## Chapter 3 Configuring a Sensor 

The K50 Pro Optical Sensor has three Teach modes. These modes are indicated with a Teach Status color. 

The Signal Level color flashes in between the Teach Status color. The color of the Signal Level depends on the signal strength of the target: 

Green: Best signal, accepts Teach Yellow: Acceptable signal, can accept Teach Red: Poor signal, rejects Teach 

## Remote Input 

Use the remote input to program the sensor remotely. 

The remote input provides limited programming options and is Active High in PNP mode (V+ to brown wire), or Active Low in NPN mode (V+ to blue wire). For Active High, pulse the gray or yellow input wire to V+ (10 V DC to 30 V DC). For Active Low, pulse the gray or yellow input wire to ground (0 V DC). 

The remote input wire is enabled by default. Pulse the remote input wire 7 times or use the Banner Pro Editor software to enable or disable the feature. When the remote input feature is enabled, pulse the remote input according to the diagram and the instructions provided in this manual. Remote teach can also be performed using the button on the Pro Converter Cable. 

The length of the individual programming pulses is equal to the value T: 0.04 seconds ≤ T ≤ 0.8 seconds . 

Exit remote programming modes by cycling power or by waiting for 30 seconds. 

NOTE: If a factory reset is performed through the Banner Pro Editor Software, the remote input wire becomes enabled (factory default setting). If the sensor is returned to factory defaults by using the remote input wire, the input wire remains enabled and the rest of the settings are restored to factory defaults. 

## Remote Teach 

Use the following procedure to teach the Set Point. 

1. Pulse the remote input: 

   - 3x - Object Teach: The indicator alternates between a blue Teach Status color and the Signal Level color. 

   - 4x - Background Teach: The indicator alternates between a magenta Teach Status color and the Signal Level color. 

   - 5x - Window Teach: The indicator alternates between a cyan Teach Status color and the Signal Level color. 

2. Present the Set Point. 

3. Teach the Set Point.

## Teach Modes and Operation 

## Object Mode (default) 

Teach Status Color: Blue 

The K50 Pro Optical Sensor is configured to Object Mode by default. Object Mode sets the total Detection Area from the sensor to the Set Point plus the Offset Value (50 mm default). Use Object Mode to trigger a change in state when an object is present between the sensor minimum (20 mm default) and the taught distance plus the offset. 

Three-pulse the remote input to enable Object Mode. Successfully entering Object Mode causes the device to alternate between the Teach Status color (Blue) and the Signal Level color.

## Background Mode 

Teach Status Color: Magenta 

Background Mode sets the total Detection Area from the sensor to the Set Point minus the Offset Value (50 mm default). Use Background Mode when there is a constant background object present and a state change is desired when another object is in front of that background. 

Four-pulse the remote input to enable Background Mode. Successfully entering Background Mode causes the device to alternate between the Teach Status color (Magenta) and the Signal Level color.

## Window Mode 

Teach Status Color: Cyan 

Window Mode centers the total Detection Area at the Set Point plus and minus the Offset Value (50 mm default). Configuring a window near the minimum and maximum ranges shifts this window to ensure that it maintains this value. Use Window Mode when a change in state is desired within a specific narrow area, and not when outside this area. 

Five-pulse the remote input to enable Window Mode. Successfully entering Window Mode causes the device to alternate between the Teach Status color (Cyan) and the Signal Level color.

## Reset the Sensor to Factory Defaults 

Reset the sensor to factory default settings using one of two methods. 

NOTE: If a factory reset is performed through the Banner Pro Editor software, the remote input wire becomes disabled (factory default setting). If the sensor is returned to factory default settings by using the remote input wire, the input wire remains enabled and the rest of the settings are restored to factory defaults. 

## Reset Using the Banner Pro Editor Software 

Go to Sensor › Factory Reset . The sensor indicators flash once, the sensor is reset back to the factory default settings, and a confirmation message displays. 

## Reset Using the Remote Input 

Nine-pulse the remote input to reset the device to factory default settings. The device then flashes white on success. 

Pulse the remote input once more to apply the factory defaults.

Alternate Modes through Pro Editor 

## Distance 

Set the device to operate as a gauge, which allows the user to configure a background color and a fill color to display how far an object is within the Detection Area. 

As an object moves along the sensing range, the proportion of fill color to background color changes in a clockwise (CW) or counter-clockwise (CCW) direction. The proportion of fill color increases as an object approaches the maximum range, and decreases as it moves towards the minimum.
