- Page 43 Exploring the 42EF IO-Link Parameters default value for this parameter is 1.5 with multiple selections that could reach a maximum of 20X. This means that the sensor will need to have at least 20 times the amount of light for the Green LED to stop flashing. Counter/Timer Configuration: In this section, the operator is able to configure the sensor counter and timer functions.
- Page 44 Exploring the 42EF IO-Link Parameters Margin: Displays the status of the sensor margin low alarm. This process data element is a bit that indicates to the operator if the sensor signal is marginal or unstable. Proximity: Displays the status of the proximity alarm. This process data element is a bit that indicates if there is an object in close proximity to the threshold (below 1.0X) when the output is OFF.
