Operating instructions
lcs-Ultrasonic Sensors with
three switched outputs
lcs-25/DDD/QP
lcs-35/DDD/QP
lcs-130/DDD/QP
Product description
The lcs-sensor with two switched out-
puts measures the distance to an object
within the detection zone contactless.
Depending on the adjusted detect dis-
tance the switched outputs are set.
The output functions are changeable
from NOC to NCC.
Light emitting diodes (three-colour
LEDs) indicate the switching status.
The sensors can be trained using Teach-
in processes.
Using the LinkControl adapter (optional
accessory) all sensor parameter settings
may be made by a Windows-Software.
Important instructions for as-
sembly and application
All employee and plant safety-relevant
measures must be taken prior to assembly,
start-up, or maintenance work (see operation
manual for the entire plant and the operator
instruction of the plant).
The sensors are not considered as safety
equipment and may not be used to ensure
human or machine safety!
The lcs-sensors indicate a blind zone, in
which the distance cannot be measured. The
operating range indicates the distance of the
sensor that can be applied with normal re-
flectors with sufficient function reserve.
When using good reflectors, such as a calm
water surface, the sensor can also be used up
to its maximum range. Objects that strongly
absorb (e.g. plastic foam) or diffusely reflect
sound (e.g. pebble stones) can also reduce
the defined operating range.
Assembly instructions
Assemble the sensor at the installation
location.
Plug in the connector cable to the M 12
connector.

Assembly distances
The assembly distances shown in Fig.2 for
two or more sensors should not be fallen
below in order to avoid mutual interference.

Start-up
lcs sensors are delivered factory made with
the following settings:
Switched outputs on NOC
Detecting distances at operating range
and half operating range
Measurement range set to maximum
range
Set the parameters of the sensor using the
Teach-in procedure.
Operation
lcs- sensors work maintenance free. Small
amounts of dirt on the surface do not influ-
ence function. Thick layers of dirt and caked-
on dirt affect sensor function and therefore
must be removed.
Note
mic+sensors have internal temperature
compensation. Because the sensors heat
up on their own, the temperature com-
pensation reaches its optimum working
point after approx. 30 minutes of opera-
tion.
During normal mode operation, a yel-
low LED signals that the corresponding
switched output has connected.
During Teach-in mode, the hysteresis
loops are set back to factory settings.
If no signal is transmitted to the Com
input for 20 s during parameter setting
mode the made changes are stored and
the sensor returns to normal mode ope-
ration.
You can reset the factory settings at any
time, see »Lock Teach-in & factory set-
ting«.
lcs-sensors optional can be programmed
using the LinkControl adapter LCA-2,
see «Optional setting of parameters
using the LinkControl Adapter LCA-2».
