Self-contained
Retroreflective-
and
Diffuse-mode
Laser Distance Sensors
•
Diffuse
model with extremely long distance ranges:
◦
Up to 3 meters with black target
◦
Up to 7 meters with gray target
◦
Up to 10 meters with white target
•
Retroreflective
model range: up to 250 meters
• Visible pilot laser for easy alignment
•
Multiple
outputs in each model: discrete outputs can be used for precision
background suppression; and alarm outputs together with display provide easy
troubleshooting
◦
Diffuse
models: Two discrete (PNP) plus 2 alarm outputs, and 4-20 mA
analog
◦
Retroreflective
models: Two discrete (PNP) plus 2 alarm outputs
• Fast, easy-to-use TEACH-mode programming via integrated
push-buttons
or serial
interface (no
potentiometer
adjustments)
• Ongoing LCD display of sensing distance selectable in millimeters or one-
hundredths of one inch
• RS422- or
SSI-compatible
serial
connection

WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel
Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel
protection.
Doing so could lead to serious injury or
death. This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel
safety
applications.
A sensor failure or
malfunction
can cause either an energized or de-energized sensor output
condition.

Programming
Buttons
The sensor has an LCD display and 3 push
buttons,
which control all programming
functions.
Serial interface programming can also be accomplished via SSI or RS422.
Four status indicator LEDs on the sensor front/top provide ongoing status of power and
outputs.
The sensor has a 2-line LCD display and four LED indicators for ongoing
indication
of
sensing status: Power ON, Alarm, and Outputs 1 and 2.
In Run mode, the current measured value is displayed in the top line of the sensor's
display, in millimeters or hundredths of an inch, as selected.
