Output as signal level warning (OWS )
NOTE!
This function can be configured only via IO-Link.
You can configure the Q1 or Q2 output for the signal level warning (OWS).
The level can be adjusted within the range of 0 … 65535. If the signal ex-
ceeds or falls below the configured level, the output is connected. Hystere-
sis cannot be configured. The output behavior can be inverted.
Depending on the application, the setting must always be defined by the
user. When using the signal level warning (OWS), we recommend first
performing a measurement of a reference object with known and constant
optical properties.
