1.0 OVERVIEW
The Smart Laser Sensor (SLS) is a self-contained unit intended to be used
to make non-contact speed measurements from rotating targets at distances
up to 65 feet (19.8 m) or to provide non-contact reference points to
balancing equipment. Refer to Section 6.0 for an overview of operation.
The unit will output one (TTL Compatible) pulse per revolution and has
the ability to compute the RPM internally and output the ASCII values to
any equipment capable of receiving an RS232 input. For best performance
use reflective tape for the target.
2.0 INDICATORS AND SWITCHES
1. On Target
LED
Lit whenever the sensor is receiving a reflected
signal back from the target. As the frequency
increases, it will be on solid unless the
measured frequency is not stable. This is
useful in setting up the unit.
