Operating
6.3 Operation with IO-Link
The diagram shows:
• Out 1 set to FSL
• Out 2 set to FSH
• 1 = contact closed
• 0 = contact open
Pin assignment with PNP, NPN, Push-Pull: see Output logic (Page 26)
Switchpoint with factory calibration
The unit is factory calibrated to measure dielectric constant of material >= 2.0. The
switchpoints are set in the IO-Link registers as stated here Operation with IO-Link (Page 38),
"Switchpoint setting of sensor". With factory calibration, the probe must be covered with a
certain height of material in order to switch from uncovered to covered (switchpoint), as
follows:
Dielectric constant of meas-
ured material
< 2.0
2.0
2.0 ... 3.0
3.0 ... 5
5 ... 10
>10 ... 40
* Switchpoint is below the probe (material not touching the probe).
The stated values are valid under the following conditions:
• The distance of the probe to a metal wall is not smaller than stated here Probe mounting
distances - liquids (Page 17) and Probe mounting distances - solids (Page 20)
• The Sensguard (see Options and accessories (Page 76) ) is not used
• Conductive material is not present
