  • Polarity Protected

Current Requirements:

  • 85mA (exclusive of load)

Output Transistors:

  • (1) NPN and (1) PNP output transistor
  • NPN: Sink up to 150mA
  • PNP: Source up to 150mA
  • Momentary short circuit protected
  • Output transistors turn “ON” when mark is in view

Response Time
Minimum duration of input event

  • Light state response: 50 microseconds
  • Dark state response: 140 microseconds
  • Leading edge variation: less than 20 microseconds

Hysteresis:

  • Less than 400 millivolts for maximum sensitivity and resolution

OFFSET/EDR® Clutch Knob Adjustment

  • Sets initial level on Contrast Indicator in relation to mid-scale switch point of 5 – functions as sensitivity adjustment
  • Controls Enhanced Dynamic Range circuit (EDR®) which functions to avoid glare effect

LIGHT/DARK Switch:

  • Dark position for dark mark; Light position for light mark

Indicators:

  • OUTPUT INDICATOR - Red LED illuminates when output transistors are “ON”
  • EDR INDICATOR – Intensity of Green LED provides indication of where in the dynamic operating range the offset / EDR adjustment has been set FULLY LIT: Operating near saturation OFF: Operating near maximum sensing range
  • CONTRAST INDICATOR –Displays returned contrasting light levels (background vs. mark)

Light Immunity:

  • Pulse modulated to provide extremely high immunity to ambient light
