  • Page 30: Principle Of Measurement

    3.1 Principle of Measurement 3.1 Principle of Measurement The sensor head emits belt-shaped laser beams from its emitter and receives them with the light receiving element (CMOS) of its receiver. If a measured object is inserted between the emitter and receiver of the sensor head, the bright section (light entry section) that receives laser beams and the dark section (light interception section) that is the shade of the measured object are projected on to the CMOS.

  • Page 31: Role Of Controllers

    3.2 Role of Controllers 3.2 Role of Controllers Sensor head measured values are sent from the sensor head to the controller. Measured values can be held in the controller and calculations performed. The results of the calculations are displayed as judgment values. Output judgment is based on judgment values. The controller is equipped with three outputs (OUT 1, OUT 2, and OUT 3) and with indicators that show the respective results of the three outputs.

    7.7 Tab Cancellation Function 7.7.2 Operations when the Tab is Detected When this product recognizes a sudden change in measured values and judges that the change satisfies the conditions required to set the tab cancellation function, it holds the judgment value (median filter value) right before the change. In a certain period after the sudden change subsides, the judgment value will be released from the hold.
