2.3.1 Outputs

All models have two analog outputs and two discrete outputs (discrete output 1 is an IO-Link output).
The analog outputs are 0–10V voltage. They may be configured (via DIP switch or IO-Link interface) for either a positive or negative
slope.
Discrete output 1 is always used for measurement; discrete output 2 may be used either for alarm or measurement operation
(selectable via DIP switch or IO-Link interface). When the receiver interface is used, discrete output 1 and analog output 1 follow the
same measurement mode. When the IO-Link interface is used for configuration, discrete output 2 has full configurability, including
measurement mode, NPN or PNP polarity, and normally open or normally closed operation. Discrete output 1 has the same
configurability as discrete output 2, except for NPN or PNP polarity. Discrete output 1 is a dedicated push-pull output.

2.3.2 Display Invert

For applications where the sensors must be mounted with the display end at the top (so that the display is not right-reading), the
receiver's diagnostic display can be inverted for easy reading, either by use of the receiver's remote wire
Wire) or the IO-Link interface (HW Interface Flags in

2.4 Status Indicators

Both the emitter and receiver provide ongoing visual indication of operating and configuration status.
The emitter has a red LED that signals proper operation (ON when power is applied).
The receiver has a bright Status LED that indicates overall sensing status (OK, marginal alignment, and hardware error). Two other LEDs
indicate whether communication is active or if there is an error. Seven Zone indicators each communicate the blocked/aligned status of
one-seventh of the total array. A 3-digit diagnostic display provides further diagnostic information: number of beams blocked, whether
blanking is configured, and troubleshooting codes. See

2.4.1 Zone Indicators (Beams Blocked Segment)

Seven LEDs represent emitter/receiver alignment status. They provide a visual aid for sensor alignment and monitoring objects within
the sensor's field of view. The sensor array is partitioned into seven equal segments, each of which is represented by one of the seven
LEDs. The LED closest to DIP switch S6 (see
the receiver display (the "bottom" group). The LED closest to DIP switch 1 represents the far segment of channels.
These LEDs illuminate either green or red. When an LED is green, no unblanked beams are obstructed in that segment. When the LED is
red, one or more beams in that segment is obstructed.

2.4.2 Three-Digit Display

The 3-digit display has slightly different functions during normal operation, alignment, and gain adjust modes. In normal operation the
display indicates the current numerical value of measurement mode 1. The display also identifies the following activated sensor
functions: blanking and locked-out user interface/electronic configuration, as shown in
(For directions for inverting the display, see
During blanking mode, the display reads "n", followed by the number of blocked beams in the array. During alignment mode, it reads
"A", followed by the number of blocked, unblanked beams; a period follows the A ("A.") if blanking is configured.
