Configuration Steps
Menu Item Default Parameters and Functions
English/Metric English Choose English or Metric units.
Encoder Scale 1:1 Choose 1:1 or 1:2 encoder scale. Determines unit of movement per encoder
pulse. If set to 1:2, encoder signal is split so that one unit of movement is
equal to two encoder pulses, allowing finer resolution and more precise
triggering.
Clocking
Method
Encoder Choose Encoder or Timer. Timer is an internal clock. If you choose Timer,
the conveyor interlock is automatically enabled and cannot be disabled. The
conveyor interlock circuit must be connected when the timer is used.
User Conveyor
Speed
0.0 ft/min
or m/min
Enter speed of conveyor, in feet or meters per minute. Used for Timer
operation only, do not set if encoder is used.
Encoder Alarm Time 5.0 The Encoder Alarm can function in either of two ways, depending on how the
External Interlock menu item is set:
External Interlock Enabled: The encoder alarm is a delay (in seconds)
between the time the encoder stops pulsing and when an alarm message
appears on the display. Do not set this value to zero; doing so will cause the
trigger controller to malfunction. To disable the alarm set this value to a large
number.
External Interlock Disabled: The encoder alarm function is an encoder
pulsing stopped monitor. Refer to Encoder Pulsing Stopped Monitor for
setup instructions.
Sensor Alarm Time 90.0 Enter number of seconds after last sensor signal is received before alarm
message appears. Indicates sensor fault or photoeye-to-reflector
misalignment.
