Direction, Feedback, & Auto-Mapping (Proportional MEP-7xx2 Models)

NOTE: The auto-mapping feature works best for

ranges that are more than about 45°.

To set the auto-mapping:
1. If desired, use the HMO-4536 adjustable end stop

kit to limit the stroke of the actuator.

2. With power applied to the actuator, flip selector

switch #2 (from its required CW or CCW

increasing voltage direction) to start the reset

mode. The actuator will first move to the CCW

limit. The complete reset process will take

approximately four minutes.

NOTE: On fail-safe models, wait for at least one

minute after power has been applied to

the actuator (allowing the capacitors to

fully charge) before initiating the automap

feature.

3. Return selector switch #2 to the required

increasing voltage direction before the reset

finishes. The reset process is complete after the

actuator has moved to the CW limit and has

begun to position normally.

4. Verify that the actuator travels completely across

the new range.

For example, after completing the auto-mapping

program, the new actuator stroke is 0–80°:
Before Jan. 2014, a 5 VDC input signal (halfway

between 0–10 VDC) will drive the actuator to the

40° position (50% of its adjusted range) and the

feedback voltage will be 2.5 VDC if switch #1 is set

at the 0–5 VDC position or 5 VDC if switch #1 is

set at 0–10 VDC.

Starting in Jan. 2014, a 6 VDC input signal

(halfway between 2–10 VDC) will drive the

actuator to the 40° position (50% of its adjusted

range) and the feedback voltage will be 3 VDC if

switch #1 is set at the 1–5 VDC position or 6 VDC

if switch #1 is set at 2–10 VDC.

NOTE: The auto-mapping option is not available

with Master/Slave applications.

Proportional models offer selectable actuator rota-

tion direction and selectable proportional feedback

of 1–5 VDC or 2–10 VDC (in either direction).
To access the selector switches (see Illustration 6.),

loosen the screws on the conduit fitting and lift up to

remove the fitting. The selector switches are shipped

from the factory in the 1–5 VDC (#1) and CW move-

ment with increasing voltage (#2) positions.

*NOTE: Selector Switch #2 has two functions:

1. Switch #2 determines the direction to rotate

(CW or CCW) with increasing voltage and is

factory set in the CW position (down). To

change, remove power before flipping the

switch up to the CCW position. Removing

power prevents initiation of the auto-mapping

feature.

2. Switch #2 initiates the auto-mapping

feature. (See description below.) This feature

is initiated only by cycling the switch with

power applied to the unit. The auto-mapping

feature will NOT begin if the switch position

is changed with power removed or in the

event of a power failure.

MEP-7xx2 models also offer a actuator/signal range

reset program (auto-mapping) feature that reassigns

the full 2–10 VDC input signal scale over a reduced

stroke range for more precise control.

NOTE: Before Jan. 2014, MEP-7xx2 proportional

have 2–10 VDC inputs and 1–5 or 2–10

VDC feedback instead.
