Object present
Please refer to the enclosed "IO-Link photoelectric sensors" operating instructions for
information about adjusting the IO-Link sensing range.
Mode M (Manual/Measurement) can only be selected and set using IO-Link.
The blue LED for mode M lights up when the device is used in measuring mode or when
additional settings are made that differ from standard modes 1-6.
The sensor should be aligned according to the respective basic mode. If in measuring
mode, the sensor is aligned with the object to be measured without having to observe
additional boundary conditions such as a preferred direction.
NOTE
How to output a distance value is also shown in a video:
Please refer to the enclosed "IO-Link photoelectric sensors" operating instructions for
information about adjusting the IO-Link sensing range.
IO-Link
The sensor can be used in standard I/O mode (SIO) or IO-Link mode (IOL). All auto‐
mation functions and other parameter settings are effective in IO-Link mode and in
standard I/O mode. Output of binary switching signals in standard I/O mode via pin
4 / black wire and via pin 2 / white wire.
