Ultrasonic sensor

Programming the output behavior for the switching output

The yellow LED is now flashing. The number of flashes indicates the output behavior currently programmed:

1x: NO contact

2x: NC contact

1. Briefly press the push button to switch between the possible output behaviors in succession. Use this method to choose the output behavior.

2. Press and hold the push button for 2 seconds to save the selection and switch to the programming routine for the sound cone.

Programming the beam width

The red LED is now flashing. The number of flashes indicates the beam witdht currently programmed:

1x: narrow

2x: medium

3x: wide

1. Briefly press the push button to navigate through the different beam widths in succession. Use this method to choose the required beam

width.

2. Press and hold the push button for 2 seconds to return to normal operation mode.

Note

The last beam width programmed applies for both outputs in equal measure.

Resetting the sensor to the factory settings

The sensor can be reset to the original factory settings.

1. Disconnect the sensor from the power supply

2. Press and hold one of the push buttons

3. Connect the power supply (yellow and red LEDs flash simultaneously for 5 seconds, followed by the yellow and green LEDs flashing simul-

taneously)

4. Release the push button

The sensor will now function with the original factory settings.

Factory settings

See technical data.

Synchronization

The sensor is fitted with a synchronization input that suppresses mutual interference from external ultrasonic signals. If this input is not connected,

the sensor operates with internally generated cycle pulses. The sensor can be synchronized by creating external rectangular pulses and by set-

ting the appropriate parameters via the IO-link interface. Each falling pulse edge sends an individual ultrasonic pulse. If the signal at the synchro-

nization input is low for >1 second, the sensor reverts to the normal, unsynchronized operating mode. This also occurs if the synchronization input

is disconnected from external signals (see note below).

If a high signal is applied to the synchronization input for > 1 second, the sensor switches to standby. This is indicated by the green LED. In this

operating mode, the last recorded output statuses are retained. Please observe the software description in the event of external synchronization.

Note:

If the option of synchronizing is not used, the synchronization input must be connected to ground (L-) or the sensor must be operated with a V1-

connection cable (4-pin).

The option of synchronization is not available during the programming process. During synchronization, the sensor can switch to programming

via the IO-link interface. This interrupts the synchronization process and the sensor is no longer synchronized.

The following synchronization modes are available:

1. Multiple sensors (see Technical data for the maximum number) can be synchronized by connecting the synchronization inputs on the sen-

sors. In this case, the sensors synchronize themselves in succession in multiplex mode. Only one sensor sends signals at any one time.
