1 – Working principle
DPSK micro controlled planarity indicator is a digital device capable of:
1. operating as a common planarity indicator, living as an output axis X and Y
planarity, separately over a 360°degrees range;
2. giving as an output X and Y planarity for two half axis each, allowing DPSK to
be used for auto-levelling or other (optional) functions. Zero setting can be
achieved through a dedicated cable (optional) or through RS-232 dedicated
commands (optional).
DPSK shows reference directions for positive and negative X/Y half-axis.

4- Electrical connections
4.1 Preparation
Cable choice
To avoid any dysfunction due to incorrect wiring, device shall be cabled granting
optimal electric insulation of all parts accessible by unspecialised operators (
insulating resistance > 1GΩx cm).
Mounting must avoid improper cable bending, traction, twisting pressing or squeezing
during machine operation.
Cable shall be chosen so to conform device specific application.
Supply:
1,5 mm2cabling under 1,5 m in length
2 mm2if cabling is over 1,5 m in length
Communication:
RS-232 standard cables
Digital input/communication:
0,5 mm2
Digital output/communication:
0,5 mm2 low-power exit
1 mm2high power exit
Some version may not feature all the connections described.

5- Calibration and setting using RS-232 connection
5.1 Zero
Device zero is factory-calibrated. An after-mounting zeroing is preferable in most of
the cases.
Zero can be achieved in two ways:
5.1.1 – using the following RS-232 specific command (via Hyperterminal-like
program):
ZERO < Enter>
5.1.2 – applying a positive voltage to the “zero-cable” (brown cable) for more than 3
seconds and less than 7 seconds.
No LED outputs are available.
Zero is common to both relay function and half-axes setting.
5.2 Relay switching point
Relays switching points are factory-set. Factory settings can be modified using RS-
232 communication with any Hyperterminal-like program.
Please refer to the following commands to set intervention ranges:
5.2.1 MDEGX maximum allowed angle for X axis (related to defined zero).
5.2.2 MDEGX maximum allowed angle for Y axis (related to defined zero).
Both MDEGX and MDEGY can be set between 0°and 20°abs (absolute value: i.e. if
device is set with zero at 5°, 20°-5°= 15°are left to cover working range).
To set switching angle for X axis using MDEGX command please type desired angle
value multiplied by ten (to allow definition of decimal values of the angle):
MDEGX=40 < Enter>
Sets switching point to 4°.
MDEGX=25 < Enter>
Sets switching point to 2.5°
MDEGX=5 < Enter>
Sets switching point to 0.5°.

5.3 Switching delay interval
Switching delay interval are easily selectable using RS-232 commands between 0.1
and 25.5 seconds. Delays are selectable using RWAIT command (delay before
intervention: waits X seconds to activate alarm) and FWAIT (delay after intervention:
waits X seconds to deactivate alarm).
RWAIT=22 < Enter>
Sets a delay time of 2.2 seconds to activate alarm over axis X or Y.
FWAIT=12 < Enter>
Sets a delay time of 1.2 seconds to deactivate alarm over axis X or Y.
5.4 Configuration using RS-232 protocol
IMPORTANT:
Parameters shall be typed in CAPITAL letters
RS-232 settings are the following:
Communication: 9600 bits/s
Data bit: 8
Parity: none
Stop: 1
Flow control: none
On power-on DPSK sends through RS-232 the following info concerning the device:
• device code;
• HW version;
• SW version;
And waits for the user to send commands.
To ensure the device is operating please press <ENTER> key. If the device is
operating and waiting the answer will be: “SYNTAX ERROR” .
If no returning syntax error message is shown please check connections (both RS-
232 connection and supply voltage connection).
To read the corresponding value of a given parameter the user must type the name
followed by
:
RWAIT:
Gives as an output on the screen the value of RWAIT parameter.
To write the desired value of a given parameter the user must type the name
followed by

- 10 -
=
And the desired value and pres <ENTER> key
RWAIT=12 <Enter>
Sets RWAIT to 1.2 seconds
If the user gives a parameter an out-of-range value or a wrong name “Syntax error”
will be printed on the screen.
In such a case the user shall press <ENTER>.
