    ® ™ A-GAGE EZ-ARRAY with IO-Link v1.1 3 Configuration via DIP Switch or IO-Link v1.1 Interface Commonly used configuration options can be set up easily via a six-position DIP switch located behind a hinged clear access panel on the front of the receiver. Access to the DIP switch can be prevented by using the screw-on security plate to hold the clear access panel closed or by disabling them via the IO-Link v1.1 interface.

    ® ™ A-GAGE EZ-ARRAY with IO-Link v1.1 3.3 Blanking If a machine fixture or other equipment blocks one or more sensing beams, the affected beam channels may be blanked. The blanking option causes the receiver to ignore the status of blanked beams for measurement mode calculations. For example, if a machine fixture blocks one or more beams during sensing, the output data will be incorrect;...

    ® ™ A-GAGE EZ-ARRAY with IO-Link v1.1 4 Installation Instructions 4.1 Mounting the Emitter and Receiver Compact EZ-ARRAY emitters and receivers are easy to handle during mounting. When mounted to the sensor end caps, the supplied mounting brackets allow ±30° rotation. An emitter may be separated from 400 mm to 4 m (16 in to 13 ft) from its receiver.
  • Page 17 ® ™ A-GAGE EZ-ARRAY with IO-Link v1.1 Figure 12. Mechanical alignment When alignment is difficult, use alignment tool LAT-1-SS to assist or confirm alignment by providing a visible red dot along the sensor's optical axis. Snap the LAT-1 clip onto the sensor housing, turn on its laser emitter, and use a strip of retroreflective tape at the opposite sensor to see the dot.
