Laser Safety Laser Safety The optoNCDT ILR1171 works with a semiconductor laser at a wavelength of 905 nm (invisible/infrared). The maximum optical power is ≤ 1 mW. The sensors fall within laser class 1. The accessible radiation is harmless under predictable conditions. For class 1 laser devices, impairment of color vision and disturbances, e.g., from a glare effect, cannot be excluded.

Response (example): TP 048.4 The user of the optoNCDT ILR1171 must make sure that the stated ambient temperature (operating temperature) is adhered to. In case of deviations below or above the temperature range no measurement is possible. The optoNCDT ILR1171 will send an error message.
The autostart function determines what the optoNCDT ILR1171 does after a cold start. Upon connection to the supply voltage and after the internal switch-on routine, the optoNCDT ILR1171 carries out the command automatically and sends the data to the available outputs.
A 3.6.3 DR - ILR1171 Restart (Device Reset) DR - optoNCDT ILR1171 (Device Reset) DR executes a cold start of the optoNCDT 1171 and practically simulates a voltage interruption. This command is useful when the autostart command has been changed.

Output format 1 (hexadecimal) is not available! In conjunction with the baud rate, the output format determines the maximally possible output speed of measured values. If a higher measurement frequency is set, the results of some measurements will not be put out. optoNCDT ILR1171 Page 40...
The optoNCDT ILR1171 does not perform a plausibility check of the preset error mode. A 3.6.14 ST - Select Target ST defines the target which should be detected. The optoNCDT ILR1171 is able to detect 4 different target in maximum. Selection will be done between the first or the last detected target.
> 0 Trigger output optoNCDT ILR1171 sends a trigger impulse to the second sensor or device. The parametrization of the trigger connection is carried out via the serial interface or the internal display. For the trigger function may only be activated TI or TO. A concurrent use of TI and TO is not possible; the warning information w1907 is output.
