To ensure an adequate voltage supply to the device, also connect the enclosed
wall plug to the SiLink2 Master.
✓
After successful initialization, the PWR status LED flashes green. The device is
ready for operation and the connection to the SiLink2 master is available.
NOTE
To use SOPAS ET with the device, a device description file (SDD file) is required. The
current version of the SDD file is available for download on the product page:
•
Install the SDD file via the device catalog in SOPAS ET. Following installation, the device
can be selected from the device catalog and added to a project. A connection to
the device is established via the communication interface. The connection must be
activated for data transmission (online).

Measurement

Cycle time
The cycle time defines the interval in which the device performs a measurement. The
cycle time corresponds to the output rate of the measured values.
•
Auto
mode: The device adjusts itself to the maximum speed at which the device
achieves a stable measurement, depending on the object surface. In the
Auto
operating mode, the cycle time is adjusted dynamically so the output rate of the
measured values can vary over time.
•
Fixed setting: The device uses the set cycle time as a maximum, regardless of the
object surface. The output rate of the measured values corresponds to the set
value and remains constant.
NOTE
If the reflectance properties of the object are not sufficient to perform a valid
measurement, the device outputs the value of an incorrect measurement,
.
The cycle time can be increased to display a valid measured value for dark
objects.

Measured value filter
The measured value filters optimize the signal curve. The filters facilitate the evaluation
by the controller, e.g. for control tasks.
