System Operation and Functions
[ABI indication in beam alignment]
For the installation of the F3SG-SR/PG, you can use the ABI indicators to display that beam alignment
is successful.
After the F3SG-SR/PG is powered up and synchronization between the emitter and receiver is
established, if stable unblocked state cannot be confirmed, the ABI indicators are illuminated as follows.
However, the F3SG-SR/PG does not monitor all beams like in normal operation but monitors the
unblocked/blocked state of only some beams in the group (hereinafter those beams are called
monitoring beams). One or two beams are selected automatically from the group as monitoring
beams.
When all monitoring beams reach stable state, all the the ABI indicators change indication at every
second like green -> orange -> green -> orange -> green, indicating that beam adjustment is
completed.
This operation is executed only in the unblocked/blocked state indication configuration and during start-up. In addition, if
stable state of all monitoring beams can be confirmed soon after synchronization is established, this indication is not
executed. So, after installation is completed, when the F3SG-SR is powered up again in the arrangement and usage that
all beams are unblocked or in the normal blocked state, the indication above is not executed.
Input Signal Linkage
Indication of all the ABI indicators can be operated by muting input A and muting input B. For example,
by turning ON the ABI indicators using the output signal from the PLC, the ABI indicators are usable as
a guide light for the operator.
Output Information
F3SG-SR/PG’s state can be displayed by the ABI indicators.
The information assigned is equal to the information assigned to the auxiliary output.
For the details of the information assigned to the auxiliary output, refer to
2-22-2. Factory Default Setting
The factory default setting is set as unblocked/blocked state information.
2-22-3. Setting Change using Intelligent Tap
It is unable to change the setting of this function using the DIP Switch of the Intelligent Tap.
2-22-4. Setting Change using SD Manager 3
The following setting can be done using SD Manager 3.
