OMNI-BEAM Over view

Modular Design

OMNI-BEAM is a modular self-contained sensor. It is made up of a sensor head and a

power block; an optional plug-in timing logic module may be added easily. The three

modular components, sold separately, simply plug and bolt together — without

interwiring — to create a complete self-contained photoelectric sensor tailored to a

particular application’s exact sensing requirements.

The sensor lenses and modular components are all field-replaceable. OMNI-BEAM’s

modular design makes change-out of any component quick and easy.

Sensor Heads

A sensor head module is available for every sensing situation. Sensor heads bolt

directly onto the power block, and are fully gasketed for protection against

environmental elements. The D.A.T.A. self-diagnostic feature is standard on all OMNI-

BEAM sensor heads (except emitters and model OSBFAC). Select from most sensing

modes, with infrared or visible red, green or blue sensing beams available.

The power block determines the sensor operating voltage and also the sensor output

switch configuration. Models are available with a built-in 2 m (6.5') or 9 m (30')

cable, or with either Mini-style or Euro-style quick-disconnect (“QD”) plug-in cable

fittings. Emitter power blocks have no output circuitry.

Optional Timing Logic Modules

Timing logic may be added at any time, using one of three timing delay and pulse

logic modules. Installation is simple and quick; the logic modules simply slide into the

sensor head (see Figure 4). Program them for timing functions and ranges via four

DIP switches; each module includes easily accessible 15-turn clutched potentiometers

for accurate timing adjustments.

Sensor Head Programming

DIP Switch Settings

OMNI-BEAM sensor heads are field-programmable for four operating parameters. To

access the four programming DIP switches (see figure 5), remove the sensor block

from the power block.

Switch #1, Sensing Hysteresis

ON: Standard hysteresis.

OFF: Low hysteresis; should be used only when all sensing conditions remain

completely stable.

Hysteresis is an electronic sensor requirement that the amount of received light

needed to energize the sensor’s output not be equal to the amount needed to release

the output. This differential prevents the sensing output from “buzzing” or

“chattering” when the received light signal is at or near the sensing threshold level.

The standard setting should be used always, except for low-contrast applications

such as the detection of subtle differences in reflectivity.

Switch #2, Alarm Output Configuration

ON: Alarm output is normally open (it conducts with an alarm).

OFF: Alarm output is normally closed (the output opens during an alarm).

Normally closed mode (OFF) is recommended; it allows a system controller to

recognize a sensor power loss or an open sensor output as an alarm condition.

Normally open alarm mode (ON) should be used when the alarm outputs of multiple

OMNI-BEAMs are wired in parallel to a common alarm or alarm input.

Switch #3, Light or Dark Operate

ON: Dark Operate mode; the output energizes (after a time delay, if applicable) when

the received light level is less than the sensing threshold (4 or fewer D.A.T.A.

lights ON).

OFF: Light Operate mode; the sensor’s load output energizes (after a time delay, if

applicable) when the received light level is greater than the sensing threshold (5

or more D.A.T.A. lights ON).

Switch #4, Scale Factor for the D.A.T.A. Signal Strength Indicator Display

ON: Fine scale.

OFF: Standard scale.

This switch should always be OFF, except for close differential sensing situations (for

example, some color registration applications, which also require the Low hysteresis

setting/switch #1 OFF).

Factory Settings

The following are the factory program settings for OMNI-BEAM sensor head DIP

switches.

Switch #1: ON (Standard hysteresis)

Switch #2: OFF (Normally Closed alarm output)

Switch #3: OFF (Light Operate load output)

Switch #4: OFF (Standard Scale Factor for signal strength display)

Figure 6. OMNI-BEAM D.A.T.A. LEDs

Using the D.A.T.A. Sensor Self-Diagnostic Feature

Banner’s exclusive D.A.T.A. feature warns of marginal sensing conditions, usually

before a sensing failure occurs, by flashing one or more lights in its multiple-LED

array, and by sending a warning signal to the system logic controller (or directly to an

audible or visual alarm). The chart below describes the meanings of the possible

signals.

Flashing LED Problem Description

#1 Moisture Alert Severe moisture is inside the sensor head, caused by condensation or by entry of moisture when the

access cover is removed.

#2 High Temperature

Alert The temperature inside the sensor head exceeds +70°C (+158°F).

#3 Low Voltage

Overload Alert

Sensor supply voltage is below the minimum specified for the power block in use. Power block outputs

also shut down to prevent damage to the load(s) from low voltage.

DC power blocks OPBT2, OPBT2QD, or OPBT2QDH: Either the load output or the alarm output is

shorted. Both outputs will be inhibited, and the circuit will “retry” the outputs every 1/10 second. The

outputs automatically reset and function normally when the short is corrected.

#9 High Gain

Warning

The “dark” signal never goes below #4 on the display; decrease the Gain setting. There are two possible

causes:

1) The “dark” signal slowly increases and remains at the #4 level for a predetermined delay time,

commonly caused by a gradual increase of unwanted background reflections in reflective sensing

modes (such as diffuse or convergent). The alarm will reset as soon as the cause of the unwanted

light signal is removed, or if the Gain control setting is reduced to bring the “dark” condition below

the #4 level.

2) The “dark” signal does not fall below the #4 level during a sensing event. The alarm automatically

resets when the “dark” sensing level falls below the #4 level (accomplished by reducing the Gain

control setting and/or by removing the cause of unwanted light return in the “dark” condition).

#10 Low Gain Warning

The “light” signal never goes above #5 on the display; increase the Gain setting. There are two possible

causes:

1) The “light” signal slowly decreases to the #5 level and remains at that level for a predetermined

delay. This most commonly occurs in opposed or retroreflective sensing systems, caused by a

gradual decrease in light in the unblocked condition, due to obscured lenses or sensor

misalignment. The alarm will reset when the light signal strength exceeds the #5 level.

2) The “light” signal does not exceed the #5 level during a sensing event. The alarm automatically

resets when the “light” signal exceeds the #5 level (accomplished by increasing the GAIN control

setting and/or cleaning the lens and realigning the sensor).

#9 and #10 Low Contrast

Warning

The lights flash simultaneously to indicate inadequate optical contrast for reliable sensing (the “light”

condition is at the #5 level and the “dark” condition is at the #4 level). If this occurs, re-evaluate the

application to find ways to increase the differential between the “light” and “dark” conditions. The alarm

automatically resets when the “light” signal exceeds the #5 level and the “dark” signal falls below the #4

level.

OMNI-BEAM Sensor Heads

Sense and Load LED Indicators

The Sense LED indicates when a target has been sensed. When the sensor head is

programmed for Light Operate, it lights when the received light signal exceeds the #5

threshold. When programmed for Dark Operate, it lights when the received light

signal falls below the #5 threshold. See figure 7.

The Load indicator LED lights whenever the output is energized (after the timing

function, if applicable).

Measuring Excess Gain

OMNI-BEAM’s D.A.T.A. indicator display may be used to measure the excess gain and

contrast during sensing, installation, or maintenance.

Excess gain is a measurement of the amount of light energy falling on a photoelectric

sensor’s receiver, over and above the minimum amount needed to operate the

sensor’s amplifier. Excess gain is expressed as a ratio:

Excess gain (E.G.) = light energy falling on receiver

amplifier threshold

The amplifier threshold is the point at which the sensor’s output switches

(corresponding to the #5 level of the D.A.T.A. display). When LEDs #1 through #5 are

ON, the excess gain of the received light signal is equal to “1x.” The chart below

shows how excess gain relates to the D.A.T.A. light array indication.

Measuring Sensing Contrast

Contrast is the ratio of the amount of light falling on the receiver in the “light” state,

compared to the “dark” state (sometimes called “light-to-dark ratio”). Optimizing the

contrast in any sensing situation increases the sensing reliability. Contrast may be

calculated if excess gain values are known for both the light and dark conditions:

Contrast = Excess gain (light condition)

Excess gain (dark condition)

To determine the contrast for any sensing application, present both the Light and Dark

conditions to the OMNI-BEAM, and note how many LEDs in the D.A.T.A. display are

ON for each condition. Compute the ratio from the corresponding excess gain

numbers (from the chart on page 6) for the two conditions.

For example, if LEDs #1 through #8 come ON in the Light condition and LEDs #1 and

#2 come ON in the Dark condition (assuming Standard scale factor), contrast is

calculated as follows:

Light condition: 2.2x excess gain

Dark condition: 0.35x excess gain

Contrast = 2.2x = 6

0.35x

This value is expressed as 6:1 (“six-to-one”).

The best sensor adjustment will cause all ten D.A.T.A. LEDs to come ON for the Light

condition, and none in the Dark condition. In this situation (such as an application in

which a box breaks the beam of an opposed-mode emitter/receiver pair):

Contrast is greater than 3.7x = 15

0.25x

While it is not always possible to adjust a sensor to maintain this much contrast, it is

important to always adjust for the maximum possible contrast. The D.A.T.A. feature

makes this easy. The chart below gives general guidelines for contrast values.

Contrast Values and Corresponding Guidelines

Contrast Recommendation

1.2 or Less Unreliable. Evaluate alternative sensing schemes.

1.2 to 2 Poor Contrast. Use the LOW hysteresis setting and the FINE

scale factor.

2 to 3 Low Contrast. Sensing environment must remain perfectly clean and

all other sensing variables must remain stable.

3 to 10 Good Contrast. Minor sensing system variables will not affect

sensing reliabilty.

10 or Greater Excellent Contrast. Sensing should remain reliable as long as the

sensing system has enough excess gain for operation.
