Sensor calibration

All settings required for operating the sensor are performed 

with the web guide controller. 



Information on this topic is available in the Operating 

Instructions for the web guide controller.

Before the ultrasonic sensor is used for working with 

acoustically transparent material, the sensor must always be 

calibrated to the contrast with the web guide controller.

LEDs in normal 

operation

– Field of view completely uncovered:

The outer LED flickers. The two inner LEDs are off.



Example A

– Field of view partially or completely covered by the material:

The LED on which the edge of the material web is located 

flickers. The LED(s) of the covered area(s) is/are lit.
