Operational Controls and Indicators

1. Control Elements

  • 5-step rotary switch: Selects operating modes (threshold setting, operating modes)
  • Threshold setting switch: Configures switching thresholds A and B
  • Teach-In button: Stores measured values, resets settings, calibrates outputs

2. LED Indicators


IndicatorFunctionStatus Description
Green (Operating Indicator)Power/operation statusSolid: Normal operation; Flashing (4 Hz): Short circuit at output
Yellow (Function Indicators)Switching stateSolid: Corresponding output active
Green/Yellow (Teach-In)Teach-In statusEquiphase flashing (2.5 Hz): Successful teach-in; Non-equiphase flashing (8 Hz): Teach error

Teach-In and Configuration

1. Teach-In Procedures

  • Store Switching Threshold: Press and hold "SET" until LEDs flash in phase (≈2 s); release to start teach-in.
  • Overwrite Threshold: Repeats the above procedure for the target threshold (A or B).
  • Delete All Thresholds: Press and hold "SET" for >5 s; LEDs go out to confirm deletion.
  • Reset to Factory Settings: Set rotary switch to "RUN", press and hold "SET" for ≈10 s until green LED is solid.

2. Output Configuration


Output TypeDefault SettingsConfigurable Modes
Switching Output (Q1)InactiveLight on/Dark on (via connection assignment)
Analog Output (Q2)A=200 mm (4 mA), B=5000 mm (20 mA)Rising slope (A<B), Falling slope (A>B), Zero start point (delete A)

3. Teach-In Requirements

  • Minimum difference between thresholds A and B: >20 mm (exceeds switching hysteresis)
  • Unsuccessful teach-in (8 Hz flashing): Re-teach with larger threshold difference

Safety and Compliance

1. Safety Information

  • Laser Warning: Class 2 laser product – do not stare into the beam; avoid pointing at people.
  • Radiation Hazard: Unauthorized controls/adjustments may cause hazardous radiation exposure.
  • Maintenance: Repairs only by authorized personnel; ensure warning labels are visible.
