2-2 Connecting and Mounting the Sensor Head

Mounting the Sensor Head

 Mounting

Mount the sensor head with the enclosed screws (IB-01/IB-05/IB-10: M3, IB-30: M4).

Tightening torque: 0.3 N·m or less (Tightening torque for IB-01: 0.1 N·m or less)

Point

• Always use mounting holes facing the same direction for the sensor head transmitter and receiver. (Excluding IB-01)

•Do not tighten the screws with a torque exceeding 0.3 N·m. The sensor head could deform, thus preventing beam axis alignment.

Important

When mounting the sensor, confirm that the transmitter and receiver faces on which the nameplate label is attached are facing the same direction. (Only for IB-30)

Attaching the sensor head cable connector (OP-87060)

Cut the sensor head cable to the required length and attach the new connector to use the sensor. The connection method is the same for the transmitter and receiver.

1	Cut the cable to the required length and strip approx. 15 mm of insulation
	from the end.

		Point		Do not strip the core wire insulation.
2
	Insert each color coded cable into the same colored marked points on the
	connector.

Each cable is secured temporarily when it is inserted completely.

Confirm that all the cables are inserted properly into the connector and

crimp them using pliers or a similar tool.

Point

Once the connector has been installed, make sure to connect it to the amplifier and confirm that the sensor operates normally.

If the sensor head does not function properly, crimp the connector again using pliers or a similar tool.

Once the connector is crimped, it cannot be reused.

Operations Basic

3-1 Operation when the Power is Turned On for the First Time

When the amplifier is turned on for the first time after the sensor head is connected, the initial setting display appears. Make the initial setting according to the following procedure as this is necessary for both the main unit and the expansion units when units are added.

Point

Once the initial setting is completed, the initial setting display will not appear when the power is turned on the second time or the after. To change the initial setting, perform the initial reset.
