Description The cube ultrasonic sensors are designed in a cubic housing for demanding applications. The cube is available with the QuickLock mounting bracket. This allows the sensor to be mounted quickly and easily. cube sensor with QuickLock mounting bracket The cube can be easily turned in 5 positions thanks to the rotating sensor head. The convenient mounting allows flexible use in numerous applications. Four LEDs show all operating states in any mounting position. The sensor status is clearly visible. There are two output stages available: 1 Push-Pull switching output in pnp- or npn-circuitry...

cube sensor using alignment assistance Using the two Teach-in buttons T1 and T2 the cube sensors can be be easily set (microsonic Teach-in). IO-Link integrated cube ultrasonic sensors support IO-Link in version 1.1.2 as well as Smart Sensor Profile. Set cube sensor via Teach-in procedure The cube sensors with switching output have three operating modes:  Single switching point (Method A and B) Two-way reflective barrier Window mode The operating mode single switching point (Method A) is suitable for applications, in which the actual distance to the object is also the switching point. A typical...

Teach-in of a switching point Method A and Method B The operating mode single switching point +8 % (Method B) is recommended by objects, which move into the detection area from the side. In this case the switching distance is set 8 % further than the actual measured distance to the object. This ensures a reliable switching distance even if the height of the objects varies slightly. Teach-in of a single switching point (Method A)  Place object to be detected (1) at the desired distance Push button T2 for about 3 seconds Then push button T2 again for about 1 second Teach-in of a switching point...

LinkControl permits comprehensive parameterisation of cube ultrasonic sensors via the LinkControl-Adapter LCA-2 which connects the sensors to the PC. Sensor connected to the PC via LCA-2 for programming Easy to synchronise If several cube ultrasonic sensors are operated in one application, the can be synchronised via pin 5 to prevent. If more than 10 sensors must be synchronised, this can be carried out with the SyncBox1 SyncBox1, which is available as an accessory. Synchronisation via pin 5 is also possible in IO-Link mode. © 2025 microsonic GmbH Imprint microsonic GmbH Phoenixseestraße 7 44263...
