Information Before Use 3.3.3 Cable Wire Colors and Roles This section explains the colors of the wires and the roles of the Profiler 2 cables. Main cable This cable is used to supply power to the Profiler 2 and for I/O connections.
Profiler 2. 4. Measurement Perform measurements. With the Profiler 2, measurement results can be output using one of the following methods. 1. Judgment output (control output) • The Profiler 2 is equipped with three judgment outputs (control outputs).
• The measured result is compared against the threshold, and then the judgment result is output. Tips: • With the Profiler 2, you can save settings related to measurements in “banks.” Up to eight banks can be saved. Reference: For details on banks, see “7.9.1 Banks.”...
When the sensor head and computer are connected, click “Connect” to connect to the sensor head and automatically update the measured value. If the connection fails, the message “Failed to connect to Profiler 2 unit.” will be displayed. When you close the message, the common setup screen will be displayed.
Display into the specified item. Send PARAM Click to finish setting the Click to write the setting details to the Profiler 2. measurement. (The same operation is performed as when you click “Send Param” in the upper left of the screen.)

Set this value in steps of 5 μs. 7.2.4 Trig action The Profiler 2 performs a measurement each time that the trigger conditions are met. Set the action of this trigger. Cont Imaging and measurements are performed continuously while the trigger is on.
The storage function stores measurement results and profile data to the Profiler 2. Stored data can be output via PRO2-Navigator or RS-485 communication. The "Graph/Calc setting" screen of the Profiler 2 can be used to display stored measured values as a graph. 7.3.1 Storage Used to select storage contents.
When the target's position is shifted during measurement, you can correct the position and height of the area. With the Profiler 2, you can correct the height, position, and tilt. Do not use the correction functions when absolute positions are necessary such as for web guide control.
Functions Area Settings The Profiler 2 sets “areas” within the measurement range, and then performs measurements on these areas. You can specify up to four areas. 7.6.1 Measurement Areas Sets the positions and sizes of the areas within the camera area.
Sets the output range of the analog current output. To set this range, set arbitrary upper and lower limits on the output. The default output range is shown in the following figure. The analog output resolution of the Profiler 2 is approximately 0.4 μA. 24mA 20mA...
• Dark: The back light will get dark without any access to console buttons. • LCD OFF: The back light will be completely OFF without any access to the console buttons. While LCD back light is OFF, The Profiler 2 response speed of communi- cation will be faster.
Command Tips: • The settings willl be changed when the Profiler 2 receives the command. However, the changed settings will be erased when the power is turned off. To keep the settings, send the command to write them to EEPROM.
Specifications Timing Charts This section explains the timing charts of Profiler 2 measurements and output. 9.4.1 Measurement The timing charts of Profiler 2 measurements are shown below. Output switching behaviour Tolerance judgment (upper and lower thresholds and hysteresis) When "Out polar" is "N.O." and "On Timing" is "Out range"...
