The classification diagrams show 4 Switch Units combined with End Caps to create 4-digit displays.
2.
The model numbers given above are for Switch Units.
3.
Models with +,
−
displays can also be produced. Add “-PM” (+/– alternating display) or “-MP” (–/+ alternating display) after the “206” or
“207” in the model number (e.g., A7BS-206-PM, A7BS-207-PM-1, or A7BS-206-MP). There is no “-MP” type available, however, for
A7BS-20@-S models.
4.
For models with PCB terminals, add “-P2” to the model number (e.g., A7BS-207-P2-1).
5.
Models with internal stoppers are also available. Add “-S@@” after the “206” or “207” in the model number and specify the display range
in the
@@.
For example, to specify the range 0 to 6, add “-S06” to the model number (e.g., A7BS-206-S06-1).
6.
Models with diodes are available. Add “-D” to the model number (e.g., A7BS-207-D or A7BS-207-D-1).

End Caps
End Caps are used on the Switch Units at each end and allow all the
Switch Units to be securely mounted to a panel. They come in pairs,
one for the left and one for the right.
■
Ordering Procedure
Place orders as shown in the example below, specifying the model
and number. Standard products are not factory-assembled for
shipment. Contact your OMRON representative for details on
ordering factory-assembled sets.
Spacers
Spacers are used for creating extra space or gaps between the
Switch Units and have the same dimensions as the Switch Units
themselves.
There are also Spacers with engraved characters or symbols that
can be used for indicating units, such as time and length. (Refer to
the following table.) Consult your OMRON representative for details.

Output Codes/Terminals
Switches with output codes 06 or 07 both use binary coded decimal
but Switches with output code 07 have a component-adding
provision. Similarly, Switches with output codes 54 or 55 both use
binary coded hexadecimal but Switches with output code 55 have a
component-adding provision.

How to Read Output Codes
Example for Output Code 06
For example, when the dial position is “3,” the common terminal C on
the Switch is connected to terminals 1 and 2. When the Switch is
inserted into the Connector, the common terminal C becomes
connector terminal 2, and terminals 1 and 2 become connector
terminals 4 and 5 respectively.

Unless otherwise specified, a tolerance of
±

The tolerance for multiple connection is
±

Note:
If the output code is 06 or 54, the dimension is 32.5; if the output
code is 07 or 55, the dimension is 43.5.
Thumbwheel Switches with External
Stoppers: A7BS-20@-S(-1)
•
Use A7BS-S Stopper Pins to make dial display restrictions for
these Switches.
•
Insert the Stopper Pins in the positions required to give the desired
display range. For example, for a display range of 0 to 5, insert a
Stopper Pin at position 1 (see following diagram) to stop the display
from going above 5 when the (+) button is pressed, and insert a
Stopper Pin at position 2 to stop the display from going below 0
when the (
−
) button is pressed.
Refer to page 37 for details.
