WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to

serious injury or death. This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary

to allow its use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an
energized or de-energized sensor output condition.

Top Panel Interface

Opening the dust cover provides access to the top panel interface. The top panel interface consists of the RUN/PRG/ADJ
mode switch, LO/DO switch, +/SET/- rocker button, dual red/green digital displays, and output LED.

RUN/PRG/ADJ Mode Switch

The RUN/PRG/ADJ mode switch puts the sensor in RUN, PRG (Program), or ADJ (Adjust) mode. RUN mode
allows the sensor to operate normally and prevents unintentional programming changes via the +/SET/­button. PRG mode allows the sensor to be programmed through the display driven programming menu (see
Program Mode below). ADJ mode allows the user to perform Expert TEACH/SET methods and Manual
Adjust (see Adjust Mode below).

LO/DO Switch

The LO/DO switch is used to select Light Operate or Dark Operate mode. In Light Operate mode, the output
is ON when the sensing condition is above the threshold (for Window SET, the output is ON when the
sensing condition is inside the window). In Dark Operate mode, the output is ON when the sensing condition
is below the threshold (for Window SET, the output is ON when the sensing condition is outside the
window).

+/SET/- Rocker Button

The +/SET/- rocker button is a 3-way button. The +/- positions are engaged by rocking the button left/
right. The SET position is engaged by clicking down the button while the rocker is in the middle position. All
three button positions are used during PRG mode to navigate the display driven programming menu. During
ADJ mode, SET is used to perform TEACH/SET methods and +/- are used to manually adjust the
threshold(s). The rocker button is disabled during RUN mode, except when using Window SET, see Window

SET on page

Red/Green Digital Displays

During RUN and ADJ mode, the Red display shows the signal level and the Green display shows the
threshold. During PRG mode, both displays are used to navigate the display driven programming menu.

Output LED

The output LED provides a visible indication when the output is activated.

Sliding the RUN/PRG/ADJ mode switch to the ADJ position allows the user to perform Expert TEACH/SET methods and
Manual Adjustment of the threshold(s).

Two-Point TEACH

Establishes a single switching threshold

•

• Threshold can be adjusted using "+" and "-" rocker button (Manual Adjust)

Two-Point TEACH is used when two conditions can be presented statically to the sensor. The sensor locates a single
sensing threshold (the switchpoint) midway between the two taught conditions, with the Output ON condition on one side,
and the Output OFF condition on the other (see Figure 2 on page 6).

Figure 2. Two-Point TEACH (Light Operate shown)

The Output ON and OFF conditions can be reversed by using the LO/DO (Light Operate/ Dark Operate) switch (see LO/DO
Switch in Top Panel Interface on page

3).

Two-Point TEACH and Manual Adjust

Moves switching threshold value up or down to make adjustments

• Slide Mode switch to ADJ to enter Adjust mode

• Press "+" to increase; press "-" to decrease

◦ GREEN display shows the switching threshold value
◦ 2 seconds after adjustment, the GREEN display will flash 3 times to confirm

• Slide Mode switch to RUN to complete operation

• Threshold can be adjusted using "+" and "-" rocker button (Manual Adjust)

Dynamic TEACH is best used when a machine or process may not be stopped for teaching. The sensor learns during actual
sensing conditions, taking multiple samples of the light and dark conditions and automatically setting the threshold at the
optimum level (see Figure 3 on page 8).

Window SET

Sets window thresholds that extend a programmable % offset above and below the presented condition

may appear

• See Program Mode in the user's manual for programming the Offset Percent setting (to increase/decrease the
window size)
