5.2 Operating modes
The unit can only be configured via IO-Link�
The following operating modes can be set:
• Measurement over the maximum detection range
• Limitation of the detection range
Adjacent sensor elements can be suppressed from the top as well as from the
bottom in order to reduce the detection range (→ 10.2.1) � A maximum of 10
sensor elements can be deactivated�
• Orientation
The evaluation logic of the sensor can be rotated by 180° so that the sensor
can also be mounted overhead, with the connection cable facing upwards
(→ 10.2.1) � Note that the limitation of the sensor elements always refers to
the level� Limitation from the bottom refers to the lower sensor elements and
limitation from the top refers to the upper sensor elements�
• Setting of the sensor sensitivity
Two levels are available for sensor sensitivity, high and low� The high sensitivity
level is suited for the detection of low dielectric bulk material, for example� The
low sensitivity level can be used for detection of high dielectric media�
5.3 IO-Link
This unit has an IO-Link communication interface which enables direct access to
process and diagnostic data� In addition it is possible to set the parameters of the
unit while it is in operation� Operation of the unit via the IO-Link interface requires
an IO-Link master�
With a PC, suitable IO-Link software and an IO-Link adapter cable communication
is possible while the system is not in operation�
The IODDs necessary for the configuration of the unit, detailed information about
process data structure, diagnostic information, parameter addresses and the
necessary information about the required IO-Link hardware and software can be
found at www�ifm�com�
5.4 Adjustments
Before the sensor is used, it must be adjusted� Different application adjustments
are available�
