THE BREAK BEAM SENSOR
SYSTEM (BBSS) INDICATOR
The BBSS is able to switch itself off in the event
of a blockage or contamination preventing it from
functioning correctly. In this instance, the BBSS will
switch itself back on once the blockage is cleared and
the correct operation can be resumed.
The BBSS indicator on the Run Screen is used to
indicate the eight possible states of the BBSS as
follows:
THE AUX OUT INDICATOR
The auxiliary socket on the Ego11 Circuit Board
allows third party products such as loaders or RF
transmitters to be interfaced to the Ego11.
The AUX Out indicator is turned on and off via the AUX
OUT parameter (see page 45).
There are two possible conditions that can be
indicated:
1
To clear the BBSS fault icon, use the button to switch off the
BBSS and then back on again.
BBSS ENABLED AND BALL DETECTED
The Ego11 can be fired at the maximum
rate of fire determined by the chosen
firing mode.
BBSS FAULT HAS BEEN CLEARED AND BALL
DETECTED
The sensor has been re-enabled. A ball is
detected and the Ego11 can be fired at the
maximum rate of fire determined by the
chosen firing mode.
1
BBSS ENABLED NO BALL DETECTED
The Ego11 cannot be fired.
BBSS FAULT HAS BEEN CLEARED AND NO
BALL DETECTED
The sensor is enabled. No ball is detected
so the Ego11 cannot be fired.
1
BBSS DISABLED
The Ego11 can be fired at a maximum rate
of fire as set by the BS OFF ROF
parameter
(see page 38).
BBSS ENABLED IN TRAINING MODE
The BBSS has been over-ridden as the
user has selected
TRAINING MODE
. As
the user has chosen to leave the BBSS on,
the achievable rate of fire is limited by the
firing mode.
BBSS FAULT DETECTED
The system is disabled. The Ego11 can
only be fired at a maximum rate of 2bps
less than the maximum rate of fire, up to a
maximum of 10 bps.
1
BBSS DISABLED IN TRAINING MODE
The BBSS has been over-ridden as the
user has selected
TRAINING MODE
. As the
user has chosen to turn the BBSS off, the
achievable rate of fire is limited by the BS
OFF ROF parameter (see page 38).
AUX OUT ENABLED
The AUX OUT is enabled. Each time the
circuit board detects a valid trigger pull a
signal will be sent to the AUX socket on the
Circuit Board.
AUX OUT DISABLED
The AUX OUT is disabled. No signal will
be sent to the AUX socket on the Circuit
Board.
