SICK MLG-2 ProNet - Parameters for Definition of Operating Mode and Performance Options

7.4.2 Parameters for definition of operating mode and performance options
7.4.2.1 Operating mode
NOTE
This chapter is only relevant for the FBM-P22.
Table 84: Operating mode
Index Access Data type Description
60h R/W ENUM8 This parameter sets the MLG-2 to the respec‐
tive operating mode.
0 = standard
1 = transparent
2 = dust- and sunlight-resistant
The MLG-2 has the following operating modes:
•
Standard
For normal measuring tasks involving opaque objects (recommended for the
majority of applications)
•
Transparent
For transparent objects, e.g., made of glass, PET, etc.
•
Dust- and sunlight-resistant
For applications when there is a large amount of dust in the environment or a high
level of solar radiation
NOTE
When the operating mode is changed, a new teach-in process must be performed.
7.4.2.2 Performance options
Table 85: Performance options
Index Access Data type Description
61h R/W ENUM8 This parameter specifies the performance
options of the MLG-2.
0 = standard measurement accuracy
1 = high measurement accuracy
2 = high operating reserve
3 = cross-beam function
4 = cross-beam function with high operating
reserve
5 = high-speed scan
6 = high-speed scan with high measurement
accuracy
7 = high-speed scan with high operating
reserve
Standard measurement accuracy
In order for an object to be detected, it must completely cover at least one beam (see
"Minimum detectable object with parallel-beam function", page 20).
