Safety Precautions on Laser Product

This product uses a semiconductor laser as its light source.

•Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

•Follow the instructions mentioned in this manual. Otherwise, injury to the human body (eyes and skin) may result.

•Laser emission from this product is not automatically stopped when it is disassembled. Do not disassemble this product.

•Precautions on Class 2 Laser Product

- Do not stare into the direct or specularly reflected beam.

WARNING	- Do not direct the beam at people or into areas where people
	might be present.
	- Be careful of the path of the laser beam.
	If there is a possibility that the operator may be exposed to the
	specular or diffuse reflections, block the beam by installing a
	protective enclosure.

-Install this product so that the path of the laser beam is not as the same height as that of human eye.

•Precautions on Class 1 Laser Product

-Do not stare into the direct or specularly reflected beam.

2 Installation and Wiring

Installation

•Tightening torque for the mounting holes: 1.5 N·m (M4 screw)

•If the detecting object has a mirrored surface, install the sensor in a position where specular reflection will not penetrate the optical receiver.

Wiring

With the LR-TB Series, you can select the functions of the I/O wires (black and white) from the combinations shown below during the initial settings. "3 Initial Settings" (page 3) Independently isolate any I/O wires that you will not use.
