1 Symbols used The note at the right of the symbol must be observed in all cases. The following path and file details refer to a CD drive (use the correct drive letter). The following path and file details refer to a hard disk (use the correct drive letter). Button Symbol for the corresponding button or key in the user interface. low bold Italic text, used here for the voltage level of a switched output (only for DSL.R). Bold italic text, used here for the file paths and file names.
2 Device versions The DSL is a speed switch that is integrated into an incremental encoder. At the time of writing (edition: March 2009) it is supplied in two versions: Version 1: DSL.R suitable for operation with the external relay module DS 93 R. • Version with 3 switched outputs that can be switched according to the speed. If the device is at standstill or the rotational speed n is less than the switching speed ns(off) then the corresponding switched output will be high.
4 Installation After inserting the CD in the drive, use Explorer to go to the \DSL\Installer\ directory and start setup.exe. This will install the program and the runtime library. The installation language is only available in english. After starting the setup program, the following screens will appear (Figs. 1 and 2): Fig. 1 Installation Fig. 2 Installation It is recommended that you keep to the default installation path.
5 First program start Before the program start the RS485-Converter has to be connected otherwise the serial interface used by the converter will not appear in the overview of all usable serial interfaces. The first time the program is started, a selection screen will appear where you can choose the language for the user interface and the system interface (Fig. 4). The software version of the user interface is displayed in the header of this window.
5.2 Interface To establish a connection with the DSL, the serial interface (to which the RS 485 converter is connected) must be set up in the selection field (Fig. 5). Fig. 5: COM port selection The Auto-Scan function can be used in following cases: 1. If the RS485-Converter was connected after the programm start and the serial interface does not appear in the overview 2.
5.3 Saving the settings The language selected and the serial interface that is used are recorded in a configuration file \DSL Software.ini in the main directory of the operator program. For subsequent program starts, the settings are read out from this file and the start window will not appear again. To alter the language setting at a later date, the software must be started without a DSL being connected. In this case, the start screen will appear once more.

6 User interface When the DSL has been detected on a serial interface, the parameters will be read out from the internal memory of the device (Fig. 7). Fig. 7: Fetching device data After all the parameters from the DSL have been read out, the complete user interface will appear (Fig. 8). Fig. 8: User interface This is divided into three sections: Baumer_DSL-WinXP_MA_ENBaumer_DSL-WinXP_MA_EN.doc 10/22 01.11.
6.1 Information window Fig. 9: Information window The data for the connected device are shown in the information window (Fig. 9), with the exact type designation, serial number, device software version, number of counts per turn. If the DSL is protected by a password, then a small padlock symbol will appear in the information window. If the user is not logged in to the DSL, it will appear red and locked unlocked , after log-in it changes to green and .
6.2 Status window The status window (Fig. 10) shows the current speed of the connected device and the states of the three outputs (DSL.R) or the three relays (DSL.E) through indicator lights. • Indicator light is green: Relay is closed and at least a current of 5 mA flows (DSL.E), or switched output is high (DSL.R). • Indicator light is yellow: Relay is closed but no current or less than a current of 5 mA flows (DSL.E), or switched output is high (DSL.R).
6.3 Main window The register cards at the bottom of the window can be used to switch between the three main software functions: Switching speed 6.3.1 Speed monitor Messages Register: Switching speeds After the device data have been read out, the register Switching speeds appears, in which the parameters that are stored in the DSL can be read out and edited. Fig. 11: “Switching speeds” register for DSL.E The third output shown in Fig. 11 is the check output of the DSL.E (described above under 6.2).
• The maximum OFF switching speeds that can be entered as parameters are the maximum encoder speeds (see separate data sheet). Higher values will be reset to this maximum value. If an OFF switching speed is set to be lower than the corresponding ON speed, then the ON speed will be corrected to the maximum possible value (the OFF switching speed minus the minimum hysteresis).
6.3.2 Register: Speed monitor Fig. 12: “Speed monitor” register The Speed monitor register (Fig. 12) shows the present speed curve as a function of time. The highest and lowest speed values that have occurred since the start of recording are marked respectively by a red line (maximum value) and a green line (minimum value). The ordinate scaling is made automatically to match the minimum and maximum that have been recorded.
6.3.3 Register: Messages Fig. 13: “Messages” register C:\DSL_Parameter.txt which is stored The Messages register (Fig. 13) shows the contents of the log file on the computer. The scroll bar can be used to scroll through the entire text. If the warning symbol appears in the information window (see Chapter 6.1 “Information window”), the reason for the warning will also be displayed. Delete error can be used to remove the warning.
7 Log-in Before switching speeds can be programmed or errors can be deleted, a log-in is required. To do this, it is necessary to enter a user name (Fig. 14). This name is stored in the DSL and in the C:\DSL_Parameter.txt log file. If the DSL is protected by a password, this password will also be requested. After entering the user name and (if required) the password, the user can choose between Log-in and Log-in and new password. Fig.
8 Communication error If the communication between the PC and DSL is faulty (for instance, because the connecting cable has been disconnected or the supply voltage was interrupted) then the following message will appear: Fig. 16: Communication error Use Reconnect to establish communication once more – a fresh log-in is not required. In exceptional cases, the program will have to be stopped and then restarted. Baumer_DSL-WinXP_MA_ENBaumer_DSL-WinXP_MA_EN.doc 18/22 01.11.
9 Log file When altered data (switching points, password …) are saved in the DSL, an entry is made in the C:\DSL_Parameter.txt log file. Example: Entry for switching points Serial number: 2271560481 Device type: POG10DN2500I+DSL.R SW Version: 0.07 Last change: Date: 06.04.
