Product Description
The lcs+ sensor offers a non-contact
measurement of the distance to an
object which must be positioned
within the sensor’s detection zone.
The switching outputs are set condi-
tional upon the adjusted detect dis-
tances.
The sensors can be adjusted via Teach-
in procedure using two buttons. Two
LEDs indicate operation and the states
of the switching outputs.
Optionally all Teach-in and additional
sensor parameter settings can be
made using the LinkControl adapter
(optional accessory) and the LinkCon-
trol software for windows®.
Note
The housing was updated with Batch
number XXXXXX. The assembly dia-
gram and installation height are iden-
tical to the old housing.
Safety Notes
Ԏ
Read the operating manual prior
to start-up.
ԎConnection, installation and ad-
justment works should be carried
out by expert personnel only.
Ԏ
No safety component in ac-
cordance with the EU Machine
Directive, use in the area of per-
sonal and machine protection
not permitted
Proper Use
lcs+ ultrasonic sensors are used for
non-contact detection of objects.
Installation
Î
Mount the sensor at the place of
fitting.
ÎConnect a connection cable to the
M12 device plug, see Fig. 1.

Synchronisation
If the assembly distance of multiple
sensors falls below the values shown
in Fig. 2, the internal synchronisation
should be used to avoid mutual inter-
ference between them. To do this in-
terconnect each pin 5 of the sensors
to be synchronised (max. 10 sensors).
lcs+340... ≥2.00 m ≥18.00 m
lcs+600... ≥4.00 m ≥30.00 m

synchronisation
Maintenance
microsonic sensors are maintenance-
free. In case of excess caked-on dirt
we recommend to clean the white
sensor surface.

Notes
ԎPin 5 (Sync/Com) of the sensor may
only be connected for synchronisa-
tion.
ԎThe sensors of the lcs+ family have
a blind zone, within which a dis-
tance measurement is not possible.
ԎThe lcs+ sensors are equipped with
an internal temperature compensa-
tion. Due to the sensors self hea-
ting, the temperature compensati-
on reaches its optimum working-
point after approx. 30 minutes of
operation.
ԎIn the normal operating mode, an
illuminated yellow LED signals that
the corresponding switching output
is set.
ԎIn the »Two-way reflective barrier«
operating mode, the object has to
be within the range of 0 to 85 % of
the set distance.
ԎIf no push-buttons are pressed for
5 minutes during parameter setting
mode the made changes are discar-
ded and the sensor returns to nor-
mal operating mode.
Ԏ
In the »Set switching point – me-
thod A« Teach-in procedure the
actual distance to the object is
taught to the sensor as the detect
point. If the object moves towards
the sensor (e.g. with level control)
then the taught distance is the level
at which the sensor has to switch
the output (see Fig. 3).
