7.6.14.3 Signal level
The signal level corresponds to the amount of light received by the receiver optics of
the device. This is a dimensionless value. It depends mainly on the distance to the
measuring object and on the surface of the measuring object (color, roughness/reflec‐
tivity, angle to the optical axis). For the device to measure the distance correctly, the
signal level must not fall below a certain value. This value depends on the configured
measurement cycle time.
7.6.14.4 Device Access Locks
The Device Access Locks function can be used to limit access to the device.
Block Description
Local parameterization The device is locked and cannot be operated.
This applies both to the use of the display but‐
tons and to inputs via the In1 input.
Local user interface
The “Device Access Locks” function is based on the IO-Link specification (version
1.1.3).
It can be configured via SOPAS ET, “Basic settings” or via IO-Link, index12 (0x0c)
“Device access locks”.
