Good day all.
I have a SICK level sensor here that I need to connect.
I have never worked with SICK stuff before so I wanted to get some opinions on how to wire this device.
I have attached a PDF screen shot from the SICK manual that shows the wiring. I also have attached a PDF screen shot of the desired connection to the PLC. The diagram shows a simple two wire analog circuit and I am fine with this. Its the naming of the leads in the SICK manual that I do not understand. There is a (L+) that I take to be 24VDC+. But that's it. the rest of the leads are called (Qa) (Qpnp) (Sync/Com) and (M).
I would be greatly appreciative if somebody could help me connect the dots.
Thanks
