1. Use for Intended Purpose This wenglor product has to be used according to the following functional principle: High-performance distance sensors which use the principle of transit time measurement determine the dis- tance between the sensor and the object according to the principle of transit time measurement. These sensors have a large working range and are therefore able to detect objects over large distances.

The Sensors’ measuring range is determined by object remission. Maximum range of OPT2013, OPT2014 OPT2012 Up to 10 m on white (90 % remission) Up to 6 m on white (90 % remission) Up to 5 m on gray (18 % remission)
If the “La” pin is open or connected to negative, the laser is on. If positive voltage is applied, the laser is off. In the case of OPT2012 Pin “A1” can also be used as an analog output. The reference to ground here is Pin “–” (supply voltage “0 V”).
Sensor. The Sensor must be protected against mechanical influences. Install the device such that its installation position cannot be inadvertently changed. The wenglor mounting system is recommended for installing the Sensor. In order to obtain best possible results, the device’s optics should be aligned at a right angle to the direction in which the objects are conveyed.

Without Offset equalization: In the diagram, the Sensor measures a distance of 5000 mm. The switching point is located 2000 mm distant, at 7000 mm. Switching Point 5000 mm 7000 mm [Distance measured with a meter ruler(mm)] With application of the offset equalization: Specification offset: 0 mm In the diagram, the Sensor measures a distance of 5000 mm.
Example of application: A OPT2013 is used in a high rack warehouse with varying ambient temperatures. To eliminate the temperature drift, a reference path of 1000 mm is specified to the Sensor as the specification offset. Through an external trig- ger Sensor, the specification offset is applied and given to the Sensor as the current distance.
