3 Functions and features
The unit is used as an optical distance sensor�
3.1 Application areas
• The optical distance sensor measures distances between 0�2���10 m�
• It has a background suppression at >10���100 m�
• The measured value is shown in a 10-segment display�
• Two output signals can be generated depending on the set output function�
The distance between the sensor and the background must be limited to
max� 100 m by the customer� Otherwise measured values can be ambi-
guous.→5.1Installationconditions
4 Modes
4.1 Hysteresis function mode
The hysteresis keeps the switching state of the output stable if the measured
value varies about the sensing range� Both outputs (OUT1 and OUT2) can be set
ashysteresisfunction.→9.2.4Hysteresisfunction
4.2 Window function mode
The window function enables the monitoring of a defined acceptable range� Both
outputs(OUT1andOUT2)canbesetaswindowfunction.→9.2.6Window

4.3 Analogue function mode
An analogue signal, which is proportional to the distance, can be provided at out-
put2(OUT2).→9.2.11Scalingofthemeasuringrange(analogueoutput).

5 Installation
5.1 Installation conditions
►Install the unit so that the object to be detected is within a measuring range of
0�2���10 m�
The unambiguity range of the sensor is fixed to 100 m� Objects within a range >
10���100 m are suppressed�
Reflecting objects in the direct beam path of the sensor - also in the ran-
ge > 100 m – are to be avoided by the customer� Otherwise the measured
values can be ambiguous�

switching condition is met but only after the delay has elapsed� If the swit-
ching condition is no longer met after the delay has elapsed, the switching
state of the output does not change�

9.2 Configuration of the basic settings
9.2.1 Selection of the display unit
Set [Uni] before the values for the parameters [SPx], [nSPx], [FSPx],
[ASP], [AEP] are defined�
In case of subsequent changes of the display unit rounding errors during
internal conversion to other units may falsify the set values�
►Change to [EF]�
►Select [Uni] and set the unit of measurement�
Selection of the unit of measurement: [mm], [m], [inch]
►Confirm with [MODE/ENTER]�
> The selected unit is indicated by a green LED on the display�
9.2.2 Setting the display
►Change to [EF]�
►Select [diS] and make settings�
7 settings can be selected:
•[d1] = update of the measured values every 50 ms�
•[d2] = update of the measured values every 200 ms�
•[d3] = update of the measured values every 600 ms�
•[rd1], [rd2], [rd3] = display like [d1], [d2], [d3] but rotated by 180°�
The update of the measured value only refers to the display� It has no
effect on the outputs�
•[OFF] = the measured value display is deactivated in the Run mode�
When one button is pressed the current measured value is displayed
for 15 s�
►Confirm with [MODE/ENTER]�
The LEDs remain active even if the display is deactivated�
9.2.3 Configure OUT1
►Select [OU1] and set the switching functions�
Switching functions:
•[Hno] = hysteresis function / normally open
•[Hnc] =
hysteresis function / normally closed
•[Fno] = window function / normally open
•[Fnc] = window function / normally closed
►Confirm with [MODE/ENTER]�

16
9.2.4 Hysteresis function
The hysteresis keeps the switching state of the output stable if the measured
value varies about the sensing range� In both cases the set and reset points are
symmetrically arranged about the selected switch point [SPx]� The hysteresis
is the distance between set and reset points; it is calculated on the basis of the
repeatability with a safety factor of 1�5�
Example Hno
1� For the output function [Hno] the output switches when the object approaches
and when the set point (A) is reached�
2� When the object is removed again, the output does not switch back before the
reset point (B) is exceeded�
The reset point (B) is above the set point (A)�
1
2
[SPx] =
switch point;
A = set point; B = reset point
If the output function [Hnc] has been selected, the set and reset points are
reversed� The output switches off when the object approaches� When the object is
removed again, the output switches�

17
UK
Switching state of the outputs
Output function Object distance (D) Output status
[Hno] D < [SPx] closed
D > [SPx] open
[Hnc] D < [SPx] open
D > [SPx] closed
Example of output function [Hno]
Sampling rate 15 Hz, distance to the object 1200 mm, grey value (18 % remission):
Hysteresis=±8mm(repeatability→9.3.3table)xfactor1.5=12mm
- Reset point 1200 mm + (12 mm) = 1212 mm
- Set point 1200 mm - (12 mm) = 1188 mm
9.2.5 Setting of the switch point for hysteresis function OUT1
►In [OU1] select the output function [Hno] or [Hnc]�
►Confirm with [MODE/ENTER]�
►Select [SP1] and set the switch point�
►Confirm with [MODE/ENTER]�
9.2.6 Window function
It is possible to define a window for the object recognition for each of the two
outputs (OUT1 / OUT2)�
Switches when the object is detected
[nSPx] =
switch point
"
near
"; [FSPx] =
switch point
"
far
"; FE = window
If the measured value is between the switch point "near" [nSPx] and the switch
point "far" [FSPx], the output is closed (when [OUx] = [Fno])�

18
Switches off when the object is detected
[nSPx] =
switch point
"
near
"; [FSPx] =
switch point
"
far
"; FE = window
If the measured value is between the switch point "near" [nSPx] and the switch
point "far" [FSPx], the output is open (when [OUx] = [Fnc])�
Switching state of the outputs
Output function Object distance (D) Output status
[Fno]
D < [nSPx] open
D > [FSPx]
[nSPx] < D < [FSPx] closed
[Fnc]
D < [nSPx] closed
D > [FSPx]
[nSPx] < D < [FSPx] open
Both window limit values ([nSPx] and [FSPx]) work with a switching hysteresis
