The ultrasonic sensor features an analogue output with two teachable evaluation limits. These are set by applying the supply
voltage -UB or +UB to the TEACH-IN input. The supply voltage must be applied to the TEACH-IN input for at least 1 s. LEDs
indicate whether the sensor has recognised the target during the TEACH-IN procedure. The lower evaluation limit A1 is taught
with -UB, A2 with +UB.
Two different output functions can be set:
1. Analogue value increases with rising distance to object (rising ramp)
2. Analogue value falls with rising distance to object (falling ramp)
TEACH-IN rising ramp (A2 > A1)
- Position object at lower evaluation limit
- TEACH-IN lower limit A1 with - UB
- Position object at upper evaluation limit
- TEACH-IN upper limit A2 with + UB
TEACH-IN falling ramp (A1 > A2):
- Position object at lower evaluation limit
- TEACH-IN lower limit A2 with + UB
- Position object at upper evaluation limit
- TEACH-IN upper limit A1 with - UB
Default setting
A1: unusable area
A2: nominal sensing range
Mode of operation: rising ramp
LED Displays
Installation conditions
If the sensor is installed at places, where the environment temperature can fall below 0 °C, for the sensors fixation, one of the
mounting flanges BF18, BF18-F or BF 5-30 must be used.
In case of direct mounting of the sensor in a through hole using the steel nuts, it has to be fixed at the middle of the housing
thread. If a fixation at the front end of the threaded housing is required, plastic nuts with centering ring (accessories) must be
used.
