2. Specifications(Continued)
Input response time
Input taking-in cycle : 1 scanning time(100ms or 110ms)
(When selecting emission stop by external input, input taking-in cycle is 1msec)
(Note) It can set detecting area up to 10m but it isn't under our guarantee.
3. Functions
3-1. How to set detecting area
It can set detecting area which was made by software with serial input/output.
3-2. Stop emission
When this sensor is not required in the places where AGV stops etc., we recommend to use emission-stop
function because of preventing the interference. Scanning revolution and emission of LED stop when all
input(1 to 4) are getting ON(L level).
CAUTION
It takes approx. 1sec. from releasing emission-stop input to rebooting.
3-3. Setting detection area pattern changeover
Setting detection area pattern can be changed with [Input 1], [Input 2], [Input 3] and [Input 4].
CAUTION
* If area is changed by outer input, response time is getting slower.(Changeover time with approx. 100 to
110msec is added to response time.)
3-4. Trouble output
When revolution of scanner(Motor) stopped or it didn't receive LED's beam as standard emission light, trouble
output(Output 4) executes. Also, output 1, 2 and output 3 is the state it is detecting any obstacle. and power
lamp flickers with 1 sec interval.
3-5. 2-scanning operating mode
Normal mode executes output with 1 scanning result but this mode executes output with 2-scanning
continuous result and so malfunction by unstable reflective light hardly cause.
CAUTION
* If 2-scanning mode is used, response time is getting slower.
* In case of light interference, response time is widely delayed under 2-scanning mode.
3-6. Low-speed scanning mode
Scanning time is getting 110msec. This is used for holding response delay by mutual Interference(When
PBS's face each other) within 1 scanning.
CAUTION
* If low-scanning mode is used, response time is getting slower.
