    What to do if the bar graph and yellow edge LED indicator are flashing on my SICK Accessories?

      Ian GarrettAug 5, 2025
      If the bar graph and yellow edge LED indicator are flashing, it could indicate a short-circuit or overcurrent. Disconnect the sensor from the power network and check the current at the switching output. Also, ensure the sensor is connected properly by checking the pin assignment and reconnecting the sensor if necessary.

      Tyler ThomasAug 11, 2025
      If there is no switching event, the distance or angle to the material might not be consistent. Try cleaning the sensor and readjusting it. You should also check the parameter settings and perform the teach process again.

    What to do if bar graph, yellow edge LED, and teach-in LEDs are flashing on SICK Accessories?
    • K

      If the bar graph, yellow edge LED indicator, and teach-in LEDs are flashing, the programmed contrast or contrast difference may not be sufficient for stable contrast detection. Try cleaning the sensor, readjusting the sensor, and checking the application conditions. You might also need to restart the teach process or increase the contrast difference (sensitivity).

    Why position value of SICK Accessories does not correspond to the actual value?
    • E
      Emily WalkerAug 23, 2025
      If the position value does not correspond to the actual value, the sensing distance might be incorrect. Try to realign the sensor.

      If an edge is detected even though there is no object in the field of view, the sensor may be dirty. Clean the sensor.
