9. Enter the data that will be sent to the 7500 module. If you are using the sample program, the

following data should be entered in word N7:10.

10. Enter the gradient value in words N7:11 and N7:12. If the gradient is in meters/second, its value

will be approximately 2813m/s. If this were the gradient, a 2 would be entered in word N7:11 and

813 in word N7:12. If the gradient value is in µsec/inch, its value will be approximately 9.0300

µs/in. If this were the gradient, a 90 would be entered in word N7:11 and 300 in word N7:12. If

the gradient value is in µsec/millimeter, its value will be approximately 0.3555 µs/mm. If this

were the gradient, a 3 would be entered in word N7:11 and 555 in word N7:12.

11. Once the data has been entered, initiate the transfer by manually setting word N7:0 to "1". Once

the transfer is complete, the7500 module will respond by setting the ACKnowledge bit, input

word 0, bit 15, setting any error bits, and resetting N7:0 to 0. The programming cycle is now

complete, and the module is ready for operation.

12. The 7500 module has additional features which allow it to be configured for specific applications.

The users manual contains a complete description of these features and explains how to program

each of them. For example, the Full Scale Length and Full Scale Count Parameters (FSC) can be

used to program the module's resolution. If you want 0.001" resolution, set the FSC to 1000

times the length. If you want 0.01" resolution, set the FSC to 100 times the length. The length

value is typically the transducer length, however, the module will not stop counting if the

position data exceeds the length value. When entering the FSC, please note that the value is

divided into two words. The upper word contains the 1000s places and the lower word contains

the 1s, 10s, and 100s places. For example, if the FSC value is 12,345, the upper word would be

12, and the lower word would the 345.
