NOTE
•
Make sure that the
Calculation - Mode
setting on sensor 2 is set to
Disabled (no calcu‐
lation)
.
•
When using
Sensor calculation
mode, the measurement values can only be calcu‐
lated and output via channel
A
.
•
Only the sensor head where this setting has been made can transmit the mea‐
surement values via the UDP communication protocol.
•
Cascading of more than two sensor heads is supported.

Selectable channels
The settings for the digital signal of each channel are configured in this view. Four chan‐
nels are available for this. The settings can be individually configured for each channel.
NOTE
The digital signals cannot be measured on the device pins but are made available via
the Ethernet interface as part of data transmission.
7.3.8.1
Setting ObSB switching mode
ObSB = Object between Sensor and Background (object between device and back‐
ground)
In this switching mode, any background can be taught in as a reference. If an object
obscures the background or the distance to the background changes significantly, this
causes the device to switch. This switching mode is primarily suited to the reliable
detection of high-gloss or extremely dark materials. This makes it possible to detect
even painted vehicle parts with large approach angles, for example.
7.3.8.2
Setting DtO switching mode
DtO = Distance to Object, single switching point
