Weft sensor
The optical weft sensor is of reflecting type. The
weft sensor should be fitted on the front of the
reed. It will not damage the reed. The weft
sensor has a set of optical components enabling
the detection of the weft across the entire air
channel.
24 V DC
The relay is normally energized. It drops for 1 second when a weft fault
occurs.
Max load on relay contacts: 2 x 1A / 125V AC or
2 x 2A / 30 V DC

Yarn arrival
output
One output for each channel is available notifying the arrival time of the yarn.
The pulse is 50 ms long and the positive edge is synchronised with the arrival
time of the yarn.
Input synchronising To use the stop outputs on the central control unit, the unit must be
switch
synchronised with the machine. This can be done with a proximity switch or
with an Eltex light switch. A positive pulse defines the time frame when the
weft yarn arrival is expected. The yarn arrival outputs are available also when
no synchronising switch is used.
Syncronising switch With a connection shunt on the printed circuit board the input can be set
function
to suit a NPN or a PNP type proximity switch. If Eltex light switch is used,
select the NPN position.
Idle pick input
An input to inhibit the stop outputs. This is used when the machine is
weaving without weft (fringing).
ON/OFF switch
When the switch is OFF the stop outputs are inhibited. The machine can
then run without weft.
Other functions of the unit is still active.
ANTI switch
Filter switch
On models where the second channel is used to detect if the weft yarn is
passing too far out, this channel can be set so that it is less sensitive for dust
particles passing the weft sensor. The switch has three positions.
