Order number U1RT002 U1RT003 Technical Data Connection type M12×1; 4/5-pin Technical Safety Data MTTFd (EN ISO 13849-1) 1.558, 40 a Functions PNP NO Yes (default setting) NPN NO Yes (default setting) Error output IO-Link 3.2 Warm-Up Phase The warm-up phase lasts roughly 30 minutes. At the beginning of the warm-up phase, linearity deviation and reproducibility may deviate from the specified values.
3.3 Mode-Dependent Data Some technical data depend on the filter set. Depending on the setting, the following data are obtained: Reflex and Through-beam Mode Filter value Switching frequency in Hz Response time in ms 2,000 * The specified switching frequency and response time correspond to the maximum duration including interfer- ence filter.

4. Transport and Storage 4.1 Transport Upon receipt of shipment, inspect the goods for damage in transit. In the case of damage, conditionally accept the package and notify the manufacturer of the damage. Then return the device, making reference to damage in transit.
5. Installation and Electrical Connection 5.1 Installation • Protect the product from contamination during installation. • Observe all applicable electrical and mechanical regulations, standards, and safety rules. • Protect the product against mechanical influences. • Make sure that the sensor is mounted in a mechanically secure fashion. •...
5.2 Electrical Connection • Wire the sensor in accordance with the connection diagram. • Switch on the supply voltage (see “3. Technical Data” on page • The blue supply voltage indicator lights up. Wire colors: 1 = brown 2 = white 3 = blue 4 = black 5 = gray...
5.3 Diagnosis 5.3.1 LED Indicators Indicator Status Meaning Sensor ready for operation Supply voltage indicator P No voltage supply Switching output active Switching status Warning 2.5 Hz indicator O1, O2 Error 5 Hz Switching output inactive Not lit up Flashing Permanently lit up 5.3.2 Troubleshooting Error...
• Shut down the machine. • Analyze and eliminate the cause of error with the aid of the diagnostics information. • If the error cannot be eliminated, please contact wenglor’s support department. • Do not operate in case of indeterminate malfunctioning.
7. Sensor Settings This section describes the settings that can be made directly on the sensor via the control panel. Teach-In Three different teach-in modes are available. They can be set via IO-Link (see section “8.1 Settings via IO-Link/Parameters” on page 22).
To this end, the sensor is connected to a suitable IO-Link master (see product detail page/complementary products). The interface protocol and the IODD can be found at www.wenglor.com in the download area for the respec- tive product. 8.1 Settings via IO-Link/Parameters 8.1.1 Sensor Functions...

Function Possible Settings Default NOTE! • Sensors in synchronous mode should have the same sonic cone settings for optimal measurement results. • The response time of the sensors in synchronous mode increases to 1.43 × the response time in normal mode (e.g.
Page 24
Function Possible Settings Default Filter The selected filter has an influence on the response time (see response time in section “3. Technical Data” on page 9) and the number of distance values to be evaluated. Filter Description 0-15 Median filter Median filter from the specified number of measured val- ues.

Function Possible Settings Default Temperature The sensor has internal temperature compensation. Alternatively, the Internal mode temperature can be measured externally and sent to the sensor as a process or parameter. Internal Sensor operates with internal temperature compensation External Sensor works with external temperature compensation and uses the transmitted process or parameters (see section “8.2 Condition Monitor- ing/Process...
8.1.2 Input/Output Functions (I/O) 8.1.2.1 Pin Function The pin function is used to define the function of pins I/O1, I/O2, and I3, as these can be used for different functions. Possible Settings Default I/O1 Switching Switching Output output Switching point SSC1 is assigned to the switching output. Error Output The error output switches if one of the assigned errors occurs;...
Transmit Signal Off Input Transmit signal off input The sensor’s transmit signal is deactivated as long as the input is acti- vated. The sensor does not send a measured value and sets the status to "No signal". Teach-In Input Teach-in The outputs (switching outputs) can be set using the same procedure as with the teach-in key (see section 6).
8.1.2.3 Input Functions The input functions are used to set the physical inputs. Function Possible Settings Default Input mode Operating volt- Operating Voltage Active age active The function is triggered as soon as operating voltage is applied to the input. Operating Voltage Inactive The function is triggered as soon as 0 V is applied to the input or the input is not occupied.

8.1.4 Condition Monitoring Functions 8.1.4.1 Status Message Function The sensor provides various status messages. Due to the process data structure, four status messages can be transmitted as individual process data. These parameters can be used to set the status messages that are transmitted via the process data. Function Possible Settings Default...
Error Short circuit A short circuit has occurred on at least one pin. Device error A hardware error has occurred. 8.1.5 Simulation Functions This function simulates the behavior of the sensor regardless of the current status and measured value. This can be used to check whether a plant in which the sensor is integrated reacts correctly to the data supplied by the sensor and processes them accordingly.
