Explanation of sensor function and menu items
Mode (LS/HMD)
- sensor mode
Primary function of sensor is
LS
– loop scanner – sensor for position measurement of the edge
of hot material. In this mode, sensor must be situated so, that the edge of hot material is in his
field of view. If signal from PbS photocell exceeds threshold, then the edge of this signal is
used for detection of material position (usually trailing edge). Angle of rotating mirror in the
moment of detection is proportional to material position in the sensor's field of view.
Additionally sensor can be set to
HMD
mode – hot metal detector – sensor only detects if
signal from PbS photocell exceeds threshold (menu item
Thre
). Edge of material does not need
to be in the field of view. Although basic mask inside the sensor is enough usually to limit
sensor's field of view, in some cases it needs to be limited by additional mechanical shields (it
depends on place of installation). Please send us max. viewing angle you need in quotation.
Sensor –
detection parameters configuration
There is possibility to configure two parameter value sets (gain, threshold, hysteresis)
and switch between them (also remotely). This is suitable for production lines with different
product profiles. E.g. for thin wire it needs to be higher gain then for thick bars
In each set (
ValSet1
,
ValSet2
) there is possibility to adjust gain (
Gain
), threshold (
Thre
) and
hysteresis (
HysT
). Sensor sets output detection signal to on if amplitude of photocell signal
exceeds threshold (
Thre
), and sets it off if amplitude is below
Thre-HysT
.
Which value set is actually used can be selected in menu item
Set
- manually (item
Set
is set to
Man1
or
Man2
) or it can be selected remotely by switching relay (item
Set
is set to
Rel
).
