Setting Mutual Interference Prevention - Omron ZS-HL User Manual

Setting Mutual Interference Prevention

Mutual interference between two Sensor Heads can be prevented by shifting the laser
beam emission timing. Use this function when Sensor Heads must be set up inside an
area where mutual interference is likely to occur or when a transparent workpiece will be
measured sandwiched between two Sensor Heads.

The sampling frequency is changed when the mutual interference prevention mode is enabled.
• 8 times in Standard, High-Resolution and High-Sensitivity modes
• About 15 times in the High-Speed mode
The measurement cycle is also influenced by other settings.
Check the sampling cycle in FUN Mode-[SYSTEM]-[INFO]-[CYCLE].
• The same sensing mode must be set to each controller when the mutual interference prevention mode
is used. When [HI-SPEED] or [CUSTOM] is selected as the measurement mode, the same conditions
must be set. Setting different conditions will result in a sampling cycle on each controller and mutual
interference can no longer be prevented.
• When GLASS (MODE2) or THICK (MODE2) is set, mutual interference prevention function does not
operate.
The mutual interference prevention function is not used. (default value)
Sets the light emission timing to timing A.
Sets the light emission timing to timing B.
