(caused by either the emitter or receiver). Although sensor failures are rare, the Two-Piece MINI-ARRAY Basic is designed to continue to function while warning the user of fault conditions. This minimizes system down time and provides advanced notice that system maintenance or repairs are required. -
Page 7: Marginal Alignment/Dirty Lens Detection
® MINI-ARRAY BASIC Two-Piece Measuring Light Curtain 2.8 Marginal Alignment/Dirty Lens Detection When the received light signal drops below a predetermined threshold, the receiver recognizes a marginal alignment or dirty lens condition. The dirty lens threshold is equivalent to three times the minimum light signal necessary for detection. After this condition is detected, the receiver alerts the user that the lens surface should be cleaned or re-aligned. -
