Note:	■ Influence of Ambient Operating Temperature
	Ensure that the ambient operating temperature is constant. A
	change in the ambient operating temperature may result in
	measurement errors. If the ambient operating temperature
	changes by 10°C, it will take approximately 60 minutes for the
	interior temperature distribution of the LS-7600 Series to be
	uniform.
	■ Warming Up
	Do not operate the LS-7600 Series for approximately 30 minutes
	after it is turned on. The internal circuitry of the LS-7600 Series is
	not stable immediately after it is turned on. The measured value
	drifts gradually as a result.
	■ Influence of Dust and Dirt
	A measurement error may result due to dirt, dust, water, or oil in
	any of the following cases.
	• Cover glass: Blow off the dirt, dust, water or oil on the cover
		glass with clean air. If the cover glass is excessively dirty, wipe
		the glass with a soft cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol.
	•	Target surface: Blow off the dirt, dust, water or oil on the sur-
		face with clean air or wipe the surface.
	•	Intrusion of dirt, dust, water or oil blown or sprayed into optical
		sensing area: Install a protection cover or perform air purging.
	■ Influence of Vibration
	The measured value of an object may fluctuate if the object is
	vibrating. If that happens, increase the averaging number. This
	will ensure highly accurate measurement.
	■ Targets
	The measured value of an object may have an error due to the
	shape and surface condition. Locate a reference object within the
	measuring area and use the calibration function of the LS-7600
	Series to correct the error if that happens.
	■ Influence of Air Flow
	The measured value of an object may fluctuate due to a slow
	flow of air. In that case, the following countermeasures are
	effective.
	• Protect the measuring head with a cover.
	• Use a fan to mix the air vigorously between the transmitter and
		receiver.
	■ Maintenance
	Do not wipe the LS-7600 Series with a damp cloth or a cloth
	moistened with benzine or paint thinner. This may cause the
	discoloration or deformation of the LS-7600 Series. If the LS-
	7600 Series is excessively dirty, use a tightly squeezed cloth
	moistened with thin neutral detergent. Then wipe the LS-7600
	Series with a soft dry cloth.

■ Precautions for LED

The LS-7010M/LS-7030M/LS-7070M Measuring Head uses an LED light source. Abide by
the following precautions when using the unit.
		• Do not look at the LED light source for a long time.
	CAUTION
		The LED used as the light source is classified into class 1
		according to IEC60825-1 standards. Basically the light beam of
		the LED is safe, but do not look at the LED for a long time.
		• Do not disassemble the unit.
		The unit does not incorporate a mechanism to stop the emission
		of the LED when the unit is disassembled. Never attempt to
		disassemble the unit, otherwise you will be exposed to LED light.	iii

Outline and Features of LS-7600 Series

The LS-7600 Series is a high-speed, high-accuracy digital micrometer used for the dimen- 1 sional measurement of objects without coming into contact with the objects. It is such a

versatile model that it has a wide range of applications including in-line measurement and offline measurement.

■ Special Features

High-speed Sampling of 2400 Times per Second

Ensures high-speed sampling that is twice as fast as the sampling speed of conventional models. The continuous measurement of extruded products and the in-line measurement of moving workpieces are possible.

Repeat Accuracy of ±0.15μm

Incorporates the latest optical system, thus ensuring excellent repeat accuracy that is twice as high as the accuracy of conventional models, thus supporting the manufacture of high-precision products.

Connecting Two Measuring Heads for two-channel Simultaneous Measurement

Two measuring heads can be used in combination for the simultaneous measurement of two targets.

Stable Detection of Transparent Objects with Threshold Change

The threshold change function supported by the DE processor makes it possible to detect transparent objects stably.

Incorporates a Target Viewer Function for Measurement Point Monitoring

Incorporates a CMOS image sensor to monitor targets, thus making it possible to check measurement points no matter how complicated in shape the targets are.

Easy-to-use Remote Control Console

A simple, interactive menu is used on the handheld remote control console for ease of operation.

A Variety of Inspection Functions

Incorporates a group comparison function and statistical processing function.

Chapter 1 Getting Started

■ Principle of Measurement

The high-intensity GaN green LED radiates light, which will be changed into uniform parallel light through the special diffusion unit and collimator lens and emitted to the

target in the measuring range. Then the shadow image of the target will appear on the 1 HL-CCD (high-speed linear CCD) through the telecentric optical system. The output

incident signal of the HL-CCD will be processed by the DE (digital edge-detection) processor in the controller and CPU. As a result, the dimensions of the target will be displayed and output.
