Attach the scale to the base
slide. Reference the preferred
datum on the interface drawing
for either end or center index
orientation.
Depending on the mounting
method, attach the scale to the
slide with adhesive. Refer to
pg. 12 for details.
Be sure the grating surface of
the scale faces the sensor. Insure
that there is no contact
between these surfaces or
damage may result.

Be sure power is off before connecting
the sensor.
Connect the M1500H to your interface
electronics using the pinout diagram
and mating connector described on the
interface drawing.
Power up the system. See pg. 13 for
proper grounding and strain relief.
Install the sensor on your mounting surface
referencing the appropriate datum surface as
shown on the interface drawing. Use 2 washers
per mounting screw.
Benching pins may be used to locate the sensor
if the system mechanical tolerances are adequate.
See data sheet for alignment tolerances, or keep
mounting screws loose for sensor alignment if
benching pins are not used.
