Overview
- Single push-button programming of advanced sensing options
- Five sensor configuration options:
- Static Teach
- Dynamic Teach
- Light Set
- Dark Set
- Window Set
- Five standard sensing modes:
- Visible diffuse
- Infrared diffuse
- Convergent
- Polarized retroreflective
- Plastic fiber optic
- Configurable output options: Light Operate or Dark Operate and a 30 ms off delay
- 10 to 30 VDC operation with 100 mA NPN or PNP output, depending on model
- Teach wire input for remote configuration of the sensor
- Push-button lock-out to prevent accidental configuration changes
- Bright LED status indicators visible from 360°
