Notes to sensor selection and how to mark the target Optoelectronic type sensors A1S30P95, There is hardly another type of sensors fitting better to var- the standard for ying applications as the non-contact optoelectronic versions optoelectronic sensing do. The target is fast and easily prepared. The automatic signal conditioning, incorporated with the C118, accepts a line of paint, a hole, or a screw, or a blade as a mark.

Power Supply Mostly used, for best flexibility, are batteries (MN1500x4) Powered by or re-chargeable cells (IECR6). They are inserted into the batteries, cells, battery case underneath. or from mains by Further, the supply unit U1H008 may be used. Its output supply unit cable will be plugged into the front side metallic jack.
Input Signal Conditioning In its normal mode, the input of the C118 automatically Automatic signal adapts to the characteristics and size of the input signal. It conditioning = adjusts the signal gain, and eliminates erratic pulses, as fre- normal mode quently generated in photoelectric sensing by scratches and stains on the target surface.
No reliable measurement can be expected unless the input signal is clearly accepted! indispensable Note: pre-condition The input indicator may still be operational with the power to reliable measurements supply no longer adequate. MAX/MIN/AVG Function The C118 detects and memorizes the highest (MAX) and MAX/MIN/AVG the lowest (MIN) measurement within a controlled period memorizing...
Operating Modes FIX and VAR FIX = straight This is one of the facilities making the C118 that much useful. Select between both modes by actuating the tachometer FIX/VAR key. VAR mode is indicated by a sign in the VAR = using the display.

Computing (scaling) factor Determining the relation between One of the most fascinating facilities of the C118. It con- verts the measured signal frequency into readings in any measurement required engineer unit, introducing a conversion factor, in a and reading multiplying or dividing way. The multiplying mode increases the measured value (speed) Step No.
Notes: Do not select more decimals than necessary! If the high resolution thus achieved exceeds the stability of the varia- ble, and the repeatability of the input signal, the last digits in display and analog output necessarily will fluctuate, and be useless.
Automatic Power Shut-Off Step No. 08 To save battery capacity, the C118 can be automatically Automatic Switch shut off, when idling for 10 min. Power Off Step 08 enables this function by its parameter: 0 = function disabled 1 = function enabled Input Frequency Pre-Divider Step No.

Serial Data Interface General Characteristics Mode: RS232, without handshake leads. 4800 baud, 8 bits, no parity. Data handling Communication provided The interface provides results from all type measurements performed in the C118. It uses its own protocol: the transmission must be requested, and any request can call for one type of measurement only.
