range from 0 to 5. The design of Type 42DRA Model 5500 special function
photohead increases the application capabilities of the control line in difficult
environmental conditions by use of fiber optics and special lens assemblies.

In all models, the photohead contains all the functional electronics and optics. It
includes synchronous detection circuitry which tends to restrict the control to
operate only with its own pulsed LED source. Adjustable input sensitivity
broadens control application capability to those involving translucent and even
transparent materials, such as plastic films and glass. A switch is provided to
assure sensitivity adjustment over the entire control operating range.

With a flick of a switch, the Type 42DR control provides operation in either a
light energized (beam break) or dark energized (beam make) mode.

An optical shutter on the Type 42DRP proximity control permits the use of a
single control for both short- and long-range proximity applications. With the
shutter in the short range (SR) position, the maximum operating distance is 1.
The very sharp drop off in operating margin as shown in the Type 42DRP
response curve on page 6 helps to ignore backgrounds that are close to the
object being detected.

The dual open collector outputs, one an NPN open collector for current sink
and the other a PNP open collector to provide current source, are included in all
Type 42DR controls to maximize customer logic interconnection capabilities.
Therefore, these controls provide the opportunity for simultaneous connection to
relay loads or opto-coupler drives and TTL logic outputs. See page 7 for
connection diagrams.

Photoheads can be plugged only into a terminal base Type 42DTB Model
5500 suitable for voltage inputs of 13 to 29.5V DC.

The Type 42DTB Model 5500 Terminal Base allows the user to make his
incoming and outgoing connections directly to the control thereby eliminating the
need of a separate junction box. Wiring connections are made to easy-to-wire
pressure type terminals with nonrotating clamps on the screws capable of
handling up to two #14AWG wires.
