Optical distance sensors in the BOD 24K product family combine precision and intelligence. The IO-Link interface simplifies startup. Extensive configuration options ensure that users can tailor the system to fit the application. Configuration can be accomplished either directly via IO-Link or from the built-in display. Integrated IO-Link diagnostic functions enable preventive maintenance to ensure high system availability. As an alternative to IO-Link, analog interfaces (voltage and current) are available as are discrete switching outputs that can be set up from the integrated display.
