6. Device Control

Once you have your sensor(s) positioned and connected properly, the system is ready for
continuous operation. Nonstop operation of the Endurance® device is achieved either by back
panel operation or through software control via the RS485, the LAN/Ethernet or PROFINET IO
communication interface. The Endurance® software, a MS-Windows based setup and
configuration program is supplied with your sensor. You can also create custom programs using
the communication protocols listed in section 10, Programming Guide.

6.1. Control Panel

The Endurance® sensor is equipped with a control panel, which is the manually operated user
interface and consists of two display types, one alarm and one status LED and several
setting/controlling buttons, as shown in
Figure 17. The panel is primarily for setting up the instrument prior to nonstop operation. A
screwable end cap with a sealed glass window protects the user interface during nonstop
operation. You are able to configure sensor settings via the control panel or remotely via a
computer or a programmable logic controller.
The sensor has a remote locking feature to protect the unit from accidental interaction over the
control panel. This lockout mode denies access to the submenu functions of the control panel.
Via the RS485, the LAN/Ethernet, the PROFINET IO communication interface or a specific key
command over the control panel, the Endurance® device can be unlocked.
