Interference filter
The interference filter can be used to increase measurement reliability
in the case of brief interferences in the measured section. Interferenc-
es such as rain, snow or chips in the air generate brief signals, which
can result in incorrect measurements. A higher filter level allows the
interfering signals to be ignored for a defined period. If the distance
changes suddenly, the response time is extended. This extension of
the response time depends on the filter level and the mode used. If the
distance changes continuously, the response time remains unchanged
when the filter is activated.

Emitted light
The sensor’s laser can be switched on or off.

Laser on
Off
Laser off
The sensor no longer supplies a measured value.
NOTE!
• If an input is set as a laser-off input, the emitted light
can also be switched on and off via the input.
• If the laser is switched off, the sensor behavior corre-
sponds to the status “No signal.”
On
Localization
The switching status indicators of the sensor can be switched to flash-
ing. This allows the sensor to be easily located in a plant.
