Printed in USA 02/02 P/N 51181rev.B D11E Series Sensors – Visible Green, Blue or White LED Light Source RUN Mode Normal operation of the D11 Expert is called RUN mode. The LED indicators operate in RUN mode, as follows: Indicator LED Color Function Power "ON" Green 1) On steadily whenever power is applied 2) Flashes at approximately 4Hz to indicate that the output is overloaded Output Indicator Yellow Follows the action of the output: On when the output is energized Off when the output is de-energized Signal Strength Red SIG Signal Strength Indicator Output Indicator Power ON Indicator Programming Push Button Lights whenever the sensor "sees" its modulated light source and pulses at a rate which is proportional to the received light signal strength The Signal Strength indicator is Banner’s exclusive AID™ (Alignment Indicating Device, U.S. Patent #4356393). This feature makes alignment during the TEACH mode easy and accurate and provides a means of signaling when maintenance is needed when the sensor is in RUN mode. Whenever the pulse rate is slow, the fiber sensing ends should be cleaned and/or the alignment checked. Figure 1. D11E Expert Features TEACH Mode Sensitivity is automatically set (and optimized) by “teaching” the sensor the light and dark conditions. This is accomplished in TEACH mode. TEACH mode simply requires that each of the two sensing conditions be presented to the fiber optics. When the push button is clicked, the sensor samples the sensing condition and registers it into memory. After the second sensing condition is registered, the D11E automatically sets the sensitivity to the optimum value for the application, and then returns to RUN mode. NOTE: There is a period of a few seconds at the end of TEACH mode before RUN mode begins. Light or Dark Operate Selection The two sensing conditions may be presented in either order: the light condition first, and then the dark condition, or vice versa. The condition presented first is the condition for which the output will energize. In other words, the output will be light operated if the light condition is TEACH condition #1, or the output will be dark operated if the dark condition is TEACH condition #1.

Contrast is the difference in light level between the two sensing conditions. Higher contrast allows higher sensitivity level, and resulting higher excess gain. A high contrast level is directly related to sensing reliability, and forgivingness to subtle changes in sensing conditions. The display of contrast at the end of the TEACH mode is as follows: NOTE: If the relative contrast level is unacceptable (1 flash), the program will return to TEACH Condition #1. TEACH Mode Programming Push Button Resulting Indicator Status Push and Hold ≥ 2 Seconds Push and hold for ≥ 2 seconds Green: Flashes at 1Hz Yellow: OFF Red: Pulses to indicate relative received signal strength TEACH Condition #1 (Output ON State) Present the first sensing condition to the sensor and single click † Single-Click Sensing Condition #1 Green: Flashes at 2Hz Yellow: OFF Red: Pulses to indicate relative received signal strength This will be the condition corresponding to the sensor output ON state TEACH Condition #2 (Output OFF State) Present the second sensing condition to the sensor and single click Green, Yellow, and Red indicators flash simultaneously Single-Click Sensing Condition #2 one to four times to indicate relative sensing contrast (see chart, above). After a few seconds, the sensor returns to RUN mode This will be the condition corresponding to the sensor output OFF state † NOTE: The sensor will return to RUN mode if the first TEACH condition is not registered within 20 seconds. TEACH mode may be cancelled before either condition #1 or #2 by holding the push button depressed for 2 seconds. Maximum Sensitivity Setting D11E sensors are factory-programmed for maximum sensitivity. This default setting may be easily recalled by holding the push button for two or more seconds to enter TEACH mode, and then clicking the push button four times in a row. NOTE: The default program includes light operate output and pulse stretcher OFF.

Input A remote programming switch is connected between the white wire and dc common (see hookup diagrams on page 6). The switch may be either a normally-open contact, or an opencollector NPN transistor which has its emitter connected to dc common. 0.04 sec ≤ T < 0.8 sec T Wait > 0.8 seconds before next input T T Two-Pulse Input Programming is accomplished using a specified sequence of input pulses. The duration of each pulse (“T”) is defined: 0.04 seconds < T < 0.8 seconds. T The required spacing between adjacent pulses in a sequence (e.g. a “double-pulse”) also “T”. The timing diagrams, (right) illustrate the input requirements. Wait > 0.8 seconds before next input T T T T Four-Pulse Input T T T Wait > 0.8 seconds before next input Disable or Enable the Push Button: When remote programming is used, exclusively, it may be beneficial to disable the push button on the D11E to increase the security of the settings. 1) To disable the push button: Pulse the remote input four times (see timing diagram, above). 2) To enable the push button at a later date: Pulse the input four times (again). Set Sensitivity via the TEACH mode: 1) Present the first (output ON) sensing condition to the sensor and pulse the remote input once. 2) Present the second (output OFF) sensing condition to the sensor and pulse the remote input once. The three LED indicators will flash simultaneously one to four times to indicate relative sensing contrast (see page 3), and the sensor will return to RUN mode. Enable or Disable the 40-millisecond Pulse Stretcher: 1) Pulse the remote input two times (see timing diagram). The status of the pulse stretcher is indicated by the red LED: The red LED will be lit, steadily, if the pulse stretcher is ON; the red LED will double-flash if the pulse stretcher is OFF. 2) Pulse the remote input once to toggle the the pulse stretcher ON or OFF. 3) Pulse the remote input two times to save the setting and return to the RUN mode.
