For instructions
Do not turn OFF the power while setting the items or saving the settings. Otherwise, all or
part of the setting data may be lost.
Do not let water, dust or oil stick to the camera/light of the sensor. Failure to do so may cause
a malfunction.
The enclosure rating of the monitor (IV-M30) is IP40. This is not designed for water proof so be
careful to operate it.
When this product becomes dirty, do not rub it with a wet cloth, benzene, thinner, or alcohol.
Doing so may change the color or shape of the unit.
If the unit is heavily contaminated, disconnect all the cables including the power supply cable,
wipe off the dirt with a cloth soaked with mild detergent, and then wipe with a soft dry cloth.
For an LCD panel
Do not press the touch panel with the tip of your nail or anything that has a sharp tip such as
a pen or a screwdriver. Doing so may cause damage.
Do not apply shock to the touch panel or press it with excessive force. Doing so may cause
damage.
The LCD panel may have some dots that are always lit (bright dots) or ones that are always
unlit (black dots). This phenomenon is not a problem.
Due to the unique characteristics of an LCD, displaying the same image for a long time may
cause an afterimage.
For USB memory
Use products recommended by KEYENCE.
A USB memory device with a security function cannot be used.
Unplug the USB memory when turning on or off the power of IV Series.
Do not remove the USB memory while the USB is being written on. Otherwise, all or part of
the setting data may be lost or it may cause a damage.
For external master image registration
When the external master image registration is used frequently, set [Write ROM when using “Ext.
Master Save”?] of the input option to [No] for nonvolatile memory protection of the internal
sensor. When the option is set to [Yes], the nonvolatile memory is guaranteed to write for
100,000 times.
For automatic focus function
Automatic focus function is used for adjusting the focusing position at the time of installation.
This will not activate during the operation.
Focusing position can be registered in each program. The program congurations are guaranteed
to switch for 100,000 times. If the focusing position does not need to change for each program,
set [Auto Focus Adj Pos] to [Common] for extending the life-span.
Do not apply shock or vibration during the focusing position adjustment. Failure to do so may
cause a product damage.

IV Series
The IV Series is an all-in-one “Vision Sensor” featuring a camera, a light, and a controller. This sensor
can be attached easily so complicated detection operations such as detecting the shapes of parts with a
photoelectric switch can be achieved easily.
Operation condition settings require the intelligent monitor (IV-M30) or the IV software IV-Navigator (IV-H1).
After setting is completed, the sensor can be operated independently.
The sensor with monitor and the sensor with PC are connected via an Ethernet so network connection with
multiple sensors besides direct single connection can be performed.

Installation and Connection
(FG) of the power I/O cable.
Mount and insulate the sensor. Use the
attached mounting adapter to insulate.
Sensor case has been grounded. If the sensor
is not insulated, the electric potential and
noises may cause a damage or malfunction.
Do not place the sensor in the environment
that exceeds the limit of sensor's resistance
to the environment, or environment that
propagates the vibration directly to the
sensor. Those may cause a damage or
malfunction.
Checking the view and installed distance
For IV Series, installed distance between the view
and object is different depending on the type of the
sensor. Check the type of the sensor to be used
and its view, and place it in the proper distance.
View H
Indicator light
View V
Manual focus type needs to adjust the focusing
position after installed. Reserve the enough
space to adjust and install it.
At the time of installation, it is better to enable
the position or direction adjustment of the
sensor by installing the adjustment system at
the sensor mounting area.
View and optical axis have individual differences.
Adjust the position by checking the actual image
at the time of installation.
Place the sensor where no ambient light has
effect. Ambient light includes solar light, lights of
other devices, and photoelectric sensors. Also,
be careful when the light intensity of the ambient
light changes. Use the shield to protect when the
location cannot be changed.
Place the sensor where no object can block out
the internal light or the view of the sensor.
Detection may become unstable due to the
lights if multiple sensors are placed nearby each
other. Delay the timing of external trigger or use
the shield to avoid interference.
