Functional principle of the joker² light barrier system

Interval
Name:
Interval
, Levels:
,
,
,
Default setting: 350 ms
The parameter
interval
specifies the time an output is considered to be
busy and does not accept a new trigger.
This parameter can be used to avoid unwanted multiple releases, if
one or more objects should cross the light barrier within a short time
interval.
The minimum value of the parameter is calculated as follows:
𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑣𝑎𝑙 ≥ 𝑙𝑎𝑔 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒 + (𝑟𝑒𝑝𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠 × 𝑟𝑒𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑒 𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑜𝑑)
The software here also takes care of the minimum value of the interval.
Hence, if a parameter in the right part of the inequality is increased, the value
of the interval parameter is adjusted, if necessary. However, when a value
on the right side is decreased, the interval will not be modified.
When changing the values for lag time, release time, release period,
interval and repetition, make sure when you are done that all param-
eters have the desired values!

Repetitions

repetit

Default setting: 0
The parameter specifies the number of repetitions for the release time. If the
value of the parameter is 0, no repetitions will occur and the output is
switched exactly once.
The total number of releases resulting is one more than the number of repe-
titions:
𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑒𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑠 = 𝑟𝑒𝑝𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠 + 1
