Product Introduction
1. CNTX Contrast Sensor Product Description:
The notable feature of the CNTX is its 2-digit display, providing signal strength indication for quick setup and integration. The versatile sensor offers users setup parameters including light source intensity adjustment, detection limits, and gain selection, suitable for a wide range of applications. The CNTX includes a discrete PNP/NPN output and an analog output. The discrete output is automatically configured for PNP/NPN operation. The analog output signal can be used to access targets via reflectance characteristics.
