Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about our products and services
Signal processing is integrated in the device. Still select suitable power, connections and output path for the control system.
No. Programs include gap, edge, center axis and segments. Configure the measurement program and search directions for the task.
The document lists up to eight segments and 16 edges simultaneously. These are object/edge counts, not separate sensor input channels.
Through a web interface showing video signal, values, limits and filters. Match settings to target position and measurement program.
No. A transmitter creates a parallel light curtain and the receiver measures interruption. Provide optical access on both sides and suitable mechanical clearance.
