2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The device left the factory in perfect condition relative to technical safety. To maintain this
condition and for hazard-free operation, all of the following instructions in this manual must be
carefully heeded.
Correct and safe use of this device requires that operating and service personnel be familiar with
generally valid safety guidelines, comply with them, and heed the special safety comments that
are listed in this manual. Where necessary, points on the device that are safety-sensitive are
marked.
i
Since the device is electrical equipment, it should only be commissioned and
operated by trained personnel. Maintenance should only be performed by
expert, competent personnel. Repair is only possible in the epro factory.
2.1 Using the device MMS

The 2-channel MMS 6220 shaft eccentricity monitor is a component of the MMS 6000 machine
monitoring system. In conjunction with two eddy current measuring chains the monitor is used
to measure and monitor the relative shaft eccentricity of all types of turbines, compressors, fans,
gear units etc. The monitor should only be used for measurement purposes.
Adjusting elements:
The machine is adjusted so that it is ready for operation. Usually adjustment elements such as
jumpers do not need to be changed or modified. If switch changes are necessary for device
configuration then these changes are described in the manual.
2.2 Supply voltage

This device must be supplied with safety low voltage SELV (EN 60950) 24 V. The voltage
required for operation must be drawn from a separate power supply. This power supply must
satisfy the DIN IEC 61010 guidelines (safety guidelines for electrical measurement, control,
regulating, and laboratory equipment).
The supply voltage is transferred into the monitors by DC/DC converters and is galvanically
separated from the 24 V supply. When connecting the supply voltage note that the 24 V can be
touched, and consequently must be disconnected from the mains power, ensure that it is not
hazardous to the touch (VDE 0100 Part 410).
2.3 Radio interference, EMC immunity

The device is carefully shielded and tested to be technically immune to radio interference, and
it satisfies the standards in accordance with EN 50 081-1 and EN 50 082-2. When connected
to an external power supply you must ensure that this power supply likewise satisfies these
standards. Radio interference can occur when the monitor is switched together with other
peripheral devices that are not properly shielded against radio interference.
Safety Instructions Page 9
2.4 Owner's responsibility

If there is reason to suspect that hazard-free operation, and thus adequate machine protection
is no longer possible, then the device must be taken out of service and safeguarded from
unintentional operation. This is the case
- if the device shows visible damage

- if the device no longer works
- after any type of overload (e.g. storage, transport) that exceeds permissible limits.
If measurements or tests must be executed with the MMS 6000 monitors

during operation, or if the device must be replaced or taken out of service, then
ensure that machine protection is not impaired by these measures and that
the machine can be switched off by interrupting the electric circuits.
STOP Consequently prior to starting such work the machine protection must be
deactivated by the responsible specialized personnel.
After ending the work the machine protection must be immediately reactivated
by the responsible specialized personnel.
2.5 Instructions on ESD safety
The MMS 6000 monitors contain sensitive semiconductor elements. These

components can be damaged or destroyed when handling the monitors - e.g.
when changing jumper settings.
Consequently prior to handling the monitors suitable measures must be
undertaken (e.g. ESD bracelet) to prevent electrostatic discharges via the
STOP monitor electronics.
Electronic components should only be transported and stored in ESD safe
packaging.
There is a higher probability of electrostatic discharge occurring if there is dry
weather with relative humidity below 30%. In this case the monitors must be
handled with special care when performing maintenance and repair work.
Application and Setup Page 10
3 APPLICATION AND SETUP
3.1 Application
The two-channel shaft exentricity monitor MMS 6220 is a module of the MMS 6000 machine
monitoring system. The micro-processor controlled monitor is used in conjunction with two eddy
current measuring chains to measure and monitor the relative shaft vibration on all types of
turbines, compressors fans, gear units, etc.
The two channels of the monitor can be used in two operating modes via the configuration:
• shaft eccentricity measurement
• Radial clearance measurement minimum/maximum
A key signal must be present for measuring and calculating the measuring values. If there is no
key signal there is no measurement and no measuring value formation.
The measuring values can be output via a 0 ... 20mA / 4 ... 20mA current output per channel.
3.2 Structure
The MMS 6220 monitor is designed as a standard Euro format card (100 mm x 160 mm) and
has an anodized front panel that is 6 MW (app. 30 mm) wide. Depending on use position, the
monitors of the MMS 6000 system can be inserted in any standard 19” mounting rack, 3U (e.g.
IMR 011), as well as in other Intermas-compatible systems and enclosures. The electrical
connection is via a 48-pin connection strip. The Fig 1 shows the MMS 6220 monitor.

4.1.1 Power supply

→ Terminals: d2: UN +24V, b2: U- (0V/common), z2: UB +24V (redundant)
+24 V direct current is required to feed the monitors. Redundant feed is possible through two
diode uncoupled supply inputs.
4.1.2 RS 485 interface connection

→ Terminals: d4: A (RS485), b4: BP (Common), z4: B (RS485)
The RS 485 bus is used for configuration as well as for the connection to the master computer
and analysis systems, for example.
Communication works in accordance with the master/slave principle; the MMS 6000 monitors
are always switched as slave. A maximum of 31 devices are connected on one bus.
i
Additional information on setting the interfaces is provided in the Operating
Manual of the MMS 6910 configuration software.
RS 485 bus operation requires an electrical terminator on the first and last bus device. This
means that a 120 Ω resistor must be switched between the connections “A” and “B” for the
computer (i.e. interface converter), and for the (physical) last device on the bus. In addition, the
bus line “A” must be switched for the first or last device via a pull-up +5V resistor, and line “B”
must be switched to ground via a pull-down resistor for the first or last device.
This is done with jumpers that are on the controller board. The Fig 4 shows the position of the
jumpers.
Fig 4: Jumper position RS 485
To activate the bus terminator and to place lines “A” and “B” on the references, plug the jumpers
as shown in Fig. b). Fig. a). shows the jumper position for deactivated bus termination and open
references (delivery status).

For trouble-free operation of the RS 485 bus the lines ”A” and ”B” in one
monitor must be placed on their references (+5 V; ground), this is only
possible if the bus terminator jumper is also set in this monitor.

Alternatively the bus connection also be made with a 120 Ω resistor soldered
i or crimped on the last monitor slot (between d4 and z4). This offers that
advantage that the bus connection cannot get lost inadvertently when
replacing the monitor.
4.1.3 Connecting eddy current measuring chains

The monitor has two differential mode voltage amplifiers - measurement inputs for eddy current
sensors. They are adjusted to sensors of the epro PR 642x type series with the associated
converter CON 0xx. However measuring chains from other manufacturers that work the same
way and with appropriate data can also be used.
Converter feed:
→ Terminals: Channel 1: b6: Supply1- (sensor), z6: Supply1+ (sensor)

Channel 2: b8: Supply2- (sensor), d6: Supply2+ (sensor)
A voltage output with -26.75V DC is available for the converter feed for each channel. The
voltage outputs are galvanically separated from the feed voltage, as well as from the other
monitor wiring.
i
The 26.75V feed voltage can be used for converters whose feed voltage is
specified at nominal -24V. Measurement results are not influenced by the
higher feed voltage.

Channel 2: d8: AIN2- (Input), d10: AIN2+ (Input)
b10: connection of the inner shielding,
GND (connected in the monitor with ⊥)
The Fig 7 shows the connection of converters on the monitor. To comply with the specifications
relative to EMC immunity and transmission behavior, the converters must be connected to the
monitor with paired, twisted, double-shielded sensor cables. For cable lengths up to 400 m we
recommend using type LiYCY-CY 2x2x0.25 mm2 cables. For cable lengths in excess of 400
m you must use type LiYCY-CY cable with greater core cross-sections.
The inner shielding of the sensor cable should be routed separately and placed on protective
earth. The outer shielding of the cable should be on protective earth, cabinet ground, or
enclosure ground.
i
The shielding connection shown in Fig 7 represents one possibility.
Connection of the shielding must be in accordance with the respective local
shielding/ grounding concept.
i
Additional information concerning the converter and inherently safe
installation is available in the User Instructions for the respective converter.
When connecting measuring chains that will be operated in areas were

explosion hazards exist, only signal converters with ATEX certificate can be
STOP used (e.g. epro converter CON 011 ... CON 041).
We recommend laying lines AIN+ and AIN- (channel 1 and channel 2) on system ground. To
do this connect terminals z10, z6, d10 and d6 with terminal b10.

4.1.4 Scaled DC- outputs

→ Terminals: z12: NGL1 (scaled dc-output), b12: ⊥, d12: NGL2 (scaled dc-output)
The standardized equivalence outputs NGL1 and NGL2 supply DC- voltage for channel 1 and
channel 2 in the range 0 … +10 V, that is proportional to the sensor - measurement object
distance. The linear work range of the sensor used, as entered at configuration, determines the
measuring range. The diagram in Fig 8 shows the relationship between the DC- voltage on the
NGL output and the converter output voltage.

4.1.5 Voltage outputs measuring value

→ Terminals: d14: EO1 (voltage output1), d16: EO2 (voltage output2)
Outputs EO1 and EO2 supply an output voltage of 0… +10 V proportional to the configured
single-channel measured values. EO1 is assigned to channel 1 and EO2 is assigned to channel
2. The single-channel measured values are also output via these outputs for calculated
measuring values. The diagram in Fig 9 shows the relationship between the DC- voltage on the
EO output and the single-channel measured value for a measuring range of 200 μm.

If the outputs are used as measuring value voltage outputs for external display
or processing, then bear in mind that they have 8-bit resolution (resolution
measuring value current: 16-bit).
4.1.6 Voltage inputs measuring value

→ Terminals: b14: EI1 (voltage input1), b16: EI2 (voltage input2)
The voltage inputs EI1 and EI2 for 0 ... +10 V measuring value voltage is used for combining with
voltage outputs EO from equivalent channels. This function is not provided for the MMS 6220
shaft eccentricity monitor.
4.1.7 Dynamic outputs

→ Terminals: z14: AC1 (sensor raw signal1), z16: AC2 (sensor raw signall2)
The two dynamic outputs AC1 and AC2 supply the dynamic portion of the measurement signal
in the mode ”Two-channel Spp”. The direct voltage portion is separated from the analog input
signal so that an unadulterated dynamic signal is available in the frequency range of 0.1 …
16 kHz for frequency analysis e.g. with an analysis system. The output voltage of 0 ... 20 Vss
corresponds to the configured measuring value measuring range.
The outputs are unusable in the mode ”Distance min/max”.
With the J2 jumpers the raw sensor signal that is applied to the SMB sockets on the front panel
can be switched over to these terminals. The output voltage range is identical to the voltage
range of the SMB front sockets (0... -24 V).
4.1.8 Signal input Limit Value Boost

→ Terminals: d18: GWM (limit value)
The limit value boost configured in the “Basis” tab is activated via this input. Signal status:
LOW (0 V/Common) → Limit Value Boost active

HIGH (+24 V) → Limit Value Boost not active
open → Limit Value Boost not active
4.1.9 measuring value outputs (current outputs)

→ Terminals: Channel 1: b18: I1- (current output common), z18: I1+ (current output CH1)
Channel 2: b20: I2- (current output common), z20: I2+ (current output CH2)
The two measuring value outputs supply load-independent currents depending on the
configuration in the range of 0 ... 20 mA or 4 ... 20 mA. The Fig 10 shows the current output
independent of the configured measuring range (250 microns).

4.1.10 Signal input key

→ Terminals: d22: KEY-N (key signal input)
The rotary direction reference signal can be fed in on this input. For example from the MMS 6312
speed monitor. Information concerning the required the signal level is in the ”Technical data”
section.
4.1.11 Signal input External Disable / Alarm Stop

→ Terminals: z22: ES (external lock)
The signal status on this input activates or deactivates alarm block:

LOW (0 V/Common) → Alarm block active

HIGH (+24 V) → Alarm block via this input not active*
open → Alarm block via this input not active*
*Events such as module error, measuring chain malfunctions, etc. can block alarms – even if this
input is on HIGH.
When activating the alarm block the alarms are blocked immediately – regardless of whether
alarm block (Limit suppression active, tab “Basis”) is activated in the configuration.
Effects of alarm blocking:
• Alarm outputs are switched to base setting

• Alarm LEDs (front panel) are switched off
• Channel Clear LEDs (front panel) are switched off
• Channel Clear outputs are opened, e.g. closed-circuit currents are interrupted.
• at activated current suppression (4 ... 20 mA) the current output is reset to 0 mA.
If the alarm block is deactivated then the monitor returns to normal measurement mode after a
settling time (approximately 120 seconds).
If ”External Disable / Alarm Stop” is activated then there is no machine

STOP protection.
4.1.12 Switchover work mode / closed-circuit current mode

Terminals: d24: SC-A (oper. principle alert), z24: SC-D (oper. principle danger)
The signal status on these inputs governs the work principle of the alarm outputs:
d24 LOW (0 V/Common) → Alert in the closed-circuit current principle

HIGH (+24 V) → Alert in the open-circuit principle
open → Alert in the open-circuit principle
z24 LOW (0 V/Common) → Danger in closed-circuit current mode

HIGH (+24 V) → Danger in the open-circuit mode
open → Danger in the open-circuit mode
Open-circuit mode: With activated alarm the collector emitter switch is conductive and
an externally connected relay is activated.
Closed-circuit mode With activated alarm the collector emitter switch is disabled and
an externally connected relay is deactivated.
In closed-circuit current mode false alarms are generated in the event of feed
voltage failure or if the monitor is pulled out.

If multiple outputs are switched in series then note that on each
collector-emitter output a residual voltage of max. 1.5V drops off.
4.2 Output – raw sensor signal
4.2.1 SMB sockets

The raw sensor signal can be tapped on the two front panel SMB sockets. The SMB socket
“Sensor signal 1” is assigned to channel 1 and the socket “Sensor signal 2” is assigned to
channel 2. The raw sensor signal is the unfiltered, in-phase output signal of the converter with
AC and DC portion. In order to prevent reactions on the measurement signal, the signal is
uncoupled and it is short-circuit proof. The reference point of the SMB sockets internally is on
z6: Supply1+ (channel 1) and d6: Supply2+ (channel 2). If these terminals are connected to
terminal b10, as described in section 4.1.3, then the reference point is on system ground (GND).
The raw sensor signal can be used for diagnostic purposes and for balance tasks.
If the SMB sockets are galvanically connected with the system ground, the
following points must be strictly heeded:
When operating the monitor in systems with floating ground, faults can occur
STOP when connecting measuring devices to the monitor.
In plants of this type it is strongly recommended that you operate the
measuring devices on the mains power via appropriate isolating amplifiers,
or that you use battery-powered devices.
4.2.2 Slot terminals z14 and z16

The raw sensor signal applied to the front panel SMB sockets can be switched over with the J2
jumpers on terminals z14: channel 1 and z16: channel 2 of the connection strip. As delivered
the J2 jumpers are set so that in the ”Two-channel Spp” mode the dynamic portion of the raw
sensor signal is applied to terminals z14 and z16. The controller board must be removed in order
to switch the signal on the connection strip. The following points describe the procedure:
The reference point for the raw sensor signal from channel 1 is connection
strip terminal z6: Supply 1+ and for the raw sensor signal from channel 2, it
! is terminal d6: Supply 2+. If these terminals are connected to terminal b10, as
described in section 4.1.3, then the reference point is on system ground
(GND). In this case terminals b22: GND and b4: GND can be used as
reference point.
When working on the monitor ensure that there is adequate protection against
electrostatic discharges. For example wear an ESD- bracelet to prevent
STOP electrostatic discharges via the monitor electronics.
1. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the four Phillips head screws identified with the arrows
in Fig 13.
Fig 13: Position of the screws
2. Carefully pull the controller board off of the main board without tilting it. The position of the
J2 jumpers on the main bard is identified with a white frame in Fig 14.
Fig 14: Position of the J2 jumpers
3. To switch the raw sensor signal to terminals z14 and z 16 place the jumpers as shown in b).
If the jumpers are set as shown in a) then the dynamic portion of the sensor signal is applied
on terminals z14 and z16.

4. Place the controller board back on the main board and secure it with the four screws. Now
the raw sensor signal is on the connection strip.
The raw sensor signal that is switched on the connection strip via the jumpers
is not galvanically separated from the SMB sockets on the front panel.
STOP Malfunctions (e.g. short-circuit, feed-in of a signal, etc.) on the SMB sockets
have an influence on the raw sensor signal that is applied on terminals z14
and z16.
1. Check the slot wiring prior to installing the monitor.
2. Push the MMS 6220 monitor into the prepared slot and press it with light pressure into the
plug connector.
3. Hand tighten the two anchoring screws on the front panel to secure the monitor.
i
When installing or deinstalling MMS 6000 monitors it is not necessary to
switch off the supply voltage. The monitors can be inserted, and pulled out of
the slot under voltage.
If measurements or tests must be executed with the MMS 6000 monitors

during operation, or if the device must be replaced or taken out of service, then
ensure that machine protection is not impaired by these measures and that
the machine can be switched off by interrupting the electric circuits.
STOP Consequently prior to starting such work the machine protection must be
deactivated by the responsible specialized personnel.
After ending work the machine protection must be immediately reactivated by
the responsible specialized personnel.
4.3 Adjusting the measuring chains

The measuring chains are adjusted via the converter's output signal. A precise description of
the procedure is provided in the respective operating manual for the converter, and in the
section: 8 ”Description of the applications”.
4.4 Commissioning
If the customer did not order a setting in accordance with his specifications then the monitor will
only be ready for operation under certain limited conditions. Consequently monitor configuration
is required when commissioning. Predefined configurations in the various monitor modes are
available to simplify the configuration.
Configuration Page 24
5 CONFIGURATION
This chapter describes the configuration of the MMS 6220 monitor using the MMS 6910
configuration program.
In operation the monitor works autonomously and does not require a connection to a computer.
The monitor is configured via a computer that is connected via the mini DIN diode socket on the
RS 232 interface, or via the RS 485 bus in the device.
The configuration program, as well as the MMS 6000 system manual, are included on a
CD-ROM that is part of the MMS ParaKit (order no. 9510-00027). In addition this operating kit
also includes the following components:
• Interface cable for the connection to the RS 232 configuration interface
• Two measurement cables for measuring the sensor signals
• Plug connector 9-pin to 25-pin (plug / socket)
5.1 Configuration procedure

For monitor operation it is necessary to set parameters and load them into the monitor using the
MMS 6910 configuration software. This section describes parameter entry with the configuration
software.
All general functions of the configuration software, such as user
i administration, are described in the MMS 6910 Operating Manual. The

functions described in this Operating Manual refer to the MMS 6220 monitor
and are necessary for the monitor configuration.
The configuration software must have been loaded on the computer in order to enter
pa-rameters. Instructions for installing the software are included in the product information
which comes with the software. The following steps must be executed:
• Switch on the monitor power supply
• Connect the interface cable to computer and monitor
• Start the configuration software
• Select the interface on the computer
• Establish communication between computer and monitor
• Scan the connected monitors or manually select the monitor type
• Create the configuration (entering the parameters)
• Load the parameters into the monitor
After executing these steps the monitor is ready for operation.

5.2 Start the configuration software

Start the software by double clicking on the icon
and enter ID and password.
Four different access authorizations determine the extent to which the user is allowed to define
or change the configuration data.
• Access authorization DISPLAY only permits connection setup and online display.
• Access authorization OPERATOR permits complete setting of parameters for the monitor,
calling all displays, and sending all required commands.
• The SERVICE access authorization is only intended for trained personnel.
• The FACTORY access authorization is only intended for epro personnel.
When the software starts for the first time the access data for the OPERATOR authorization level
is:
ID: first
Password: user
When entering ID and password pay attention to upper case and lower case. Now to start
measurement operation the parameter set for monitor operation must be created and loaded
into the monitor.
5.3 Monitor selection and entry

After starting the configuration software you must select the monitor type for which the
parameter set will be created.
1. To open the “Choose module type” selection window, right click on the “MMS Configuration”
in the left field of the screen. A pop-up menu will appear. In this menu, left click on the “Add
Module” menu option → this opens the “Choose module type” selection window.
Fig 16: Menu option “Add Module”

2. All monitor types that can be configured with this software are listed as icons in the “Choose
module type” selection window. Left click on the icon for the MMS 6220 shaft exentricity
monitor and confirm the selection with the “OK” button.
i
If a monitor is already available in the tree structure then an additional monitor
cannot be added when operating via the RS 232 interface. Adding multiple
monitors is only possible when the operating via an RS 485 bus.
Fig 17: Window “Choose module type”
5.4 Selecting the monitor - Subtype

After the monitor type has been selected a window will open for selection of the monitor Subtype.
Fig 18: Window “Sub-type”
Open the selection list by clicking on the arrow at the far right in the line. The monitor mode is
determined via the Subtype selection. The following modes are available for selection:
6220 Two-Channel SPP
With this mode the measuring value is proportional to the exentricity of the shaft. The
exentricity of the shaft is the maximum amplitude of a shaft deflection (peak-peak value) in
the sensor direction during at least one shaft revolution. This is the same as the difference
between the greatest and least clearance between sensor and shaft surface. As opposed to
shaft vibration the measurement is also executed at very low speeds.
The parameters (measuring range, current output, limit values, etc.) are determined
separately for each channel. Each channel separately calculates its measuring value, which
is monitored for limit value excesses and measuring chain errors. The measuring values are
output via the current output that belongs to the respective channel.
6220 Distance Min/Max
In this mode during at least one shaft revolution the greatest and least clearance between a
freely selectable reference point (measuring range scope) and the shaft surface is measured
and output as Min-Max value. This mode is used to measure and monitor the radial shaft
position, in order to warn of rotor parts brushing against the housing.

5.5 Entering / Editing parameters

Use the “Edit” option in the “Configuration” menu, or click on the hammer icon in the toolbar, to
open a window with multiple tabs for entering parameters.
Number and designation of the tabs vary depending on the monitor sub-type
i selected.
For all numeric value entries the decimal separating character is written as
”point”. All units are permanently specified.
The tabs are all structured identically with the exception of the “Administration” tab.
1. Tab
2. Column Parameter: Name of the parameter
3. Column Value: Input fields, list fields, and check boxes for entering parameters
4. Column Unit: Display of the parameter unit
5. Column Permissible range: Range in which the parameter value must be located. For some
parameters there is a “Selection” button in this column, which opens a selection menu.
Fig 20: Tab structure
The following sections describe the specific tabs of the configuration window and the function
of the parameters contained in the tab. Sample configurations are available in the chapter 8
“Description of the applications” .
5.5.1 Tab “Administration”

The general data that apply for the monitor are displayed in the “Administration” tab.
Fig 21: Tab “Administration”
Display field “Monitor type”
The mode selected for this monitor type is displayed in this line. This entry cannot be changed
here.
Display field “Last change by”
The entry shows the name of the user who made the last changes to this configuration and saved
it in the monitor. This entry cannot be changed here.
Display field “Last change on”
The last changes to this configuration were made and saved in the monitor at the time – date
and time - displayed. This entry cannot be changed here.
Input field “Factory”
A designation for the factory where the monitor is implemented can be entered here. The
maximum text length is 30 characters.
Input field “Block”
A designation for the machine block where the monitor is implemented can be entered here. The
maximum text length is 30 characters.
5.5.2 Tab “Basic”

Parameters can be set for general monitor functions in the “Basic” tab. All functions set here refer
to the entire monitor. Settings that impact channels always refer to both channels.
Fig 22: Tab “Basis”
Check box “Limit multiplier active”
If this box is checked then the Limit multiplier active function is released. This function is switched
on or off via input d18.
For instance, Limit multiplier active can be used to increase the limit values for machine run-up
or run-down when running through speed critical limit values, to prevent switch-off.
Input field “Limit level multiplier”
The limit level multiplier increases the limit values of all alarms (alert and danger, channel 1 and
channel 2) by a factor that must be entered, as soon as the input d18 is set on LOW.
Limit valuelifted = Limit value * factor
Limit Value Boost is switched off if the input d18 is set to HIGH, or if it is open.
Check box “Limit suppression active”
Activate this function to suppress the limit values as soon as Channel Clear is no longer present.
This is the case if the input voltage of a channel exceeds the upper limit of the defined work range
plus 0.5 V, or if it does not attain the lower limit minus 0.5V. All other conditions (monitor
malfunction, service time, etc.) that could lead to suppression of alarms remain unaffected by
this parameter (see chapter 7 “Monitoring the monitor”).
i
”Limit suppressed active” means that the alarm outputs are in base setting (no
”alarm” status).
Limit suppression is triggered depending on the status of the associated channel for single
channel measurement and measuring value formation. If the measuring value is formed by
linking both channels and monitored for limit value excess, then only the fault message of both
channels causes limit value suppression.
Input fields “Temperature danger alarm” and “Temperature alert alarm”
Factory specified settings are input in the fields for Temperature alert alarm and Temperature
danger alarm. If the monitor's ambient temperature (as measured by an integrated temperature
sensor) exceeds the alert limit value, then the Channel Clear LEDs on the front of the monitor
will flash rapidly. If the danger limit value is exceeded, then this is evaluated as a monitor fault,
e.g. the Channel Clear LEDs go out and the alarms are suppressed (see chapter 7 “monitoring
the monitor”).
The pre-set limit values of 65 °C and 70 °C can be changed with the OPERATOR user
authorization.
If there are changes (increase in the pre-set limit values then there is a hazard
of incorrect measurements or component failure at higher temperatures.
STOP
Checkbox “Ex- protection on”
Activate this function if the connected sensor is mounted in a potentially explosive area and must
be operated via safety barriers. In this case the internal resistance of the safety barrier used must
then be entered in the “Channel” tab.
5.5.3 Tab “Channel”

Enter the channel parameters via the “Channel 1” and “Channel 2” tabs. The configurable
channel parameters depend on the selected mode (sub-type).
Fig 23: Tab ”Channel 1“ subtype ”Dual-channel Spp“

Fig 24: Tab ”Channel 1“ subtype ”Distance Min/Max”
Check box “Channel active”
Use this switch to activate or deactivate the channel. With deactivation the formation of
measuring values, limit value monitoring, and channel monitoring are switched off.

The Fig 29 shows a type PR 6423 sensor and a type CON 011 (-2 ... -18 V) converter as an
example of how the ”Tare value displacement” and ”Tare value voltage” parameters function.
The measuring range (0 μm) starts at -6 V converter output voltage.
If later it turns out that the values do not correspond to the true conditions then this situation can
be corrected through technical measurement methods. The prerequisite is that communication
must be established to the monitor and the monitor must be in measurement mode. The
following steps must be executed for this:
1. Adjust the distance between sensor and measurement object to a defined value (e.g. on
measuring range beginning at evaluation ”Minimal”).
2. Enter the appropriate reference value (e.g. 0 μm) in the input field, ”Tare value
displacement”.
3. Click on the ”Measure” button. The measured voltage value is entered in the ”Tare value
voltage” field.
4. Transfer the changes into the monitor.
Input fields “Initial value sensor voltage” and “End value sensor voltage”
The appropriate voltages are entered automatically in these fields when selecting the converter
type.
The converter output voltage range can also be entered directly at this point. The required values
are provided in the data sheet of the converter.
The limit values of the linear output voltage range also specify the OK threshold value. In other
words if the input voltage exceeds the lower limit value of the linear range minus 0.5 V, or if the
input voltage exceeds the upper limit value plus 0.5V, then a measuring chain fault (Channel
Clear is cancelled) is reported.
Input fields “Initial value sensor displacement” and “End value sensor displacement”
The appropriate measuring range is entered in these fields automatically when selecting the
sensor type.
The sensor measuring range can also be entered directly at this point. The required values are

If a barrier is used that is not in the list then the barrier data can be entered in the fields “Name”,
and “Resistance” in the right side of the window.

• Input field “Serial resistance”

Enter the serial resistance specified in the Ex barrier data sheet here.
All Ex barriers used must be approved in accordance with ATEX. Only Ex

barriers can be used that comply with all specified electrical limit values listed
STOP in the Ex approval of the sensor.
Fields in the “Selection safety barrier” window Fields in the “Channel” tab
Name → EX variant
Resistance → Burden resistor (Ex)
Input field “safety barrier”
In this field the appropriate series resistor is entered automatically when selecting the EX barrier
type.
The resistance value of the measuring circuit safety barrier can also be entered directly at this
point. The required value is provided in the data sheet of the safety barrier.
Input field “Mounting angle”
This parameter has no function for the MMS 6220 shaft exentricity monitor.
List field “Evaluation”
This input field is only available in the ”Distance min/max” mode. Set the type of measurement
here. With selection of the ”Minimum” evaluation the measuring value is proportional to the
lowest static and dynamical clearance - based on the measuring range beginning (measured
over at least one complete shaft revolution). For the evaluation ”Maximum” the measuring value
is proportional to the greatest clearance.
5.5.4 Tab “Data acquisition”

Use this tab to set general monitor function parameters for data acquisition. Data acquisition is
only relevant for recording the values for run-up / run-down in the online display.
Fig 32: Tab “Data acquisition”
Inpt field ”Standstill detection”
This is where an speed limit is entered at which the measurement and measuring value
formation will stop if this limit value is not attained. In this case the measuring value is set to zero
and limit value monitoring is suppressed. The lowest limit value that can be entered is 1.2 RPM.
Input field “Subspeed”
If the diagnostic system is activated (control box ”Support diagnostics”) then when exceeding
the entered Subspeed the recording of a run-up is started or if the value is not attained the
recording of a run-down is stopped.
Input field 'Normal speed” and ”Speed tolerance”
If the diagnostic system is activated then when exceeding the entered normal speed minus the
entered speed tolerance the recording of a run-up is ended, or if this limit is not attained, the
recording is stopped.
If the entered normal speed plus the entered speed tolerance is exceeded, then the measuring
value is set to zero and limit value monitoring is suppressed.
Input field “Over speed“
If the entered over speed is exceeded then the speed display in the online display is limited
(speed display ”88888”) otherwise the value is irrelevant for the MMS 6220 monitor.
Checkbox “Support diagnosis”
Use this switch to activate or deactivate the diagnostic system. If the check box is activated then
traverse or retract data are saved.
5.5.5 Tab “Output Channel”

Use this tab to set the alarm limits and the current outputs.
Fig 33: Tab ”Output channel”
Check box “Limit level supervision active”

Use this switch to activate limit value monitoring. If monitoring is deactivated then the alarm
outputs are switched to base setting.
Input field “Danger alarm”
Enter the limit value for the Danger alarm in this field. In the ”Two-channel SPP” mode the
effective direction of the danger alarm is ascending, i.e. if the measuring value exceeds the limit
value the alarm is triggered. In the ”Distance min/max” mode for channel evaluation ”maximum”
the effective direction is ascending, and for the channel evaluation ”minimum” it is descending
(measuring value does not reach the limit value).
Input field “Alert alarm”
Enter the limit value for the alert alarm in this field. In the ”Two-channel SPP” mode the effective
direction of the alert is ascending, i.e. if the measuring value exceeds the limit value then the alert
is triggered. In the ”Distance min/max” mode for channel evaluation ”maximum” the effective
direction is ascending, and for the channel evaluation ”minimum” it is descending (measuring
value does not reach the limit value).
For the ”Two-channel SPP” the limit for the alert is set lower than the limit for the danger alarm.
For the ”Distance min/max” mode the limit for the alert can also be set greater than the limit for
the danger alarm.
List field “Alarm hysteresis

The hysteresis can be set to a value of 0 ... 20 % of the measuring range. The hysteresis
determines how much the measuring value must drop below the limit value after a limit value
excess, in order to reset the alarm. The set value refers to the alert and danger alarm.
List field “Latching”
If the latching function is activated then the alarm will be switched to self-latching if there is a
limit value violation. The alarm will then only be reset via the configuration software if the limit
value violation is no longer present and if the comment “Reset Latch Channel 1” or “Reset Latch
Channel 2” are present in the “Commands” menu.
List field “Delay”
Use this list field to set the tripping delay of the alarms to 0 ... 5 seconds. This is the time between
detection of an alarm condition and switching the alarm output. The set value refers to the alert
and danger alarm.
List field “Current output time”
In order to avoid getting unsettled measured values for slowly rotating shafts, the measuring
value current can be settled with a 1 ... 10 second adjustable time constant (0 seconds = no
settling).
The time constant causes a slow change in the current at fast changes of the measuring value.
At a time constant of 10 seconds and sudden change of the measuring value from 100% to 0
% it takes approximately 10 seconds until the current has dropped by 63% (left diagram in the
Fig 34). The right diagram in the Fig 34 shows the change curve for a sudden change of the
measuring value from 0 to 100%. The change curve follows an e-function.

List field “Current output”
The current measuring value can be set to 0 ... 20 mA or 4 ... 20 mA.
Checkbox “Current suppression”
This switch activates suppression of current output in the event of a system error. If an error is
detected via the monitoring function and if Channel Clear switches off as a result, then the output
current is set to “0”. The prerequisite for this is that the current output range must be set to 4 ...
20 mA. For the range 0 ... 20 mA this parameter has no function.
Check box “Break point active”
Use this switch to activate the “Break point” function. This function divides the normal linear scale
from 0 ... 100 % of the measuring value current into two linear ranges with varying gradient. This
enables a magnifying glass function with which a range of the measuring value can be observed
with higher resolution (greater gradient of the curve). The breakpoint is defined with the two
following parameters.
Input field “Break point value”

Enter the value of the measuring value here.
Input field “Break point %-scale”
Use this value to specify which portion (%) of the current range corresponds to the measuring
value entered in the “Break point value” input field.
Example, with the breakpoint values “Break point value” = 120 μm and “Break point %-scale”
= 80%:

5.6 Sending and receiving configuration data

After ending the parameter entry, or after changing parameters it is always necessary to load
the parameter set from the computer's RAM into the monitor.
5.6.1 Connecting the monitor to the computer

Ensure that the monitor's supply voltage is switched on. The monitor can only be configured if the
supply voltage is switched on.
Connect the MMS 6220 monitor to your computer with the interface cable supplied in the
operating kit. Plug the 9-pin Sub-D connector of the interface cable into a serial interface (COM
port) and plug the mini DIN diode connector of the cable into the RS 232 socket of the monitor.
The RS 232 configuration interface is galvanically connected to the system

ground. Consequently the following points must be strictly heeded:
When operating the monitor in systems with floating ground, faults can occur
STOP when connecting the configuration computer with the monitor.
In these types of systems it is strongly recommended that you not operate the
laptop with mains power, but rather that you execute the configuration with the
laptop in battery-powered operation.

7 MONITORING THE MONITOR

The chapter describes the monitoring the monitor function and the messages that are output by
the monitor.
The status monitoring (monitoring the monitor) verifies functionality of the monitor and of the
connected measuring chains. It is designed to ensure that signalization occurs if measured va‐
lues are not trouble-free and to ensure disabling of alarms if necessary. Status signalization oc‐
curs in four ways:
• Through the Channel Clear LEDs on the front panel.
• Through the Channel Clear outputs 1 and 2
• Via the online display of the MMS 6910 configuration software.
• By setting the respective current output to 0mA (only for current output 4 ... 20mA with
current suppression)
Functional disturbances are divided into two groups. Disturbances that affect the monitor are
allocated to the group of monitor errors. Measuring chain disturbances are allocated to the group
of channel errors.
Monitor errors include:
• Firmware errors
• System feed errors
• Exceeding the temperature monitoring danger limit
Channel errors include:
• Measuring chain errors
• Overload
Channel monitoring
The input direct voltage of the channel is monitored. If the input voltage exceeds the upper value
specified in the configuration (Tab “Channel” → Parameters “End value Sensor voltage”) of the
sensor work range by +0.5V, or if it falls below the lower value (Tab “Channel” → Parameter “Ini‐
tial value sensor voltage” by -0.5V, then a channel error message will be generated. If the input
voltage returns to the work range then after a wait time (approximately 120 seconds) the channel
error message will be withdrawn.

Overload monitoring
If the input stage is overloaded there will be an overflow. If the amplitude of the dynamic signal
(AC portion of the signal) exceeds the input range defined in the configuration (tab “Channel”
→ parameter “Measuring range”) by approximately 1% then an overload message will be output.
If the amplitude of the dynamic signal returns to the work range then after a wait time (approxima‐
tely 120 seconds) the overload message will be withdrawn.

If all LEDs are flashing (both Channel Clear and all alarm LEDs) in alternation,
then the monitor has lost its calibration or it has a hardware error and must
be calibrated or repaired in the factory.
Description of the applications Page 57
8 DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLICATIONS
8.1 Mode “6220 Dual-channel Spp”
8.1.1 Dual-channel measuring function
Both channels work independent of each other in this mode. The parameters (measuring range,
current output, limit values, etc.) are determined separately for each channel. Each channel
calculates its measuring value separately (in peak-peak evaluation) that are monitored for limit
value excesses and measuring chain errors. The measuring values are output via the current
output that belongs to the respective channel. The sensors do not have to be of the same type.
8.1.2 Sample Dual-channel configuration
This sample describes the configuration of the MMS 6220 shaft exentricity monitor for ”two-
channel Spp” mode including sensor adjustment. The parameters pre-set through the subtype
selection serves as the basis.
Hardware:
• Sensor type channel 1 and channel 2: PR 6423
• Converter channel 1 and channel 2: CON 011 -2 ... -18V
Key data of the configuration:
• Current output range channel 1: 4 ... 20 mA with current suppression

• Measuring range channel 1: 200 μm
• Alert alarm channel 1: 90 μm
• Danger alarm channel 1: 100 μm
i
1. Adjusting the sensors

• Switch-on the supply voltage of the monitor. The measuring chains are fed via the monitor.
• Measure the output voltage of the measuring chain on the terminals OUT and ⊥ (GND) with
a DC voltmeter on the converter.
• Adjust the distance between sensor and measurement object (shaft) so that the measured
converter output voltage is in the middle of the voltage range (-2 ... -18 V) → -10 V.
Repeat the three steps for the second channel.

8.2 Mode “6220 Distance min/max”
8.2.1 Function of the Distance measurement
Both channels work independent of each other in this mode. The parameters (measuring range,
current output, limit values, etc.) are determined separately for each channel. Each channel
calculates its measuring value separately (in ”Minimum” or ”Maximum” evaluation) that are
monitored for limit value excesses and measuring chain errors. The measuring values are output
via the current output that belongs to the respective channel.
8.2.2 Measuring range
Use the parameters ”Tare value displacement” and ”Tare value voltage” to specify the measuring
range. The measuring range beginning is defined as the lowest clearance from the sensor to the
measurement object for the measuring range.
For channel evaluation ”Minimum” and a measuring range of 500 μm enter 0 μm for the
parameter ”Tare value displacement, and enter the value -6 V for the parameter ”Tare value
voltage” -6 V.
For channel evaluation ”Maximum” and a measuring range of 500 μm enter 500 μm for the
parameter ”Tare value displacement, and enter the value -14 V for the parameter ”Tare value
voltage” -6 V.

Function check Page 66
9 FUNCTION CHECK
This section describes verification of the monitor channels. The signal path of the measurement
chain is checked via the display until current output. The current outputs and the measuring va‐
lue displays depend on the channel configuration. You will need a multimeter for the verification.
Inform the responsible specialized personnel prior to starting work and have
the machine protection deactivated if necessary.
STOP After ending the work the machine protection must be immediately reactivated
In case of error status information can be queried with the Online view. Channel and monitor
errors are displayed in the “Details” window.
1. Use a DC voltmeter to measure the converter output voltage on terminals OUT and ⊥ (GND)
to check the measurement chain (sensor and converter). On the -24 V and ⊥ (GND) termi‐
nals you can measure the converter's supply voltage (app. –26V DC).
The following table shows the DC values with an output voltage of –2 ... -18 V, and their possible
cause and meaning.
Converter output voltage Meaning / error

-18 ... -22 V Distance: Sensor ↔ measurement object too large
-2 ... -18 V Measurement chain OK
-10 V Middle of the output voltage range → measurement chain OK
-1 ... -2 V Distance: Sensor ↔ measurement object too small
Sensor damaged, cable break, open plug connections
0 ... -1 V Converter is defective
No supply voltage
2. Verification of the display
i
The following formulas and examples are based on sinus-shaped vibrations.
With real vibration signals the results (calculated measuring values) can
deviate from the actual measured values.
Mode ”Dual-channel Spp”
Use a DC voltmeter to measure the static signal portion on terminals OUT and ⊥ (GND) to check
the display and the dynamic signal portion (Ueff). The measuring value can be determined from
this value and compared with the display, by using the following formulas.
U eff * 2 * 2
Measuring values =
Sensitivity
Example:
With Ueff = 279 mV and sensitivity = 8 mV/μm.
280mV * 2 * 2
Measuring values = Measuring values = 100m m

Mode Distance min/max
Use an AC voltmeter to measure the dynamic signal portion (Ueff) on converter terminals OUT
and ⊥ (GND), and use a DC voltmeter to measure the static signal portion (U) to check the dis‐
play and the current output. The measuring value can be determined from this value and com‐
pared with the display, by using the following formulas.
Evaluation ”Minimum”
(U f . s.d . − U ) − U eff * 2
Measuring values Minimal =
Sensitivity
Example:
With Ueff = 203 mV; U = -9 V, UMeasuring range beginning = -6 V, sensitivity = 8 mV/μm
(− 6000mV − (− 9000mV ) − 203mV * 2

Measuring values =

Example:
With Ueff = 208 mV; U = -11 V, UMeasuring range beginning = -10 V, sensitivity = 8 mV/μm
(− 10000mV − (− 11000 mV )) + 208mV * 2

Measuring values =

Measuring values 161m m
Since the formulas and examples are based on sinus-shaped vibrations,

deviations can occur between the calculated and the displayed nominal
STOP values.
The calculated measuring value must approximately agree with the displayed
measuring values.
3. To check the output current measure with a DC ampere meter on terminals z18: I1+ and b18:
I1- the output current for current output 1 and on terminals z20: I2+ and b20: I2- for current
output 2. The output current must correspond to the displayed measuring value as part of
the channel configuration.
Example:
With current output range: 4 ... 20 mA and measuring range 200 μm
Display Output current
100 μm 12 mA
Replacing a monitor Page 69
10 REPLACING A MONITOR
If the monitor must be replaced with a new monitor e.g. due to a defect, then the following steps
must be executed:
Inform the responsible specialized personnel prior to starting work and have
the machine protection deactivated if necessary.
STOP After ending the work the machine protection must be immediately reactivated
1. Save the monitor configuration.
• Connect the monitor to a PC/laptop via the RS 232 interface
• Start the MMS 6910 configuration software
• Establish the connection to the monitor → click on the magnifying glass icon in the toolbar.
• Read the configuration from the monitor → Click on the “Receive configuration” icon in
the toolbar.
The configuration is now in the computer's RAM and can be saved if needed. Do not end the
running MMS 6910 configuration program. Remove the interface cable.
2. Remove the anchoring screws and pull the monitor out of the slot.
3. Set the jumpers for the RS 485 interface and the raw sensor signal of the new monitor to
match the jumper settings of the old monitor.
4. Push the new monitor into the slot and press it with light pressure into the plug connector.
Lightly hand tighten the two anchoring screws.
5. Now the configuration can be loaded from the RAM of the PC/laptop into the new monitor.
• Connect the monitor to the PC/laptop via the RS 232 interface.
• Establish the connection to the monitor → click on the chain icon in the toolbar.
• Write the configuration into the new monitor → Click on the “Send configuration” icon in
the toolbar.
After a wait time of approximately 120 seconds the monitor is again in normal measurement
operation. Remove the interface cable and end the configuration program.
If it is not possible to read out the configuration, due to a defect, then the configuration must either
be loaded into the new monitor from an existing file, or a new configuration must be created.
FAQ – Frequently asked Questions Page 70
11 FAQ – FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
→ Can I operate measurement chains and sensors supplied by other manufacturers

with MMS 6000 monitors?
Answer:
MMS 6000 monitors are basically suitable for connecting measurement chains and sensors
from other manufactures. However it must be ensured that the electrical characteristics of the
sensors agree with the requirements of the monitors. Due to the open configuration you can
individually adapt required operating parameters, such as measuring ranges, sensitivities,
scales, etc. to any measurement chains and sensors using the MMS 6910 configuration
software.
If in doubt contact epro GmbH and request a release.
→ How can I verify whether connected measurement chains / sensors are intact and are
functioning properly?
Answer:
First check the Channel Clear LEDs and the status flags (sections “Visualization” and
“Monitoring the monitor”).
The function of a measurement chain can also be checked via the SMB sockets on the front
panel. These sockets show the input signal of the monitor with dynamic and static portion.
Additional information in this regard is in the section “Function check”. If there is no signal to
measure, then check the signals and the supply current from converters or load amplifiers.
→ Which cables are recommended for connecting the sensors / measurement chains,
and how is the cable shielding connected?
Answer:
To comply with the specifications relative to EMC immunity and transmission behavior the signal
converters must be connected to the monitor with paired, twisted, double shielded cables.
Cable length to 400 m: LiYCY–CY 2 x 2 x 0.25 mm2

Conductor resistance max. 75 Ω/km
Capacity approximately 120 pF/m (core/core)
See the manuals provided by the manufacturers of the respective converters for additional
instructions regarding the connection.
We recommend connecting the exterior cable shielding to the protective earth of the cabinet and
the interior shielding to the shielding ground (see connection diagrams).
FAQ – Frequently asked Questions Page 71
→ How can I verify that the monitor is ready for operation?

Answer:
The Channel Clear LEDs on the front panel of the monitor signalize the monitor status. If the
LEDs are illuminated green then the monitor is functioning properly. Additional informations in
this regard are in the section “Monitoring the monitor”.
→ Communication cannot be established between computer and MMS 6000 monitor.

When switching on the online display the measured values are displayed in red.
Answer:
Correct communication between computer and monitor requires the correct setting of the
interface parameters on both sides. The interface is permanently set in the monitor. Check the
settings in the configuration software. In the menu “Extras” → “Settings” you can check the
settings of the interface and make changes as needed in the “Coupling” tab (see section 5.6.2).
Another cause of error could be defective cabling between monitor and computer.
→ Can a new data set be loaded into the monitor without affecting operation?
Answer:
There is no machine protection when sending the parameters. The alarm

outputs are switched in base position, the current outputs
STOP (4 ... 20 mA with current suppression) are set to 0 mA and the Channel Clear
outputs are opened.
→ What should I look for when checking MMS monitors?

Answer:
Always check whether the monitor outputs are switched to trigger, prior to
starting work (parameter: ”Limit level supervision active”) - if yes then prior
STOP to starting work machine triggering must be deactivated. This is easiest to
check using the configuration screen (tab ”Output Channel” - parameter
”Limit level supervision active”).
In the online display information can be shown on the screen that enables you to draw
conclusions about the actual operating status. Firmware version and serial number can also be
displayed here.

Glossary Page 82
14 GLOSSARY
Work range (WR): The work range is within the measuring range and can equal the
measuring range, however it cannot exceed it.
Work range ≤ measuring range
Sensitivity (SE): Change of the sensor / measuring chain output voltage when the
physical value changes (e.g. distance [mm]) depending on sensor
type. [V/mm]
Free space (FS): The measurement surface of the eddy current sensor extended
by 45°
Gap (GA): Basic gap – distance between measurement object and sensor
face that should not be exceeded for mechanical protection of the
sensor and to avoid measurement errors.
Measuring value (MV) Is determined from the measurement value and is always based
on the set work range.
Measuring range (MR): Physical measuring range of the sensor.
Measurement : Is determined by the diameter of the sensor head (eddy

surface (MS) current sensor).
Measurement value (MV): Physical measurement value e.g. distance sensor –

measurement object.
Measurement signal (MS): Electrical signal on the input of the measurement amplifier
proportional to the measured value
Sensor path (SP): Measurement distance that is captured by the sensor. For cone
measurements, due to the cone angle often this is greater than the
measuring range of the sensor.
Effective principle? The output is disabled in good status (actual value in the
open-circuit: permissible range) and conducts if there is a message
Effective principle? The output is conductive in good status (actual value in the
closed-circuit current: permissible range) and disabled if there is a message.
