Starting up the device - Analog output
9.1
Analog output configuration on the receiver control panel
The configuration of the analog output involves the following steps on the receiver control panel.
General prerequisites:
• The measuring light curtain has been mounted (see chapter 6) and connected (see chapter 7 "Elec
trical connection") correctly.
• The basic configuration has been performed (see chapter 8).
Configuration of analog signal, analog function, characteristic curve (start beam / end beam)
The following example shows the configuration of an analog output to 4 … 20 mA. Current output pin 7
supplies an analog output signal depending on the first (FIB) interrupted beam. The measurement range
goes from beam no. 1 … 32.
Structure of the analog signal, analog function, characteristic curve (start beam, end beam) settings in the
receiver control panel menu (multiple settings shown simultaneously):
Select the type of analog signal.
Off, or a defined voltage level and/or current level.
Select the evaluation function whose result is to be depicted on the analog output.
Off, or FIB; FNIB; LIB; LNIB; TIB; TNIB.
Set the start of the characteristic curve.
The start of the characteristic curve is defined by the start beam.
Set the end of the characteristic curve.
The end of the characteristic curve is defined by the end beam.
The analog-device-specific configuration is concluded. The CML 700i is ready for process mode.

Analog output configuration via the
Sensor Studio
configuration software
The configuration of the analog output involves the following steps in the
Sensor Studio
configuration soft
-
ware (see chapter 16).
The configurations can be performed via the receiver control panel or the
Sensor Studio
config
-
uration software (see chapter 16). These configurations are stored in non-volatile memory so
that they are retained the next time the device is switched on.
It is always the last-made settings which are active.
