WCS-PG410
Communication with WCS read heads
OUT message
Function number for read head F0 = 0 (send position value)
ERR
0
OUT means that the position value cannot be determined because the position of the code rail
in the read head gap is incorrect.
OUT A (A=All) means that there is no code rail in the read head gap; all light barriers of the
read head report a signal.
The "OUT" message may be desirable and correct, e.g., if the code rail is interrupted and the
read head sends this information between the individual rail pieces to the control panel. If the
"OUT" message must not occur, the following test steps must be performed:
Result of the check
The upper edge of the code rail is outside the
tolerance range of the read head
The plastic protective lenses on the optical
unit are dirty or scratched
Incidence of extraneous light
If these measures do not solve the problem, the read head must be sent for inspection.
