Simple light barrier

The   simple   light   barrier   consists   of   a   head   standing

across from a reflector. The head is connected in socket

1.

After the auto-learning procedure the light barrier will re-

lease the camera system if the light beam between head

and reflector is interrupted. 

In this mode it is possible to adjust the sampling rate to 0.

Thus the light barrier reaches its fastest response time of

about 350 µs.
