Sensor Description
The H6 Flex™ inclinometer provides highly accurate, dual axis inclination over a range of 180°. These sensors
incorporate MEMS accelerometers referenced to gravity with integrated temperature compensation over the
full industrial operating range of -40° to +85°C for absolute accuracy. They have both digital RS485 and analog
outputs. Both outputs are linear with respect to the input angle directly.
The digital RS485 output uses two-wire, half duplex communication, along with a Rieker specific protocol. This
protocol can be used to measure the angle of both axes, as well as configure the various digital and analog
parameters of the sensor.
The H6 provides two continuous, fully configurable, analog outputs. These outputs can be individually set to
current, voltage or open collector switch modes. Each analog output can be mapped to either axis.
The voltage output can be set to any value between 0V and 10V and to any angle range between 180°. The
current output can be set to any value between 0mA and 24mA and to any angle range between 180°. The
open collector switch output connects to signal common and can be set to trip above, below, between, or
outside any angle threshold or window range. Each open collector switch can drive up to 250mA (to be used
directly or to drive an external relay).
Also as an optional enhancement, the H6 has to ability to log angle data to a microSD card.

nalog Outputs
The H6 sensor comes with two, continuous, fully configurable, analog outputs. The analog outputs are directly
related to the input angle and will match the angle for any configured range. The factory default output
parameters for each analog output can be separately reconfigured at time of order, and/or can be fully
reconfigured by the end user when using the Dev Kit and Flexware™ Sensor Configurator (sold separately).
C UTION: The Flex™ series of sensors are manufactured to allow end user adjustments of the analog and digital
output parameters. Purchaser assumes the responsibility of ensuring that the settings are appropriate for their
specific application. IN NO EVENT WILL RIEKER BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES OF ANY
KIND.
Output xis Mapping
Each analog output can be individually mapped to correspond to either axis (X or Y). The default is that output
1 corresponds to the X-axis and output 2 corresponds to the Y-axis.
Output Types
Each analog output can be individually set to one of three analog output types: Current, Voltage, or Switch.
Current Output
An output configured for current has four configurable parameters: minimum current, maximum current,
minimum angle, and maximum angle. Min and max current each can be set to any range within 0mA and 24mA,
where max must be greater than min. The most common option is Min = 4mA and Max = 20mA.
Min angle is the angle corresponding to minimum current. Max angle is the angle corresponding to maximum
current. Min and max can each be set to any angle range within the entire ±180° operating range. A reversed
polarity is achieved by setting min angle greater than max angle.
Voltage Output
An output configured for voltage has four configurable parameters: minimum voltage, maximum voltage,
minimum angle, and maximum angle. Min and max voltage each can be set to any range within 0V and 10V,
where max must be greater than min. Two common option are Min = 0V & Max = 5V and Min = 0V & Max = 10V.
Min angle is the angle corresponding to minimum voltage. Max angle is the angle corresponding to maximum
voltage. Min and max can each be set to any angle range within the entire ±180° operating range. A reversed
polarity is achieved by setting min angle greater than max angle.
Switch Output
Each switch output is an open collector, NPN transistor switch. An output configured for switch has three
configurable parameters: trip mode, hysteresis, and delay in addition to either one or two trip angles.
Trip Mode
Trip mode explains the switch output trip conditions. It can be set to one of four configurations:
•Window Open: The output state is set to off/high between the adjustable Upper and Lower Trip

Angles and opposite (on/low) outside the window. (External relay will activate outside of window)
•Window Closed: The output state is set to on/low between the adjustable Upper and Lower Trip
Angles and opposite (off/high) outside the window. (External relay will activate inside of window)
•Threshold Open: The output state is set to off/high below the adjustable Trip Angle and opposite
(on/low) above or equal to the Trip Angle. (External relay will activate above the Trip Angle)
•Threshold Closed: The output state is set to on/low below the adjustable Trip Angle and opposite
(off/high) above or equal to the Trip Angle. (External relay will activate below the Trip Angle)
Hysteresis
The hysteresis value is the additional angle change needed for a switch output to return to the untripped state
from the tripped state. For window configurations, the Upper and Lower hysteresis values can be set
individually.
Delay
The delay value is the time (in tenths of seconds) that a trip condition must be met before the switch output is
actually set/unset to the new condition.
Sensitivity & Zero ngle Calculation (Voltage and Current Outputs Only)
The output sensitivity is calculated as follows:

For Symmetrical input ranges (i.e. 60°), the zero degree angle output is at the midpoint of the input analog

Wiring Diagrams and Connection Procedures
Wiring for a Current Output
1. Connect the power (PIN 1) to an 11-36VDC supply and the ground (PIN 2) to the supply
ground/common.
2. Connect the corresponding output (PIN 6 for output 1, PIN 7 for output 2) to the positive terminal of
the measurement device, and the sensor ground (PIN 2) to the negative terminal/common of the
measurement device.
NOTE: Current outputs will not work using chassis ground. Unit ground (PIN 2) must be used.
3. To convert the current to a voltage output select an appropriate load resistor (Rsense) based on the
equation defined in Table 4: H6 Current Sense
T BLE 4: H6 CURRENT SENSE
R
sense
is dependent upon supply voltage and cable/wire
resistance. Ensure the following equation is met:

Wiring for a Switch Output
1. Connect the power (PIN 1) to an 11-36VDC supply and the ground (PIN 2) to the supply
ground/common.
a. For direct switching, connect the corresponding output (PIN 6 for output 1, PIN 7 for output 2) to
both the positive terminal of the measurement device and power, and the sensor ground (PIN 2)
to the negative terminal/common of the measurement device.
b. For a relay, connect the corresponding output (PIN 6 for output 1, PIN 7 for output 2) to one side
of the relay coil and connect the other side of the relay coil to power.
