THE BREAK BEAM SENSOR
SYSTEM INDICATOR BBSS
The BBSS is able to switch itself o 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 main screen is used to indicate
the eight possible states of the BBSS as follows:
THE AUX OUT INDICATOR
The auxiliary socket on the Geo2 circuit board allows third
party products such as loaders or RF transmitters to be
interfaced to the Geo2.
The AUX out indicator is turned on and o via the AUX OUT
parameter (see page 42).
There are two possible conditions that can be indicated:
BBSS ENABLED AND BALL DETECTED
The Geo2 can be red at the maximum rate of
re determined by the chosen ring mode.
BBSS FAULT HAS BEEN CLEARED AND
BALL DETECTED
The sensor has been re-enabled. A ball is
detected and the Geo2 can be red at the
maximum rate of re determined by the
chosen ring mode.
BBSS ENABLED NO BALL DETECTED
The Geo2 cannot be red.
BBSS FAULT HAS BEEN CLEARED AND
NO BALL DETECTED
The sensor is enabled. No ball is detected so
the Geo2 cannot be red. To reset the BBSS
icon, use the button to switch o the
BBSS and then back on again.
BBSS DISABLED
The Geo2 can be red at a maximum rate of
re as set by the BS OFF ROF
parameter (see
page 35).
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 re is limited by the ring mode.
BBSS FAULT DETECTED
The system is disabled. The Geo2 can only
be red at a maximum rate of 2bps less than
the maximum rate of re, up to a maximum
of 10 bps.
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 o, the achievable
rate of re is limited by the BS OFF ROF
parameter (see page 35).
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 connector on the circuit
board.
AUX OUT DISABLED
The AUX OUT is disabled. No signal will be sent
to the AUX connector on the circuit board.
