Ultrasonic sensors in the lcs series in cuboidal housing with lateral sound exit are available in three device variants with three different detection ranges.
Highlights
Up to 3 pnp switching outputs
Automatic synchronisation for simultaneous operation of up to ten sensors in close quarters
Basics
2 or 3 switching outputs in pnp variant
microsonic Teach-in on pin 5
0.18 mm resolution
Temperature compensation
9–30 V operating voltage
LinkControl for configuration of sensors from a PC
Description
The lcs sensors
have a block-like plastic housing with four fixation bores, two of which are already equipped with M4 threaded bushings for eased mounting.
Two or three LEDs
indicate all operating statuses.
Via pin 5 at the M12 circular connector,
(Com input), the Ics sensors are set (Teach-in): Switched output D1 is set by connecting pin 5 to +UB, while switched output D2 is set by connecting pin 5 to –UB. Also the sensors with analogue output are set via pin 5.
The Ics sensors with switched output offer three operating modes:
Single switching point
Two-way reflective barrier
Window mode
Teach-in of a single switching point
Place object to be detected (1) at the desired distance
Apply +UB to pin 5 for about 3 seconds
Then apply +UB to pin 5 again for about 1 seconds
Teach-in of a two-way reflective barrier
with a fixed reflector
Apply +UB to pin 5 for about 3 seconds
Then apply +UB to pin 5 again for about 10 seconds
For configuration of a window
Place object at the near edge of the window (1)
Apply +UB to pin 5 for about 3 seconds
Then move the object to the far edge of the window (2)
Then apply +UB to pin 5 again for about 1 seconds
