2Definitions
Offset: Correction value for compensation of the zero point difference. Thanks to the offset, it
is ensured that a force of 0N will generate a signal of zero exactly.
Gain: Amplification factor for the measuring signal. Use of an appropriate value will adjust
the force sensor signal to the tension feedback value exactly.
Strain gauge: Electronic component that will change its resistance while its length has
changed. Strain gauges are used in the FMS force sensors for acquisition of the feedback
value.
Subprint: Electronic extension module which can be plugged to the main board of the
electronic unit if required. That way, the possibilities of the electronic unit can be extended
easily.

4System Description

E622001e
4.1 Functional Description
The double range force sensors of each measuring point measure the tension force in the
material and transmit the measuring values as mV signals to the electronic units
EMGZ622A/642A. The electronic unit amplifies the mV signals of each measuring range
depending on configuration. The resulting feedback values are shown in the display in [N] (lbs
if required) for each measuring range. In addition, the feedback values are provided at the
analogue outputs and various interfaces and can be evaluated by analogue instruments, a PLC
or equivalent devices.
4.2 Double Range Force Sensors
The force sensors are based on the flexion beam principle. The flexion is measured by strain
gauges and transmitted to the electronic unit as mV signal. Due to the Wheatstone wiring of
the strain gauges, the measured value is depending also to the power supply. So, the force
sensors are supplied from the electronic unit by a very accurate power supply.
4.3 Electronic Units EMGZ622A/642A
Common
The electronic unit is mounted to a robust aluminium housing. It contains a microprocessor to
handle all calculations and communications, the highly accurate sensor power supply and the
signal amplifiers for the measuring values of up to two measuring points. The electronic unit
has no trimmers and only few Dip-switch, jumpers to keep most accurate long-time and
temperature stability.
Operation
The large backlit display with 2x16 characters, 4 LED’s and large keys guarantee simple
operation. All information is in plain text with the following languages selectable: English,
German, French and Italian. Most of the functions may be paramterized. The parametrization
can be done via the keys or the interfaces. All inputs are fail-safe stored in an EEPROM.
Additional settings can be made with Dip switch, jumpers or solder bridges.

Strain gauge amplifier
The strain gauge amplifier provides the highly accurate power supply (5VDC or 10VDC) for 1
or 2 force sensors per measuring point. The force sensors can be wired using 4 wire circuit or
6 wire circuit. This allows accurate control of the bridge excitation even with very long
cabling.
The power supply is equipped with current control. This allows to detect short circuit or cable
breaks automatically and to output an error message if required.
A highly accurate, fixed difference amplifier rises the mV signal up to 10V. This signal will be
fed to the A/D converter. The microprocessor then does all application specific calculations
with the digitized measuring value (such as offset, gain, lowpass filter, limit switches, etc).
The resulting feedback value is provided as both tension and current signal at the same time.
Using digital inputs, the amplifier can be switched easily between 2 different gain values (for
ex. to process different operating conditions). There is no reconfiguration required to switch
the gain values.
The strain gauge amplifier section written above is integrated separately for each channel to
provide independent evaluation of each measuring range of each measuring point.
Type Number of
channels Sensors per
channel Feedback signals
EMGZ622A 1 2 channel 1 = range 1A
channel 2 = range 1B
EMGZ642A 2 2 channel 1 = range 1A
channel 2 = range 1B
channel 3 = range 2A
channel 4 = range 2B
Interface
As an option, there are RS232, PROFIBUS, CAN-Bus or DeviceNet interfaces available.

5Quick Installation Guide
•Check all your requirements such as:
– configuration of the analogue inputs (power supply, 4 wire or 6 wire circuit)?
– configuration of the analogue outputs (signal level)?
– gain switching required?
– digital input / output assignment?
– linking by interface etc.?
•Draw your final wiring diagram according to the wiring diagram (refer to „7.2 Wiring
diagram“)
•Install and wire all your components (refer to „7. Installation and wiring“)
•Parametrize and calibrate the measuring amplifier for each channel (refer to
„8. Operating“)
•Put system into operation; proceed a test run with low speed
•If required, do additional settings (refer to „8.4 Additional settings“)
