If the wires are short-circuited the “Code A, Yellow LED” flashes at a rate of 2 Hz. If the wires are broken the “Code A, Yellow LED” flashes at a rate of 4 Hz. ## **Emitter fault** During normal operation the emitter is monitored for faults. If the wires are short-circuited the “Code B, Green LED” flashes at a rate of 2 Hz. If the wires are broken the “Code B, Green LED” flashes at a rate of 4 Hz. ## **Alignment** If the alignment DIP switch is set the Yellow Signal LED Flashes according to the signal quality. Low frequency means weak signal. Steady indication means maximum signal. On long distance it is not possible to get a steady signal but the alignment is optimal when the led flashes with the highest frequency. On short distance the sensitivity can be reduced using the potentiometer and then get better readings in the alignment LED. The ALARM output will follow the Signal LED in alignment mode, so a Sensor tester (optional) can be connected to serve as a remote indication during alignment of the sensors. **NB!** In alignment mode the output is off. ## **Code A or B** When two sensor pairs are mounted close to each other it is recommended to select one set to Code A and the other to Code B to minimize crosstalk. ## **Dirt reserve** For optimal detection excess gain settings can be selected using the Level Low/High DIP switch: • High: Allows high dirt build-up. • Low: Allows detection of semi-transparent objects. ## **Power settings** To avoid a too strong emitter the power can be reduced to 50% reducing the max distance to 25% ## **O eration Dia ram p g** **==> picture [497 x 180] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Signal strength<br>Weak attenuation<br>Level<br>Switch<br>ta = Alarm delay (5s)<br>tv = Power ON delay (0.3s)<br>Power supply<br>Object present, light beam interrupted<br>Signal quality (yellow LED)<br>Alarm (red LED) tA tA<br>Output ON: Break switching pin 1,3 [2)]<br>Make switching pin 1,3 [2)] tv tv<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> > 2) ~~Switching function selected by DIP-switch, inverted function on pin 1, 4~~ **2** Specifications are subject to change without notice (18.09.2013) **S142C..** ## **Mode of O eration p** A multiplexed system consists ger signal out) to pin 11 (trigof 1 master amplifier which ger signal in).

When a component is unavailable, discontinued or has an unacceptable lead time, we tap into our network of vetted European and Asian distributors to source what you need — without compromising on quality or traceability.
Request a quote →Compliant Alternatives
We identify pin-to-pin, electrically equivalent substitutes that meet the same certifications (RoHS, AEC-Q100, REACH) as your original specification — validated against datasheets, not just part numbers. Often at a lower cost.
