Modified on Fri, 7 Feb at 10:49 AM

Purpose

This document will show how to properly set the light curtain with the fixed blanking feature using the dip switches when a client does not have an intelligent tap.


Problem Explanation/Objective

Using the Dip switches on the light curtain we will be able to set up fixed blanking on the light curtain just by following the instructions that consist of turning on and off the light curtain while having an object on the light curtain.


Supported devices

F3SG Series Light Curtains


Requirements

F3SG Series 
Any object to block the desired beams


Procedure

1. Place the object that will block the desired beams while having the system off (No power).
2 . Identify the DIP switches on the light curtains and make sure that all of them are off and switch 5 should be the only one in the ON position.
3. Turn the light curtain ON.
4. Between SW1 and SW1 DIP switches there is a pushbutton that needs to be held for 3 seconds
5. SFG AND BLANK LED will be flashing at the same time.
6. When you see them flashing press the same pushbutton once and the LDE should be stable.
7. Hold the reset button of the system for 3 seconds or cycle power to save the program.
