R55F Series Sensor Overview
The R55F Fiber-Optic Sensor was developed to provide simplicity of operation and
access to tight areas for color mark (registration) sensing applications. The R55F is a
technological advancement from earlier R55 models.
R55F sensors feature TEACH mode sensitivity adjustment, by presenting the light and
the dark sensing conditions to the sensor. In addition, sensitivity may be fine-tuned at
any time by simply clicking the “+” or “-” buttons on the sensor. The ten-element signal
strength light bar clearly displays the relative received signal strength.
The bipolar (one NPN and one PNP) outputs may be programmed to include a 20 or
40-millisecond pulse stretcher (OFF Delay), if required. Both TEACH mode sensitivity
adjustment and output SETUP are accomplished using the push-buttons on the sensor,
or by supplying input pulses via the Remote Teach input.
TEACH mode has two options: Static TEACH and Dynamic TEACH. Static TEACH is
used to manually set the two sensing conditions individually or to program a specific
condition to be sensed (single-point TEACH). Dynamic TEACH provides a means for
teaching a series of conditions on-the-fly; the R55F “averages” the sensing events and
automatically sets (and periodically updates via the adaptive threshold feature) the
switch point between light and dark conditions.

Figure 1. Installing fibers into the R55F
Series sensor
Plastic fibers
shown; procedure
is identical for
glass fibers
Glass Fiber Installation Procedure:
1) Check to see that a rubber o-ring is pre-installed on each fiber control end.
2) Slide the fiber clip to the open position (A).
3) Insert one fiber end into each port (B). Push firmly on the fiber ends to compress
the o-rings and align the grooves in the fiber ends with the slot in the fiber clip.
4) Slide the fiber clip back into place, locking the fibers into position (C).
Plastic Fiber Installation Procedure:
NOTE: R55F sensors accept 0.75, 1.0, and 1.5 mm (0.03", 0.04", and 0.06") core
diameter plastic fibers.
1) Cut the “control ends” (sensor ends) of the plastic fiber(s) to the desired length
per the procedure which accompanies the fiber assembly.
2) If not already done, separate bifurcated fibers by approximately 2" from the control
ends.
3) Slide the fiber clip to the open position (A).
4) Insert the fiber ends into each port and push them in as far as they will go (B).
5) Slide the fiber clip back into place, locking the fibers into position (C).
Fiber Optic Mounting Considerations
Mount the sensing end of the fiber optic assembly so that the light image is totally
contained within the boundaries of the color mark to be sensed. The light image is
made smaller by moving the sensing tip closer to the surface of the material to be
sensed.
When sensing marks on shiny (specular) materials, such as metal, plastic or glossy
paper, mount the sensing tip of the fiber at approximately 15° from perpendicular to
the material surface to minimize strong direct reflections.
Isolate the fiber mounting from vibration. Also, maintain mechanical stability of the
surface to be sensed (e.g., stabilize web flutter at the sensing point).

Using the R55F Series Sensor
RUN Mode
Normal operation of the R55F is called RUN mode. The LED indicators (see
Figure 2) operate as follows in RUN mode:
Output Conducting LED: ON when outputs are active
Delay Configuration Indicator LED: OFF No OFF Delay is programmed
ON 20 or 40-ms OFF Delay is programmed
Light Operate LED: ON to indicate Light Operate configuration
Dark Operate LED: ON to indicate Dark Operate configuration
(NOTE: Since either one of these is always ON when the sensor is operating, the
combined Light/Dark Operate LEDs also provide a functional Power-ON indication.)
10-Segment Light Bar: indicates signal strength, with respect to the sensing
threshold (“Switch Point”).
TEACH Modes
The sensitivity of the R55F may be quickly optimized by using one of two available TEACH modes: Static TEACH or Dynamic
TEACH. Either may be performed using the push buttons on the sensor, or remotely, using a remote switch or process controller
connected to the sensor’s gray wire(see page 8).Either a sensing window or a specific point may be taught.
Static TEACH
In Static TEACH mode, the sensor learns the light condition and the dark condition, each one time. Sensitivity is automatically set
to place the switch point midway between the two conditions. In addition, the condition taught first becomes the output ON
condition.
Sensitivity may be adjusted at any time when the sensor is in RUN mode by clicking the “+” and “-” buttons. Each click translates
to 1/2 segment on the signal strength light bar. For best sensing reliability, the light and dark conditions should register equally
distant from the switch point on the signal strength light bar.
Single-Point TEACH
The R55F sensor also may be taught a single specific target, using an alternate Static TEACH procedure. The sensor will sense
only the mark taught and will ignore signals both stronger and weaker. The sensitivity to the taught mark then may be adjusted up
or down.
To perform single-point TEACH, place the target in front of the sensor. Press and hold the “Static” button until the LO and DO
LEDs begin to flash, then double-click the Static button. If the single point was successfully taught, the two center sections of the
bar graph will flash.
Manually adjust the sensitivity by clicking either the “+” or “-” button; the bar graph will flash two segments centered about the
sensing point. If the sensitivity is increased (-), the two lighted segments will become closer together, and farther apart if the
sensitivity is decreased (+). If the segments do not flash while the sensitivity is being adjusted, the setting has reached its
maximum and cannot be adjusted further.

NOTES:
1) The sensor will return to RUNmode if either TEACH condition is not registered within 90 seconds. Also,
TEACH mode may be cancelled by pressing and holding the push button for ≥ 2 seconds. In either case, the
sensor will revert to the previous conditions taught (i.e., exit without save).
2) If the sensing conditions are accepted at the end of TEACH Condition #2, the signal strength light bar flashes
one of its ten segments for three seconds to indicate relative sensing contrast. The higher the flashing
segment, the higher the measured sensing contrast. High contrast relates directly to sensing reliability. Highcontrast sensing applications are most tolerant of sensing variables, such as web flutter or variations in color
mark color or print density.

Dynamic TEACH
Dynamic TEACH is used to program sensitivity during actual machine run conditions. During
Dynamic TEACH, the R55F samples many color marks against their background material and
automatically sets the sensitivity at the optimum level. Dynamic TEACH activates the sensor’s
adaptive threshold system, which continuously tracks minimum and maximum signal levels, and
automatically maintains centering of the switch point between the light and dark conditions. The
adaptive threshold system remains in effect during RUN mode to automatically adjust for changes
in the light or the dark conditions.
When Dynamic TEACH mode is used to program sensitivity, the output ON state must be assigned
to either the light or dark condition using the SETUP mode (see page 7).
Sensitivity may be adjusted at any time when the sensor is in RUN mode by clicking the “+” and “-”
buttons. However, when a manual adjustment is made, the adaptive threshold system is disabled
(cancelled).

the higher the measured sensing contrast. High contrast relates directly to sensing reliability. High contrast
sensing applications are most tolerant of sensing variables, such as web flutter or variations in color mark
color or print density.
2) If the sensor does not measure enough contrast at the end of Dynamic TEACH, every other segment of the
signal strength light bar flashes in unison for three seconds to warn of unacceptably low contrast, and the
sensor returns to RUN mode with its previously taught conditions.

SETUP Mode
SETUP mode is used to configure sensor output response for:
- Light or Dark operate
- 20- or 40-millisecond pulse stretcher (OFF delay), if required.
It will be necessary to access SETUP mode only if the settings which result from
TEACH mode programming are not the settings required for the application. The
status LEDs indicate the output response configuration when the sensor is in RUN
mode, as follows:
- LO indicator ON = output is light operate
- DO indicator ON = output is dark operate
- OFF Delay indicator ON = either 20- or 40-millisecond delay is programmed
- OFF Delay indicator OFF = no output delay is programmed
To change the output response settings;
1) Press and hold BOTH push buttons until the signal strength light bar turns OFF.
2) Click EITHER push button to toggle through the six possible settings
indicated as follows:

Remote Programming
The gray wire of the R55F may be connected to a remote switch or to a process
controller to:
- Set sensitivity via either Static or Dynamic TEACH mode
- Set output response via SETUP mode
- Disable the push button functions
A remote programming switch is connected between the gray wire and dc common (see
Hookup diagrams on page 11). The switch may be either a normally-open contact, or an
open-collector NPN transistor with its emitter connected to dc common.
Remote programming is accomplished using a specified sequence of input pulses.
The duration of each pulse is defined as:
0.04 seconds < T < 0.8 seconds (40 ms < T< 800 ms)
Remote Static TEACH Mode
1) Present the Output ON condition to the fiber sensing end and pulse the Remote
TEACH input once.
2) Wait at least 0.8 seconds, present the Output OFF condition, and pulse the Remote
TEACH input once.
If sensing contrast is adequate, the sensor flashes one segment of the signal strength
light bar for 3 seconds to indicate relative contrast, and then enters RUN mode.
If contrast is too low, the sensor flashes five segments of the signal strength light bar
in unison to warn of unacceptably low contrast, and returns to re-teach the Output ON
condition (Step 1).
Remote Static Single-Point TEACH
The single-point TEACH may also be performed using the remote wire. Present the
target and single-click the remote wire. Wait for at least 0.8 second, then double-click
the remote wire. If the TEACH is successful, the sensor will flash the middle two LEDs
of the bar graph, and return to RUN mode.
Remote Dynamic TEACH Mode
1) Hold the TEACH input low for > 2 seconds
2) Continue holding the TEACH input low while presenting light and dark sensing
conditions. Open switch when finished teaching.
If sensing contrast is adequate, the sensor flashes one segment of the signal strength
light bar for 3 seconds to indicate relative contrast, and then enters RUN mode.
If contrast is too low, the sensor flashes five segments of the signal strength light bar
in unison to warn of unacceptably low contrast, and returns to RUN mode with its
previously taught conditions.
