3 Functions and features
The unit is used as an optical distance sensor.
3.1 Applications
• The optical distance sensor measures distances between 0.2 and 10 m.
- It has a background suppression at > 10...100 m.
- The measured value is shown in a 10-segment display.
- According to the set output functions 2 output signals can be generated.
4 Functions
4.1 Output function hysteresis
The hysteresis keeps the switching state of the output stable if the measured value varies about the sensing range. Both outputs (OUT1 and OUT2) can be set as hysteresis function. → 10.2.4 Hysteresis function
4.2 Output function window
The window function enables the monitoring of a defined acceptable range. Both outputs (OUT1 and OUT2) can be set as window function. → 10.2.6 Window function
4.3 Analogue output function
The sensor can also output an analogue signal on output 2 (OUT2) which is proportional to the distance. → 10.2.11 Scaling of the measuring range (analogue output)
4.4 Switch off the laser
For safety and maintenance purposes the laser of the unit can be temporarily switched off via the input on pin 5.
| Input signal at pin 5 | Laser |
| Low / not connected | On |
| High | Off |
5 Installation
5.1 Installation conditions
▶ Install the unit so that the object to be detected is within a measuring range of 0.2...10 m.
The unambiguity range of the sensor is fixed to 100 m. Objects within a range > 10...100 m are suppressed.

Reflecting objects in the direct beam path of the sensor - also in the range ▷ 100 m – are to be avoided by the customer. Otherwise the measured values may be ambiguous.
5.2 Mounting accessories
The unit is supplied without mounting accessories.

6.1 Operation with IO-Link master
The unit is compatible with IO-Link master port class A (type A).

For operation with IO-Link master port class B (type B) observe the following:
As a standard, the unit is not compatible with master port class B (type B).
Pin 2 (OU2) and pin 5 (IN1) are used for manufacturer-specific functions.
That means that the main supply voltage of the unit and the additional voltage supply (master port class B on pins 2/5) are not electrically isolated.
With the following configurations the unit can be used with master port class B:
- Connect unit and IO-Link master via 3 wires: Connect pins 1, 3 and 4 of the unit with the IO-Link master (do not connect pins 2 and 5).
- Connect unit and IO-Link master via 4 wires: Deactivate pin 2 (OU2) via IO-Link (setting OU2 = "off") and connect pins 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the unit with the IO-Link master (do not connect pin 5).

Selection of the unit of measurement: [mm], [m], [inch] ▶ Confirm with [MODE/ENTER]. ▷ The selected unit is indicated by a green LED on the display. | Uni |
10.2.2 Setting of the display
| ▶ Change to [EF]. ▶ Select [diS] and make the settings.7 settings can be selected:·[d1] = update of the measured value every 50 ms.·[d2] = update of the measured value every 200 ms.·[d3] = update of the measured value every 600 ms.·[rd1], [rd2], [rd3] = display like [d1], [d2], [d3] rotated by 180°. The update of the measured value only refers to the display. It has no effect on the outputs.·[OFF] = The measured value display is deactivated in the Run mode. Press one button to indicate the current measured value for 15 s. ▶ Confirm with [MODE/ENTER]. The LEDs remain active even if the display is deactivated. | d, 5 |
10.2.3 Configuration of OUT1
| ▶ Select [OU1] and set the switching functions. Switching functions:• [Hno] = hysteresis function / normally open• [Hnc] = hysteresis function / normally closed• [Fno] = window function / normally open• [Fnc] = window function / normally closed▶ Confirm with [MODE/ENTER]. | OU 1 |
10.2.4 Hysteresis function
The hysteresis keeps the switching state of the output stable if the measured value varies about the sensing range. In either case set and reset points are symmetrically arranged around the selected switch point [SPx]. The hysteresis is the distance between set and reset points; it is calculated on the basis of the repeatability with a safety factor of 1.5. The calculation is based on the repeatability for max. 40 klux. → 10.3.3 Table repeatability and accuracy
Example Hno
- For the output function [Hno] the output switches when the object approaches and when the switch point (A) is reached.
- When the object is removed again, the output does not switch back before the reset point (B) is exceeded.
The reset point (B) is greater than the set point (A).

2

[SPx] = switch point; A = set point; B = reset point
When the output function [Hnc] was selected, set and reset point are reversed. The output is switched off when the object approaches. When the object is removed, the output switches on.
Switching status of the outputs
| Output function | Object distance (D) | Output status |
| [Hno] | D < [SPx] | Closed |
| D > [SPx] | Open | |
| [Hnc] | D < [SPx] | Open |
| D > [SPx] | Closed |
Example of output function [Hno]
Sampling rate 15 Hz, distance to the object 1200 mm, grey value (18 % remission):
Hysteresis = ± 8 mm (repeatability → 10.3.3 table) x factor 1.5 = 12 mm
- Reset point 1200 mm + (12 mm) = 1212 mm
- Set point 1200 mm - (12 mm) = 1188 mm
10.2.5 Setting of the switch point for hysteresis function OUT1
▶ Select the output function [Hno] or [Hnc] at [OU1].
▶ Confirm with [MODE/ENTER].
▶ Select [SP1] and set the switch point.
▶ Confirm with [MODE/ENTER].

10.2.6 Window function
It is possible to define a window for the object recognition for each of the two outputs (OUT1 / OUT2).
Switches off when the object is detected

[nSPx] = switch point "near"; [FSPx] = switch point "far"; FE = window
If the measured value is between the switch point "near" [nSPx] and the switch point "far" [FSPx], the output is open (when [OUx] = [Fnc]).
Switches when the object is detected

[nSPx] = switch point "near"; [FSPx] = switch point "far"; FE = window
If the measured value is between the switch point "near" [nSPx] and the switch point "far" [FSPx], the output is closed (when [OUx] = [Fno]).

11 IO-Link
11.1 General information
This unit has an IO-Link communication interface which requires an IO-Link-capable module (IO-Link master) for operation.
The IO-Link interface enables direct access to the sensor values and parameters and provides the possibility to set the parameters of the unit during operation.
In addition communication is possible via a point-to-point connection with a USB adapter cable.
You will find more detailed information about IO-Link at www.ifm.com.
11.2 Device-specific information
You will find the IODDs necessary for the configuration of the IO-Link device and detailed information about sensor values, diagnostic information and parameters in the overview table at www.ifm.com.
11.3 Parameter setting tools
You will find all necessary information about the required IO-Link hardware and software at www.ifm.com.
11.4 Extended functions
With IO-Link extended functions and measured data are available.
11.4.1 Teach function
The following teach functions are available:
- Teach on background
- Two-point teaching
The teach functions are described in detail in the IODD.
11.4.2 Object reflectivity
The object reflectivity is provided via the display and as process data value (PDV).

The object reflectivity can, for example, be used to detect sensor soiling.
12 Set-up / operation
▶ After mounting, wiring and programming check whether the unit operates correctly.
▷ If the unit has been correctly set up, the distance to the object is indicated.

13 Maintenance, repair and disposal
Faulty sensors must only be repaired by the manufacturer.
▶ Keep the front lens of the sensor free from soiling.
▶ After use dispose of the unit in an environmentally friendly way in accordance with the applicable national regulations.
