Ball Detect - Photocell Triggering
The photocell is an optical device used to detect a ball entering the pinsetter. It consists of a transmitter/
receiver device and a retroreflector. The transmitter/receiver device is mounted on the ball return
kickback and the retroreflector is mounted on the division kickback. They are positioned directly across
from each other at 25 mm (1”) above the capping. Refer to
Figures 3-11
and
3-12
.
The transmitter sends an infrared beam across the lane to the retroreflector which reflects the beam
back to the receiver. When any object cuts this beam, the receiver sends a pulse to the Pinsetter CPU.
The Pinsetter CPU then cycles the corresponding pinsetter.
WARNING: A strong light source such as a camera’s electronic flash may
cause the pinsetter to trigger.
