7.6.12.2 Distance Preset
A preset is used to specify a customer-specific initialization value at an initialization
position as a distance output value. This is helpful, for example, during commissioning,
maintenance or device replacement. The automatically calculated distance offset value
is permanently saved in the device. Triggering the preset overwrites a previously availa‐
ble distance offset. The following applies at the initialization position:
Preset (distance output value) = measured distance value + distance offset
The Distance Preset can be triggered via the input signal (In1) or manually.
Parameter Values Factory setting
Preset value 0mm … 80,000mm 0mm
Manual preset Active/Inactive Inactive
7.6.13 Info
The menu provides access to the following information:
•
IO counter: Counter for switching operations
•
HW: Hardware version
•
SW: Software version
•
IO-Link: IO-Link version
•
Baud rate: Data transmission rate
IO-Counter displays the number of triggered switching operations for Q1 and Q2. The
counter in the menu can be reset either manually or automatically after each power-up.
7.6.14 Other functions
7.6.14.1 Switching the laser off/on
It is possible to switch off the measuring laser. No measurement is possible when the
laser is switched off.
The Sender off function can be used to switch off the laser via the In1 input. The laser
switches off as soon as the switching condition is met and remains switched off until it
is no longer met.
The laser can also be switched on and off via IO-Link, SOPAS ET, and the device menu
(Device> Laser control). If the voltage supply to the device is interrupted during that time,
the laser remains switched off afterwards.
7.6.14.2 Find device! function (Find device)
The Find device! function can be used to locate a device that has been installed, for
example, in a plant. When the function is activated, the green LNK LED flashes with a
frequency of 1Hz.
When the function is used, correct distance measurement is not possible. If the device
is switched off and on again while the function is active, the Find device! function will no
longer be active.
The function can be activated via SOPAS ET in the “Device information” area or via
IO-Link, index204 (0xcc) “Find device!”.
