ON.
This unexpected behavior can be easily corrected b
y
touching the main electrode (forcing over driven state –
LED3 ON) for
at least 4s when the relay goes OFF and the sensor recovers the op-
erational state as soon as the electrode stay free again (untouched).
2.3.3 Indication Elements
LED1
Is active during the measurement process. Its activity allows an approximated idea of the
signal intensity of the sensor electrodes caused by an object in the detection area.
● Slow blinking (1/s) : The sensor is free or only slightly occupied.
● Moderated blinking (2/s) : The sensor is moderately busy.
● Fast blinking (4/s) : The sensor is heavily occupied.
● Always ON (1) : The sensor is over-shoot
and near or over the limit of the
measurement range (see also LED3).
LED2
Indicates how long t
he push button (SW1) is
pressed:
0 s ... 2 s →
LED2 OFF
2 s …3 s →
LED2
ON
> 5 s →
LED2
OFF and
LED4
ON
LED3
Lights up when the sensitivity range is exceeded (clipping).
LED4
Indicates the error status or the adjustment process:
● Slowly blinking (1/s) : The sensor unit is in the adjustment mode.
● Always ON (1) :
The unit is in the error state and cannot work. In this case a restart
or re-calibration is necessary.
LED5
Lights up when the relay is switched ON (sensor electrode busy).
LED6
Is the <in operation> indicator and lights up when the supply voltage is switched ON.
2.4 Installation
2.4.1 Starting manual adjustment - switch SW2-2 to "OFF"
The adjustment evaluates and saves the reference value of the system.
!
The sensor electrodes must be free when performing a new adjustment! No objects or
person may be near the sensor electrodes.
SW2
-
2 = OFF:
(Memory OFF)
After power ON, the evaluation unit automatically starts a calibration process.
SW2-2 = ON:
(Memory active)
The unit starts without adjustment. The operating parameters are restored from
memory and they are exactly the same ones when the unit was powered DOWN.
New adjustment can be done by pressing the SW1 button for more than 5s.
LED2 provides information on the elapsed time when pressing SW1: After 2s, it
lights UP and after 5s it goes OFF again.
The following applies to the adjustment :
– During the calibration process, LED4 blinks slowly.
– The calibration process has been successfully completed when LED4 stays
OFF and LED1 blinks
slowly.
–
If no bias point can be found during the adjustment, the evaluation unit changes to the error state.
This is indicated by the constant
lighting of LED4. The error state must then be corrected and a
new adjustment must then be carried out.
– An adjustment process can take up to 60 seconds.
Regardless of the setting of SW2-2, an adjustment process can be done at any time by pressing the
SW1 button at least for 5s.
2.4.2 Sensitivity setting (relay switching point)
!
To guaranty safe functionality, the sensitivity should only be set as high as necessary!
The setting of the sensitivity with SW1 takes place basically with the smallest objects that
enters on the detection area. When setting, the object to be recognized must stay in the de-
tection area.
Attention: People must not be near the sensor electrode!
