5.3.4 Scan Analysis Mode Selection
Thecontrolmodulemaybeprogrammed,ifdesired,foranyoneortwoofsevenScan
Analysis(measurement)Modes.Eachselectedmodemaybeassignedindividuallyto
anoutput(seesection5.3.5or5.3.6).Thebeamsinthearrayarenumberedin
sequence,withbeam#1locatedatthecabledendoftheemitterandthereceiver.
“Beam Location” Modes
• First Beam Blocked (FBB): ThecontrolmoduleidentifiesthelocationoftheFirst
BeamBlocked.
• First Beam Made (FBM):ThecontrolmoduleidentifiesthelocationoftheFirst
BeamMade(unblocked).
• Last Beam Blocked (LBB):ThecontrolmoduleidentifiesthelocationoftheLast
BeamBlocked.
• Last Beam Made (LBM):ThecontrolmoduleidentifiesthelocationoftheLast
BeamMade(unblocked).
• Middle Beam Blocked (MBB):Thecontrolmoduleidentifiesthelocationofthe
MiddleBeamBlocked,midwaybetweenthefirstandlastbeamsblocked.
“Beam Total” Modes
• Total Beams Blocked (TBB): Thecontrolmoduletotalsthenumberofblocked
beams.
• Total Beams Made (TBM): Thecontrolmoduletotalsthenumberofmade
(unblocked)beams.
•Contiguous Beams Blocked (CBB):Thecontrolmoduleidentifiesthelargestnumber
ofconsecutivelyblockedbeams.
•Contiguous Beams Made (CBM):Thecontrolmoduleidentifiesthelargestnumber
ofconsecutivelymadebeams.
•Transitions (TRN):Thecontrolmodulecountschangesfromblockedtoclearand
cleartoblocked.Forinstance,ifbeams6-34areblocked,thenthereisaclear-to-
blockedtransitionfrombeam5tobeam6,andablocked-to-cleartransitionfrom
beam34tobeam35.Transitionmodecanbeusedtocountobjectswithinthearray.
TheAnalysisMode(s)programmedmaybeassignedtoanyoneoftheavailable
outputs(seeFigure5-18).EachoutputcanbesetforMEAS1, MEAS2, MEAS1
InvertedorMEAS2 Inverted.
5.3.5 Analog Output Configuration (Analysis Mode Assignment)
Analogoutputs#1and#2mayeachbeassignedtooneoftheanalysismodes
describedinsection5.3.4.WhentheselectedScanAnalysisModeinvolvesfirstor
lastbeamblockedormade(unblocked),theassignedoutputwillvaryinproportionto
thebeamnumberidentifiedduringascan.WhentheScanAnalysisModeinvolves
totalbeamsblockedormade,thatassignedoutputwillvaryinproportiontothetotal
beamscountedduringascan.
Notethatthepull-downmenususedforassignmentoftheScanAnalysisModesto
theanalogoutputsincludetwo“Inverted”selections.WheneitherMEAS1 Invertedor
MEAS2 Invertedisselected,thatanalogoutputwilldecreaseasthemeasurement
modevalueincreases.Aninvertedoutputwillbeatfullscale(Spanvalue)whenthe
scananalysisvalueiszero;andatmaximumscananalysisvalue,theoutputwillbeat
theNullvalue.
