MULTIFUNCTION TIMER/LOGIC CARD
Plug-in timer/logic cards easily convert any ON/OFF MP Series photoelectric into a multifunction control. Seven DIP
switches located on the timer card provide the user with a choice of seven delay functions including dual delay and
motion detection. In addition, light operated or dark operated sensing can be selected by a switch located on the
photoelectric sensor head.
TIME DELAY OPTIONS
The timer/logic cards can be set up to modify the sensor’s head output signal. For instance, in thru-scan or reflective scan
(L.O. mode), if the logic card is set for OFF delay the sensor does not immediately turn off its output circuit after the
beam goes dark or is blocked. Instead it waits until the beam has been dark for a preset time. If set for ON delay, the
sensor waits for a preset to time to recognize that the beam is complete.
Each timer/logic card has seven DIP switches to select ON delay, OFF delay, or both. The delays range as shown
in the Specifications and Order Guide. The cards also offer totally independent range selection and adjustment for
ON and OFF delays.
ONE SHOT OPTIONS
In addition, the timer/logic card offers four modes of operation: 1-shot, a delayed 1-shot, 1-shot drop, and a delayed
1-shot drop. The cards can be adjusted for both the width of the 1-shot pulse and the length of delay before the
1-shot is fired.
TIMING OPTION SETTINGS
Prior to inserting a multifunction timer card into the photoelectric sensor head, you must properly set DIP switches
located on the card. You must also set the L.O./D.O. switch located in the photoelectric sensor head.
TIMING ADJUSTMENTS
On the top of the MP Series photoelectric sensor head is an access cover. When opened with a small blade screwdriver,
the multi-turn timer adjustment screws, labeled “1” and “2,” are exposed.
Clockwise rotation increases the time range(s). If a single delay option is selected, the other timer adjustment is automatically
set to zero. When the sensor head has been set to the desired timing range(s), snap the access cover shut to provide
proper head sealing.
