2.4 Functional Test for Cyclops with connector
To perform a functional check on the Cyclops, connect the Pigtail colored wires
to the power supply and multi-meter as shown in Figure 1 below.
Additional Equipment required for functional tests:
DC Power Supply, 3 - 15 VDC, >100 mA
Multi-meter to read 0
– 5 VDC
Note: Supply voltages greater than 15 VDC will result in damage to
the sensor.
Figure 1.
With the Cyclops connected as shown in Figure 1 answer questions 1-3 by
making the following functional tests:
1. Is the LED on?
Hold a piece of white paper about ½ an inch in-front of the optical head to
ensure the LED is on.
Note: Cannot perform this test for Turbidity
sensors because they use IR which is not visible.
2. Is there voltage output?
The multi-meter should be reading some voltage >0 VDC
3. Does the voltage output change?
Move the light source closer to your hand or a surface and check if the
voltage output increases
