Block evaluation of beam areas
This function can be used to define beam areas and evaluate them individually.
4.6.1
Defining beam area
To read out the beam states block-wise with an 8-bit telegram, the individual beams can be mapped to up
to eight areas independent of the maximum beam number. The individual beam information of grouped
beams is linked to a logical bit, i.e., each area is represented as 1 bit.
The number of beams in an area can be freely defined. However, the beams must be adjacent to one
another. The start beam and the end beam are to be defined as well as the conditions for switching of the
area.
4.6.2
Autosplitting
The beams of the device are automatically divided into the selected number of areas of the same size. The
states of the areas generated in this way can be read out in the process data by means of the "Evaluation
function" parameter.
Procedure:
• Select logic combination of the beams within the areas (logical AND / logical OR)
• Define number of desired areas
The autosplitting configuration can be defined via the interface (see chapter 9) or via the
Sensor Studio
4.6.3
Mapping beam area to switching output
If grouping individual beams or if creating a block, the beam state of any number of adjacent beams (area)
can be signaled at a switching output.
