Operation ILR2250-100
6.1
Getting Ready for Operation
Install the ILR2250 sensor as per the installation instructions,
.
Connect the system to the downstream display or monitoring units and to the voltage supply.
The sensor may only be connected to peripherals when it does not carry power, that is, only when the
supply voltage has been switched off.
The measurement laser starts when the supply voltage is applied if an active measurement (see
LASER MEASURE ON
)
has previously been saved in the sensor.
The sensor is ready to use after approx. 2 s, digital accuracy is immediate. The sensor typically requires a warm-up time
of 5 min for reproducible measurements via the analog output.
i
The sensor can be put in an autostart state. To do this, all desired parameters must be set and saved on the sensor.
If the sensor is then switched off during an active measurement, it immediately resumes the saved measurement
task once the power supply is connected again.
If the
POWER
LED is off, no power is being supplied.

Operation using sensorTOOL
The sensor must be connected to a PC/Notebook via an RS422 converter and the supply voltage must be applied.
The sensorTOOL program also finds connected sensors via a network. You can find this program online at
https://www.micro-epsilon.de/download/software/sensorTOOL.exe.
Launch the sensorTOOL program and click on the
button.
The program will now search for connected ILR2250 sensors on the available interfaces.
Select a desired sensor. Click the
Start Data Acquisition
button.
