Installation and Alignment

Figure 3-17. DIP switch configuration to teach fixed blanking

Fixed Blanking Configuration

1. From either normal operation or a power OFF condition, set

the first and second DIP switches (T/L and Red Res) both

to the left (Trip operation and Reduced Resolution enabled

positions). See Figure 3-17.

2. Set the third and fourth DIP switches (the second T/L and

Red Res) both to the right (Latch operation and Reduced

Resolution OFF positions).

3. The receiver should now either be in a lockout condition or

power is still OFF.

4. If power is OFF: Apply power

Lockout condition: Perform a valid reset sequence (close

the reset switch for 1/4 to 2 seconds, then reopen it).

5. Fixed Blanking configuration indicated by:

• Display sequentially displays “PFA” (program fixed

blanking active) and the number of blocked beams (“0” if

all beams are clear).

• Zone indicators active

• Reset indicator OFF

• Status indicator ON Red

6. Position object(s) to be blanked (or remove objects that will

no longer be blanked).

7. When any beams are blocked, the 7-segment display

sequentially displays “PFA” and the number of blocked

beams. The zone indicators remain active and denote the

location of blocked beams.

8. To teach the blanked beams, re-configure DIP switches for

normal operation (see Table 4-1 and Figure 4-1). Verify that

only the objects to be blanked are interrupting the defined

area. A lockout will occur if an object is moved or removed

after teaching.

9. Receiver indicates:

• Display: sequentially displays “PFC”

(PFC = Program Fixed Blanking Complete)

• Zone indicators flash approximate location of fixed

blanked area programmed

• Reset indicator single-flashing Yellow

• Status indicator single-flashing Red
10. Perform a valid reset sequence (see Step 4) or cycle power.
11. To disable fixed blanking, follow this same procedure, but

remove all objects not to be blanked at Step 6.

3.4.4 Trip Test

After optimizing the optical alignment and configuring fixed

blanking and reduced resolution (if applicable), perform the

trip test to verify the detection capability of the EZ-SCREEN

LP. This test will also verify correct sensor orientation (Section

3.1.5), identify optical short circuits (Section 3.1.6), and verify

the expected resolution for applications using reduced resolution

(Section 3.4.2). After the installation passes the trip test, the

safety outputs may be connected and the commissioning

checkout may be performed (initial installations only).

1. Select the proper test piece (see table), supplied with the

receiver.

2. Verify that the EZ-SCREEN LP is in Run mode with the

Green Status indicator ON (or flashing if reduced resolution is

enabled), all Zone indicators are Green, and the Yellow Status

indicator ON. A manual reset may be required in Latch mode

(see Sections 4.2 and 4.3).

3. Pass the specified test piece through the defined area in

three paths: near the emitter, near the receiver, and midway

between the emitter and receiver (Figure 3-18).

4. During each pass, while the test piece is interrupting the

defined area, at least one Zone indicator must be Red. The

Red Zone indicator must change with the position of the

test piece within the defined area.

Trip Output Operation: The Status indicator must turn Red

and remain Red for as long as the test piece remains in the

defined area. If not, the installation has failed the trip test.

Latch Output Operation: The Status indicator must turn

Red and remain Red. The Yellow Reset indicator must

remain ON steady. If the Reset indicator begins to flash at

any time while the test piece is interrupting the defined area,

the installation has failed the trip test.

If all Zone indicators turn Green or fail to follow the position

of the test piece while it is within the defined area, the

installation has failed the trip test. Check for correct sensor

orientation, reflective surfaces and unguarded areas created

due to the use of Blanking. Do not continue until the situation is

corrected.

Cascaded systems: To test a cascaded system, test each light

screen individually, while monitoring the status indicator on the

first (master) receiver in the cascade.

With Power ON:
1. Position object(s) in the defined area.
2. Set T/L and Red Res switches as shown (do

not change SC2/SC1 or E1/E2 switch positions).

3. Press the Reset button or cycle power.
4. Reconfigure DIP switches for normal operation.
5. Press the Rest button or cycle power.
NO TE: If the EDM wiring does not match the switch

position, an EDM error occurs and fixed blanking
will not be allowed.
