Startup and operation

6.1

Startup

DANGER
Uncontrolled system movement
When starting up, if the sensor is part of a closed loop
system whose parameters have not yet been set, the
system may perform uncontrolled movements. This
could result in personal injury and equipment damage.
► Persons must keep away from the system's
hazardous zones.
► Startup must be performed only by trained technical
personnel.
► Observe the safety instructions of the equipment or
system manufacturer.
CAUTION
Red light
If you look into the light beam emitted by the transmitter,
temporary blinding and irritation of the eyes is possible.
► Do not look into the light beam!
1. Check connections for tightness and correct polarity.
Replace damaged connections.
2. Turn on the system.
3. Check measured values and adjustable parameters
and realign and adjust the sensor, if necessary.
Check for the correct values, especially after
replacing the sensor or after repair by the
manufacturer.

Operation

CAUTION
Red light
If you look into the light beam emitted by the transmitter,
temporary blinding and irritation of the eyes is possible.
► Do not look into the light beam!
No further protective measures are required for operation.
Configure sensors
1. Position the emitter and receiver to the desired
distance.
2. Set the potentiometer to maximum sensitivity (greatest
range).
3. Detect the on and off output switchpoint (yellow LED):
move the emitter or receiver in multiple directions so
that the switching state of the yellow LED on the
receiver changes (on or off). Each switching state
change indicates one switchpoint.
In order to detect very small objects, reduce the
sensitivity and thus the range and adjust the
positioning of the sensors.
4. Mount the sensor that was moved in the middle of the
determined switchpoints. The system is operating
optimally when the green LED of the receiver lights up
and the yellow LED is off for the NO contact version
and on for the NC contact version.

Operating notes

– Regularly check function of the sensor and all
associated components.
– Take the sensor out of service whenever there is a
malfunction.
– Check fasteners regularly and retighten if needed.
