Operation
Warner Electric MCS-833 and MCS-834 counters are
optional plug-in modules which modify the basic on-off
photo-electric control operation. With the module
installed, the photoelectric control will have a one-shot
output after receiving a presettable number of inputs.
The maximum continuous counting rate will be limited
by the one-shot time and can be expressed by the formula:
Counting rate <
To maximize the continuous counting rate, adjust the
one-shot time to the minimum acceptable for the application.
The mode of operation will be effected by the
“light/dark” switch in the photoelectric control. Objects
are counted as they enter the photoelectric beam
regardless of light or dart operational modes.
