1.0 OVERVIEW
The Smart Laser Sensor (SLS) is a self-contained unit intended to be used to
make non-contact speed measurements from rotating targets at distances
up to 65 feet (19.8 m) or to provide non-contact reference points to balancing
equipment. Refer to Section 6.0 for an overview of operation. The unit will
output one (TTL Compatible) pulse per revolution and has the ability to
compute the RPM internally and output the ASCII values to any equipment
capable of receiving an RS232 input. For best performance use reflective
tape for the target.
2.0 INDICATORS AND SWITCHES
1. On Target LED Lit whenever the sensor is receiving a
reflected signal back from the target. As the
frequency increases, it will be on solid unless
the measured frequency is not stable. This is
useful in setting up the unit.

2. Laser On LED Blinks when unit is first turned on. Remains
lit when the laser beam is on.
3. Auto/Gain LED On solid whenever the unit is in the Auto
mode. It also blinks from 1 to 8 times to
indicate the current gain whenever the gain is
changed.
4. Power LED (Dependent on the Power switch location)
On position: GREEN when the batteries are charged.
Blinks AMBER when the batteries are low.
Charge position: Blinks RED when fast charging for very low
batteries.
Blinks AMBER when slow charging.
Steady AMBER when the batteries are fully
charged.
5. Polarity switch Selects either a positive or negative output
pulse.
6. Learn/Gain button
In Auto Mode: Press and hold until the On Target LED blinks
regularly or is on solid.
In Manual Mode: Press to change gain ranges.
7. Sensitivity Adjust knob Turn fully counterclockwise to select
Auto mode or manually adjust
sensitivity threshold.
8. Power switch Turns unit On or Off. When the unit is
switched to Off/Charge and a charger is
plugged into the unit, the batteries will charge.

9.0 CHARGING
Slide the Power switch (8) to the Off/Charge position and plug in the
charger. The Power LED (4) will blink red while the unit is fast charging.
The Power LED will blink amber when slow (trickle) charging. It will be
solid amber when the batteries are fully charged.
Note: If the charger is plugged in when the Power switch is the on
position, the batteries will be trickle charged during operation.
CAUTION: Use only the supplied PR-Universal charger with the
sensor.
