USER MANUAL OL5041 IFM

LEDs red, yellow, green yellow LED push button receiver transmitter green LEDSetting the switching threshold (dynamic operation)

• Moving objects in the detection area The unit detects input signals of various intensity in any sequence and calculates the optimum switching threshold. If the setting of the switching threshold is not possible (e.g. object signal and background signal are about the same), the red LED flashes after step 3. The unit then passes into the operating mode with the switching signal being un- changed. If the programming button is not activated for 15 minutes during the pro- gramming process, the unit passes automatically into the operating mode with the switching threshold being unchanged. Setting of the maximum sensitivity:

• Go into the programming mode (step 1).

• Interrupt the light beam.

• Press the setting button twice (see steps 2 and 3).

Press until the red LED flashes Yellow and green LED’s flash alternately (= unit is in the programming mode).

Press once. Allow the objects to pass through the detection area.

Press once. The yellow and green LED’s go out for approx. 1 s, then flash again alternately. The yellow and green LED’s go out for approx. 1s, then the green LED is on (= unit is in operating mode).Setting the switching threshold (stationary operation)

• Stationary objects The unit detects input signals of various intensity in any sequence and calculates the optimum switching threshold. *You can also proceed in reverse order: first setting without the object, then with the object. If the setting of the switching threshold is not possible (e.g. object signal and background signal are about the same), the red LED flashes after step 3. The unit then passes into the operating mode with the switching signal being un- changed. If the programming button is not activated for 15 minutes during the pro- gramming process, the unit passes automatically into the operating mode with the switching threshold being unchanged. Setting of the maximum sensitivity:

• Go into the programming mode (step 1).

• Interrupt the light beam.

• Press the setting button twice (see steps 2 and 3).

Press until the red LED flashes. Yellow and green LED’s flash alternately (= unit is in the programming mode).

Press once. Place the object into the detection area *

Press once. Remove the object * The yellow and green LED’s go out for approx. 1 s, then flash again alternately. The yellow and green LED’s go out for approx. 1s, then the green LED is on (= unit is in operating mode). 8Programming the output function Operation Check the safe functioning of the diffuse reflection sensor. Display by LED’s. Maintenance Keep the plastic lenses of the sensor free from soiling. For cleaning do not use any solvents or cleaning agents which could damage the plastic lenses.
