Figure 2: Example of a laser warning sign on the device
What the laser warning label means: Laser radiation – Never look into the light beam –
Laser class 2
NOTE
Additional laser warning label
If the laser warning label applied to the device is concealed when the device is installed
into a machine or paneling, the laser beam outlet opening must be suitably labeled. For
this purpose, an additional warning label of the same type must be applied next to the
outlet opening.
Controlling the laser diode
When operating properly, the device only switches the laser diode on if there is an
object in the reading area, or if a reading is required (cyclic reading operation).
A laser timeout can switch off the laser diode automatically in this type of object trigger
control if
the pulse has stopped for too long
(e.g.
the conveyor system has stopped). In
this case, the current internal reading interval of the device remains open.
Depending on the selected parameterization type, the laser timeout can be set as fol‐
lows:
•
Using the SOPAS ET configuration software, on the
Illumination Control
device page
•
During GSD configuration with the “10_Object Trigger Ctrl” module (Profinet/
Profibus)
In the default setting, laser timeout is deactivated.
The laser diode is permanently or repeatedly switched on in the following device sta‐
tuses:
■
In the “Percentage Evaluation” and “Auto Setup” operating modes (only used tem‐
porarily for configuration/diagnosis)
■
In reading operation in the PSDI types “Auto pulse” (adjustable duty cycle) or
“free.”
If the timeout is activated, it will have no effect in this case.
