    What to do if Leuze MLD 300 display error U51?
    • S
      Stephanie MillerSep 12, 2025
      If the Leuze Security Sensors display error U51, only one muting signal is active during a protective field violation, and the second muting signal is missing. Check the mounting of the muting sensors and the triggering of the muting signals.

    What does it mean if LED2 on the receiver (with MLD 500/AS-i) is red on Leuze Security Sensors?
    • L
      Lawrence MurilloSep 18, 2025
      If LED2 on the receiver (with MLD 500/AS-i) on Leuze Security Sensors is red, it indicates that the AS-i slave is not communicating with the AS-i master. Check the connection of the AS-i master with the AS-i slave, correct the AS-i address of the AS-i slave, or correctly set the AS-i profile in the AS-i master.

    What to do if LED1 on the receiver is green and slowly flashing (approx. 1 Hz) on Leuze Security Sensors?
    • O
      owhiteSep 5, 2025
      If LED1 on the receiver of Leuze Security Sensors is green and slowly flashing (approx. 1 Hz), it indicates a weak signal due to soiling or misalignment. Clean the front screen and check the alignment of the transmitter and receiver.

    What to do if Leuze MLD 300 display error E19?
    • A
      Anthony McdanielSep 6, 2025
      If the Leuze Security Sensors display error E19, it means a foreign transmitter has been detected. Remove any foreign transmitters and increase the distance to reflective surfaces.

    What to do if LED2 on the receiver (with MLD 500/AS-i) is yellow and flashing on Leuze Security Sensors?
    • C
      Catherine DodsonSep 18, 2025
      If LED2 on the receiver (with MLD 500/AS-i) on Leuze Security Sensors is yellow and flashing, it indicates that the AS-i slave has an invalid address 0. Assign the AS-i slave a valid address.
