  • Page 39 A HCSI sensor can have one or more channels. In the sensor, a channel number is stored for every channel. A maximum of 28 channels can be allocated in the HMG 4000. Each channel number may only appear in the bus configuration just once and can be changed or reassigned at the HMG 4000.
  • Page 40 HCSI Y splitter Bus termination Starting from HMG 4000, the bus setup may only be in one direction. The HMG 4000 must always be the first participant in the bus. Branching the HMG 4000 in two directions is not permitted!
  • Page 41 Handling measured values The HMG 4000 sends a measured value query via the bus. After this, all connected HCSI sensors send their measured value. Once the HMG has received all measured values, it will send the next query. The refresh time of the measured values is specified automatically via the number of connected sensors.
  • Page 42 CAN bus systems in particular. Before the HMG 4000 is set up in a running CAN bus system, corresponding presets and parameter specifications need to be adjusted for the HMG 4000 according to the type and model of the CAN bus system and the way it is connected.
