Page 5: System Overview
MINI-ARRAY Two Piece Measuring Light Screen 2 System Overview The Banner A-GAGE MINI-ARRAY Two-Piece Measuring Light Screen was customized for vehicle separation applications. It incorporates the popular MINI-ARRAY emitter and receiver design and ease of use, while simplifying installation. This two-piece system does not require a separate controller. -

The system provides other scanning modes and operation features, which are not optimized for vehicle separation but are useful for other applications. These features are easily accessed using the Banner Sensors GUI software and an appropriate EIA-485 interface (consult a Banner Engineering representative for more information). The menu-driven program walks the user through the many scanning and output options. -
Page 7: Vehicle Detection Applications (Output #1)
® ® A-GAGE MINI-ARRAY Two Piece Measuring Light Screen 2.7 Vehicle Detection Applications (Output #1) The MINI-ARRAY Two-Piece Light Screen features a superior interlaced (cross-hatched) beam pattern. When the light screen is clear (no object is obstructing the receiver’s view of the emitted beam pattern), the sensor ignores small objects while waiting to detect the beginning of a vehicle. -
