Page 13: Installation Hints For Best Performance
FUSION-C Users Manual Installation Hints For Best Performance This section offers several suggestions which will help you get the best performance from your measurement system. Some sensors generate comparatively small signals which can easily be corrupted by the potentially high level of electrical noise which can be created by electrical machinery such as motors, welding systems, discharge lighting, AC power inverters and solenoids. - Page 14 FUSION-C Users Manual Page 11 www.london-electronics.com...

Page 22: Simple Rate Mode
FUSION-C Users Manual Simple Rate Mode Rate mode is ideal for showing instantaneous speed, RPM, frequency, production rate, flow rate etc. For production rate showing the true number of items produced in the last hour, consider using our ‘Production Rate Mode’ method, which is ideal for production which is erratic or has periods of widely differing production rate. -

Page 27: Totalising Modes
FUSION-C Users Manual Totalising Modes There are several useful totalising modes available, which use 1 or more of the display’s logic input ports. The total will be stored on loss of power, and will be restored when power is returned to the display. -
Page 28: Totalising Modes - Application Notes
FUSION-C Users Manual Totalising Modes - Application Notes The 8 totalising modes are ideal for counting pulses, where 1 pulse = 1 item, or the total can be scaled, for example to show total flow of liquid, where 1 pulse may represent a certain volume of liquid according to the relationship between “... -
Page 29: Production Rate Mode
FUSION-C Users Manual Production Rate Mode In this mode four inputs are available, two can add to give a combined total, and two can subtract to give combined rejects. This mode of rate measurement is ideal for showing real production rates over longer periods, for example showing items per hour, for the previous hour, updated every 15 seconds, 5 minutes, or whatever best suits your process. -

FUSION-C Users Manual Production Rate Mode - Continued will appear, prompting you to enter a Set1 Set2 Output Alarms Digit value for the number of bins to use. Default is 0, Max/Min Reset maximum is 200. See opposite for a guide how to choose the best value. -
Page 31: Production Rate Mode - Application Notes
FUSION-C Users Manual Production Rate Mode - Application Notes 1. Choose an averaging time, in seconds, you want to use for computing your production rate. For example if you want to average over 45 minutes, your averaging time will be 2700 seconds. -
Page 32: Quadrature Mode
FUSION-C Users Manual Quadrature Mode The quadrature mode allows you to scale a count and increase or decrease the value according to the sequencing of two pulses which are 90 degrees out of phase. This mode is ideal for measuring distance in pay-out/feed-in cable systems, or direction in rotary systems. -
Page 33: Quadrature Mode - Application Notes
FUSION-C Users Manual Quadrature Mode - Application Notes In a quadrature sensor, the two incoming pulses overlap. Pulses to input 1 will arrive before or after pulses to input 2, depending on the direction of movement. This is achieved by staggering the trigger zones for sensor A and B. They must overlap, so that one will lead the other in one direction, and vice-versa. -
