permanent
magnets) come into direct contact with the magnetic strip.
The following points will result in immediate forfeit of
guarantee:
Disassembly of the electronic display (unless explicitly discribed
in the present user informations).
Knocks on the housing or membrane keyboard since internal
components could be damaged.
Improper fastening of the electronic display.
Storage and operating of the electronic display outside the speci-
fied ambient conditions.

Mounting the magnetic sensor
The housing can be fastened by means of 4 mounting bores in a
front panel cutout.

2.5.1 Mounting the magnetic sensor
The distance measures between active sensor surface and
magnetic strip as well as the angle tolerances must be observed
and kept over the whole measurement section.
The measuring error is negligible within the specified positional
deviations.
Addition of the mounting tolerances on all levels should be
avoied.
In case of an external sensor the service line should be layed so
as to exclude any danger of damage caused by other machine
parts or tensile strength.
