OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS en
1 Intended use
The optical OL1 micrometer must be used in conjunction with evaluation unit
AOD1.
Up to two sets of OL1 measurement sensors can be configured and controlled
with the evaluation unit.
CAUTION
Optical radiation: Laser class 1
The accessible radiation does not pose a danger when viewed directly for up
to 100 seconds. It may pose a danger to the eyes and skin in the event of
incorrect use.
•Do not open the housing. Opening the housing may increase the level of
risk.
•Current national regulations regarding laser protection must be
observed.
2 About this document

3.3 Alignment of sender - receiver (“direction checking”)
The receiver has two alignment LEDs to correctly assembly and align the sensor
heads. To use the alignment LEDs, the Direction Checking function in the
AOD1 menu must be activated.
1. Keep pressing until an arrow appears in front of Head 1 or 2
(depending on where the OL1 is connected).
2. Press
A
to get to the Top Menu.
3. Press to select Setup mode.
4. Press to display Direction Checking.
5. Press to select ON.
6. Complete with
A
.
✓ON is bracketed.
✓The alignment LEDs are flashing.
7. Align sensor heads so that both LEDs light up, but do not flash.
°If no LED lights up on the receiver: Align sensor heads to one another.
°When the red LED flashes: Move receiver upwards until both LEDs light
up.
°When the green LED flashes: Move receiver downwards until both LEDs
light up.

“Edge” detection application
•Measure the edge position relating to the measuring range center of the light
band with leading edge detection see AOD1 display and OL1, page 1.
•When more than one edge is in the measuring range, the device cannot
measure and show the value 9.999 (background remains black).
“Edge” detection application for transparent objects
NOTE
Safe edge detection is not guaranteed for very transparent objects (in the
range from about 80% transmission).
•The function works the same as for edge detection of non-transparent
objects.
•The “Adjusted” value must be set in the “Sensitivity” setting for edge detec‐
tion of transparent objects. For optimal sensitivity adjustment, there must be
no measuring object between the sender and the receiver see OL1 “Setup
mode” configuration menu, page 2.
•The direction from which the object protrudes into the measuring range must
be specified in the "Measure polarity" menu item see “Measure polarity”
direction function, page 2.
“Width” and diameter measurement application
•Measures the distance between two edges.
•In this measurement type, the device shows the measured value of
0.000 mm to 9.999 mm.
•The device distinguishes between light-dark and dark-light edges. Then the
width function can measure both the width and the gap.
•In “Width” mode, there must always be exactly two edges inside the measur‐
ing range. If there are more than two edges inside the measuring range, the
output measured values are not specified.
8022330/0000/2018-05-09/en OL1 | SICK 2
•If there is no or only one edge in the measuring range, the device shows an
alarm or “cannot be measured”.
•The direction function (Measure polarity) does not work for width mea‐
surement.

8 Cleaning
NOTICE
Equipment damage due to improper cleaning.
Improper cleaning may result in equipment damage.
•Only use recommended cleaning agents.
•Never use sharp objects for cleaning.
Clean the front screens at regular intervals and in the event of contamina‐
tion with a lint-free lens cloth (part no. 4003353) and plastic cleaning agent
(part no. 5600006). The cleaning interval essentially depends on the ambi‐
ent conditions.
