Two V200/V300 with synchronisation
If two V200/V300 are so arranged that they entirely or partially look at the same reflective
tape, the two cameras may interfere with each other. To prevent this situation occurring,
you must synchronise the two cameras.
How to synchronise two V200/V300:
⋅
Connect pin 3 on the two cameras together. The cameras will synchronise automatically
each time after switch on and after every teach-in procedure.
•
If you actuate the external key-operated pushbutton for teach-in or one of the two
internal teach-in keys, both devices will learn their protective fields at the same time.
•
If you use the internal restart interlock, then you can connect separate reset buttons or
a common reset button for both cameras.
•
If you use the external device monitoring, then must connect separate normally closed
contacts (k1, k2) for both cameras.
