Different Transmission Channels to Prevent Mutual Interference

Two differing transmission channels can be set by means of the DIP switch S2 in order to prevent
functional disturbance from mutual interference by two neighboring units. The selected transmission
channel 1 or 2 is indicated in the transmitter and receiver displays.

3.5.2 Multiple Evaluation Procedure for Environments with Sources of
Extreme Infrared Pulses
High immunity to interference is already realised by the component technology used in the
COMPACT in combination with a special software algorithm for the suppression of interference.
For applications in environments of extreme disturbance from interfering light, e.g. from many
welding robots, the multiple scanning mode d-scan can be set by means of the DIP switch S3. The
response time of the unit is thereby increased to the value which is indicated on the type plate and
in Table 1 (Chapter 8, Technical data and dimensions).
3.5.3

Contamination and Fault Signal Output

A short-circuit-proof signal output for „weak signals or fault" can be connected by means of the DIP
switch S1 to the connecting terminal 6 in place of the RS-485 interface. The pnp output carries +24
V, and is switched to high resistance in the case of contamination or a fault.
