  • The P260+ has 3 travel transducer inputs.
  • The P360+ has 6 travel transducer inputs.
  • Analog as well as incremental sensors can be connected to the green connections.
  • 10 VDC inputs are available for the analog sensors; appropriate digital inputs are available for the incremental sensors.
  • A stabilized reference voltage of 10 VDC is provided to supply the travel transducers.

  • The interface of the digital sensors in use must be RS422-compliant. Sensors with 2-track (A/B) and 4-track (AĀ/BB) technology can be used.

Sensor Connections

1

Connect the sensor cables with the blue connector to the A, B, and C blue sensor inputs on the ACTAS P360.

  • The P260+ has 1 sensor input.
  • The P360+ has 3 sensor inputs.
  • Two different types of sensors can be connected to the blue connection. For this purpose, both a 10 VDC measurement input and a 0…20 mA measurement input are available.
  • A stabilized reference voltage of 10 VDC is provided to supply the sensors.
