1.2 Definitions
If not explicitly stated otherwise, decimal values are given as figures without an extension (e.
g. 1234), binary values are marked after the figure with a "b" (e. g. 1011b), hexadecimal
values with an "h" (e. g. 280h).
1.3 Intended use
Unless otherwise described, normal operation of the system with unchanged factory setting is
assumed for the further description of functions.

Display and control elements
AP10 Date: 16.05.2022 Art. No. 90302 Mod. status 102/22 Page 6 of 42
The present device is an absolute position indicator with integrated IO-Link interface and a
hollow shaft for direct shaft mounting. Indicators, control buttons and interface are only
active with external power supply. The sensor of measurement encoder works magnetically
incrementally. Without an external power supply, encoder changes are recorded with battery
support. The status of the replaceable battery is monitored. A volatile TargetValue can be
displayed below the ActualValue via the backlit two-line LC display A direction display
(indicator) is displayed if there is a deviation between the actual value and the target window
(target value including TargetWindow parameter). The arrow direction indicates in which
direction the shaft must be rotated to reach the target window. In addition, the position
status of two two-color LEDs (green and red) is displayed. Device malfunctions or inadmissible
operating conditions are displayed.
The buttons can be used to select various functions and to adapt the device parameters of the
application stored in non-volatile memory. The actual value can be queried via the interface,
the target value can be changed and all device parameters can be adjusted.
1.4 Switching on the operating voltage
The AP10 will be initialized after switching on the supply voltage. A system and display test is
executed during initialization, the LEDs are lighted consecutively and the parameters are
loaded from the non-volatile memory into the RAM of the controller.
At first use, the default values are used during initialization. After the return of the external
power supply or software reset (warm start), the AP10 works with the last saved parameters.
If no fault has been detected, the AP10 starts normal operation and can communicate with an
IO-Link Master.
2Display and control elements
The position indicator has a two-line display with special characters and three control keys.
The actuator can be configured and controlled via the keys.
Two LEDs (LED1, LED2) serve for monitoring positioning.

2.1 LCD display
The display range is limited to -199999 … 999999. Values outside this
range are displayed with "FULL".
When the operating voltage is applied, the actual value (absolute position value, ActualValue)
is displayed in the first line. If there is no valid target value, " --- " appears in the second
line. If a target value is declared valid by means of the control bit in the process data (see e.
g. bc09_TargetValueActive), this is displayed in the 2nd line. The values displayed are
determined by the operating mode.
Direction indicators (arrows) support positioning.
The battery symbol is shown with a critical or insufficient battery status. If battery
voltage drops to a critical value, the battery symbol on the display will flash. If it falls below
the minimum value, the symbol will glow permanently.
With incremental measurement function activated, the incremental measurement symbol
is shown.
This is signaled in red letters in the event of a fault.
Fig. 2: Two-line 14 segment LCD display
2.1.1 Extended display range
Values up to -199999 can be displayed by means of the ControlWords (see
bc03_DisplayRange). If the relevant bit has been set and the value to be displayed is between
-199999 and -999999, then the negative sign and the digit of the highest order will flash
alternately. If the value range drops below -999999, "FULL" will be displayed.
2.2 LED display
2.2.1 Device status
A test sequence is executed on these LEDs during initialization.
In its basic state (factory setting) the LED display has different meanings depending on the
operating mode (see chapter 3.1).
In order for LED1 or LED2 to be controlled via the ControlWord, this function of the LEDs must
be activated by means of parameters (see chapter 3.1.1.3, 3.1.2.1, 4.4 and 5.1).

2.3 Control keys
Pressing the Incremental button switches the increment function or a relative
measurement on or off.
Pressing the Calibration button starts the calibration and acknowledges an existing fault.
In the "Alphanumeric display" operating mode, the receipt of a target value is acknowledged
by this action.
Pressing the Configuration button starts the parameterization.
See also chapter 3.3.1 and Fig. 1.
2.3.1 Key lock and enable time
The key access to the chain dimension function and calibration can be generally blocked with
the parameters KeyCalibration and KeyIncremental (see chapter 4.5.2). The time during which
the button must be pressed until you can enter the menu can be set in the Options menu.
Access via keys to the changeable device parameters can only be obtained after entering the
PIN. This can be defined using the parameter PINChange (see chapter 4.5.6).

3.1.1 Absolute position operating mode
The measured absolute position value is calculated depending on the parameters Resolution,
DisplayDivisor and DecimalPlaces and displayed as actual value. The actual value (ActualValue)
of higher-level control can be provided via the interface and a target value can be set as a
default. The target value must be set to valid in the ControlWord (bc09_TargetValueActive).
3.1.1.1 Positioning
Target window:
A target window is formed to be able to define a tolerance range.
Target window = TargetValue ± TargetWindow

Functional Description
AP10 Date: 16.05.2022 Art. No. 90302 Mod. status 102/22 Page 9 of 42
Example Position monitoring:
TargetWindow = 5
TargetValue = 100
Fig. 3: Positioning monitoring with TargetWindow
Directional arrows:
To assist in positioning, direction arrows are displayed in the display as long as the current
actual value is outside the valid target window. The arrow direction indicates in which
direction the shaft must be moved to reach the target window.
LED display:
With factory setting, the LED glows green as long as the actual value is within the
programmed window. When leaving target window, the LED glows red. The shaft must be
rotated in the direction of the glowing LED in order to arrive at the target value. The red
glowing LED1 (left): counter-clockwise (ccw) rotation required. Red glowing LED2 (right):
clockwise (cw) rotation required.
With factory settings, the LED display (see chapter 4.4) has the following meaning:

The behavior of the clearance compensation is independent of the set
counting direction of the display. The loop type must be changed to change
the clearance compensation.
If the position indicator is operated on a spindle or an additional gear, the spindle or external
gear backlash can be compensated by means of loop positioning. Therefore, movement
towards the target value is always in the same direction. This direction of approach can be
defined.
Example:
Each target position should be approached with a clockwise rotation (CW) of the shaft.
•Case 1 the new position is greater than actual value:
The target position is approached directly clockwise (CW).
•Case 2 the new position is smaller than actual value:
The directional arrows of the position indicator indicate that the loop length is to be
moved counterclockwise (CCW) beyond the target position. Them the target value is
approached clockwise.

3.1.2 Alpha-numeric display operating mode
Two 6-digit target values can be displayed in this operating mode. The target values are
acknowledged by pressing the button (see chapter 2.3).
Alpha-numeric display:
Both lines are freely writable. The content of the display line can be transmitted via the
DisplayData parameter, and the content of the display line can be transmitted via the
TargetValue parameter. In ControlWord, the values must be switched to valid (see e. g.
bc09_TargetValueActive) and the bits for data identification must be set correctly (see e. g.
bc07_TargetValueTypeSelect). The data identifier is used to distinguish whether the data is
interpreted and displayed as a number or as an alphanumeric character (ASCII)
(see chapter 4.1.1, 4.1.3 and 4.1.5).
LCD display:
If there is no valid target value, the 1st display line is displayed blank. "----" appears in
the 2nd display line.
A valid target value is displayed flashing until its receipt is acknowledged. If neither target
value has been acknowledged, both values are acknowledged jointly by pressing the key.
Acknowledgment can also take place via the corresponding control bit via the interface.

3.2 Battery buffering
Without an external power supply, encoder changes are recorded with battery support.
Depending on the duration of battery operation (including storage) and the frequency of
adjustments without an external power supply, the battery life is approximately 8 years.
Battery voltage is checked at intervals of approx. 10 min. If battery voltage drops below a
specified value, the battery symbol will blink on the display. If the battery voltage
continues to drop, will be displayed permanently. The battery should be replaced within
approx. three months after the first appearance of the battery symbol. For battery
replacement it is mandatory to follow the instructions of the installation instructions.
Replacement can also take place at the SIKO distribution partners or in the SIKO main plant.
Behavior of the StatusWord:
The charge status of the battery is signified in the StatusWord. In the case of a critical
charging voltage, bs11_BatteryState is set, and in the case of an empty or non-existing
battery, a fault is additionally signaled with bs07_GeneralError.
3.3 Parameterization of the position indicator
The position indicator can be fully parameterized via the IO-Link interface. All parameters can
also be set manually with the help of the keyboard.

3.3.2 Parameterization via interface
The position indicator can be completely parameterized in the IO-Link interface
(see chapter 5.2).
3.4 Calibration
Calibration is only possible if the chain dimension is not active and the
actual value is not 0.
Two steps are required for executing calibration:
•Write calibration value: Parameter CalibrationValue (see chapter 4.2.5).
•Execute calibration (using operating keys, see chapter 2.3 or SystemCommand
see chapter 5.3 or ControlWord see chapter 5.1.1.1).
Since the measuring system is an absolute system, calibration is necessary only once with
commissioning. With calibration, the CalibrationValue is adopted for calculation of the actual
value. The following equation is applied in case (time) of calibration:
•Actual value = ActualValue = 0 + CalibrationValue

3.6 Warnings / Errors
3.6.1 Warnings
Warnings have no influence on the recording of the actual value.
Warnings are deleted after removing the cause.
Possible warnings:
•Battery voltage for absolute position detection is below limit immediately exchange
battery!
This warning is displayed with a blinking battery symbol. Warning messages are output via
the interface via the StatusWord (see chapter 3.5.1 and chapter 5.1.1.2). The cause of the
warning can be determined using the event code (see chapter 5.5).

3.6.2 Errors
Calibration may also be required Depending on the error type.
Error states are signaled via display (written in red or battery symbol) and interface. The
cause of the fault can be determined using the event or error code (see chapter 5.5 and 5.6).
To return to normal operation, the cause must be removed (see Table 16). Error signaling can
then be acknowledged or deleted with the key (see chapter 2.3).
(For signaling see chapter 2.1.)
