OUTPUT LED
The red LED indicates the output status.
READY LED
During functioning, the green LED permanently ON indicates a normal
operating condition; fast blinking indicates an output overload condition.
See the “SETTING” paragraph for setup procedure indications.
MARK / BKGD PUSHBUTTON
The pushbutton activates the setup procedure.
INSTALLATION
Operating distance is rated
starting from the lens front face.
The M12 connector or cable exit
can be rotated in three positions
by loosening the locking screw.
Tighten the locking screw when
finished.
The beam direction may be
changed swapping the cap and
the lens.
Detecting marks on a reflective surface is improved adjusting the beam
direction to 5° … 20° from surface axis.
CONNECTIONS
* = Connect the unused REMOTE wires to 0 V.
** = The cable shield is insulated from the sensor housing; it is recommended
to connect the shield to 0 V.

operating mode; the switch allows to select the output type (NPN or
PNP).
FUNCTION SELECTION
When FORMAT is
selected (configuration
selector section 1), the
MARK and BKGD
puskbuttons are enabled and connecting the REMOTE inputs (TLm-xx1)
to the power supply as shown in the table allows to select up to 4
different settings (formats). This is the factory setting.
If a non-set format is selected, the sensor is disabled and the green LED
flashes at a low rate.
A setting can be stored selecting a format and executing the procedure
described in the “SETTING” paragraph.
When SET is selected (configuration selector section 1), the MARK and
BKGD pushbuttons are disabled; the REMOTE inputs (TLm-x1x) replace
the pushbuttons functionality.
Connecting the REMOTE A and B inputs to the positive power supply
rail is equivalent to pressing the MARK and BKGD pushbuttons
respectively. Connect the unused inputs to 0V.
TIMING FUNCTION
When ON is selected
(configuration selector
section 2), a delay timer
function is enabled which
extends the minimum ON
output time to 20 ms. The factory setting is OFF (timer disabled).
SETTING
A two-step setup procedure adjusts the switching threshold and the
LIGHT/DARK mode. Using the procedure given below the sensor output
is set to be ON when a mark is detected.
1) Output ON state acquisition (MARK)
Place the target mark into the emission spot and press the MARK
pushbutton until the green LED turns OFF.
Don’t move the mark during the setting phase (about 1 sec).
2) Output OFF state acquisition (BKGD)
Place the background into the emission spot and press the BKGD
pushbutton; the green LED blinks once.
Don’t move the background during the setting phase.
If the green LED lights permanently ON, a safe operation has been
obtained; if it flashes at a low rate the setup procedure has failed due to
insufficient contrast; repeat the procedure from the beginning.
