OPTO SENSORS
Diffuse Type Opto Diffuse sensors can distinguish between objects with various reflection proper-
ties, these emit a beam of pulsed red light which is reflected as the target enters
the scanning distance. When the intensity of the received light exceeds that set
by the sensitivity control, ie when the board is detected, the sensor output is
switched ON.

Setting Up
Procedure
The procedure for setting up the diffuse optos (board at left and board at right
sensors) is fully detailed in the Rail System chapter of this manual (Adjustments
and Settings - Board at Left/Right Optos).
Testing Procedure If the sensor fails to operate:
1. Disconnect the diffuse opto.
2. Short out Pins 2 and 3 on the socket.
3. Check that the relevant NextMove LED is illuminated or that the pin breakout
is 0V to confirm, or otherwise, that the sensor is defective.
Background
Suppressed Opto
The background suppressed opto sensor is a diffuse type sensor. The sensor
incorporates a background suppression capability and a potentiometer for
precisely adjusting the sensing distance.
The opto emits a pulsed red light which is reflected by a target when it enters
the sensing distance, not only sensing the reflected light but also the distance
of the object to the sensor.
When the beam of light hits the board or screen, some of the diffused light is
reflected back and the sensor NPN transistor output state is switched ON.

The beam of light, which is continuously on, is accurately focused and is able
to distinguish between the target and objects outside the scan range.

Setting Up
Procedure
The procedure for setting up the camera, background suppressed opto is fully
detailed in the Camera and Vision Chapter of this manual (Adjustments and
Settings - Board at Stop Sensor).
The procedure for setting up the remote board stop, background suppressed
opto is fully detailed in the Rising Table Chapter of this manual (Adjustments
and Settings - Board at Stop Sensor).
Testing Procedure If the sensor fails to operate carry out the following:
1. Disconnect the opto.
