Programming procedure
The sensor features 2 programmable analog outputs with programmable evaluation range. Programming the evaluation
range and the operating mode is done either via the sensor's RS232 interface and ULTRA3000 software (see the
ULTRA3000 software description) or by means of the programming plug at the sensor's back end which is described
here.
Programming of Evaluation Range
1. Disconnect supply voltage
2. Remove the programming plug to activate program mode.
3. Reconnect supply voltage (Reset)
4. Place the target at the desired position for A1
5. Momentarily insert the programming plug in position A1 and then remove. This will program the position A1.
6. Place the target at the desired position for A2
7. Momentarily insert the programming plug in position A2 and then remove. This will program the position A2.
Notes:
Coded plug
• Removing the programming plug saves the new position into the device memory.
• The programming status is indicated by the LED. A flashing green LED indicates that the target is detected; a flashing red LED indicates that
no target is detected.
Programming the Operation Mode
If the program mode is still activated, continue at number 4. If not, activate program mode by performing the sequence numbers 1 to 3.
1. Disconnect supply voltage
2. Remove the programming plug to activate program mode.
3. Reconnect supply voltage (Reset)
4. Insert the programming plug in position E2/E3. By removing and reinserting the plug, the user can toggle through the three different modes
of operation. The selected mode is indicated by the LEDs as shown below:
• Rising slope mode, LED A2 flashes
• Falling slope mode, LED A1 flashes
• Zero line mode, LEDs A1 and A2 flash
5. Once the desired mode is selected, insert the programming plug in position T. This completes the programming procedure and saves the
switch points and mode of operation.
6. The sensor now operates in normal mode.
Note:
The programming plug also functions as the temperature compensation. If the programming plug has not been inserted in the T position within 5
minutes, the sensor will return to normal operating mode with the latest saved values, without temperature compensation.

Synchronization
This sensor features a synchronization input for suppressing ultrasonic mutual interference ("cross talk"). If this input is not connected, the sensor
will operate using internally generated clock pulses. It can be synchronized by applying an external square wave. The pulse duration must be ≥
100 µs. Each falling edge of the synchronization pulse triggers transmission of a single ultrasonic pulse. If the synchronization signal remains low
for ≥ 1 second, the sensor will revert to normal operating mode. Normal operating mode can also be activated by opening the signal connection
to the synchronization input (see note below).
If the synchronization input goes to a high level for > 1 second, the sensor will switch to standby mode, indicated by the green LED. In this mode,

the outputs will remain in the last valid output state.
Note:
If the option for synchronization is not used, the synchronization input has to be connected to ground (0 V) or the sensor must be operated via a
V1 cordset (4-pin).
The synchronization function cannot be activated during programming mode and vice versa.
The following synchronization modes are possible:
1. Several sensors (max. number see technical data) can be synchronized together by interconnecting their respective synchronization inputs.
In this case, each sensor alternately transmits ultrasonic pulses in a self multiplexing mode. No two sensors will transmit pulses at the same
time (see note below).
2. Multiple sensors can be controlled by the same external synchronization signal. In this mode the sensors are triggered in parallel and are synchronized by a common external synchronization pulse.
3. A separate synchronization pulse can be sent to each individual sensor. In this mode the sensors operate in external multiplex mode (see note
below).
4. A high level (+U
Note:
Sensor response times will increase proportionally to the number of sensors that are in the synchronization string. This is a result of the multiplexing of the ultrasonic transmit and receive signal and the resulting increase in the measurement cycle time.
) on the synchronization input switches the sensor to standby mode.

Note on communication with the UC-30GM-R2 interface cable
The UC-30GM-R2 interface cable allows for communication with the ultrasonic sensor using
ULTRA3000 software. The cable creates a connection between a PC RS-232 interface and the
programming plug socket on the sensor. When connecting to the sensor, make certain the plug
is lined up correctly; otherwise no communication will be possible. The key of the cable’s plug
must be aligned to the groove of the socket on the sensor (not with the arrow symbol on the sensor).

• Behavior of the sensor in case of echo loss
• Behavior of the sensor in case of a fault
• Average formation via an allowed number of measuring cycles
• Selection of the parameter set, RS 232 or manually
Note:
When connected to a PC and running the ULTRA3000 software, the sensor can act as a long term data logger as well.
Installation conditions
If the sensor is installed in an environment where the temperature can fall below 0 °C, one of these mounting flanges must be used for mounting:
BF30, BF30-F, or BF 5-30.
If the sensor is mounted in a through hole using the included steel nuts, it must be mounted at the middle of the threaded housing. If it must be
mounted at the front end of the threaded housing, plastic nuts with centering ring (optional accessories) must be used.
