The Range advanced measurement behavior is affected by the Loss of Signal option. For additional information on advanced
measurements, see Trigger on p. 14. The Range advanced measurement tracks a maximum and a minimum during the
measurement period, and calculates the range as follows:
Range = maximum distance – minimum distance
If the maximum and/or minimum measurements are outside of the taught range values, the Loss of Signal option determines
how the range is calculated.
Option Sensor Behavior in Range Mode
0 V (4 mA) If the maximum or minimum measurement is outside of the taught range values, the sensor
outputs 0 V (4 mA) to indicate an out of range measurement.
10.5 V (20.5 mA) If the maximum or minimum measurement is outside of the taught range values, the sensor
outputs 10.5 V (20.5 mA) to indicate an out of range measurement.
Hold The sensor limits the maximum and minimum measurements so that they cannot exceed the
taught range values.
3.1.8 Input Wire Function
Use this menu to select the input wire function. The default is off, ignore all remote input pulses.
• —Ignore all remote input pulses
• —Remote TEACH input
• —Laser off when pulled low
•
—Laser on when pulled low
• —Master sync line output for two-sensor cross-talk avoidance
• —Slave sync line input for two-sensor cross-talk avoidance
• —Trigger mode for advanced measurements (see Trigger on p. 14)
To configure sensors for master-slave operation, see Sync Master/Slave on p. 21.
3.1.9 Trigger
The Trigger option sets the advanced measurement that is calculated when a trigger event is detected on the remote input.
The analog output updates with the new advanced measurement on each trigger event. To use these Trigger options, the
sensor Input Type option must be set to .
Trigger Submenus Description
Average
The averaged distance since the last trigger event. (default)
Range
The difference between the maximum and minimum distance since the last trigger event. For additional
information on the Range measurement behavior when the maximum or minimum distance is outside of the
taught values, see Loss of Signal on p. 13
.
Maximum
The maximum distance since the last trigger event.
Minimum
The minimum distance since the last trigger event.
TrackMax
The maximum distance since the last trigger event. The Analog Output tracks new maximum values during
the measurement period.
TrackMin
The minimum distance since the last trigger event. The Analog Output tracks new minimum values during
the measurement period.
Sample
The current distance at the time of the trigger event. The Analog Output tracks the sample values during the
measuring period.
