Safety precautions on laser products
Warning
FDA(CDRH) Part 1040.10*Class 1 Laser Product
* The classification is implemented based on IEC60825-1 following the
requirements of Laser Notice No.50 of FDA (CDRH).
• U se of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
• This product employs a semiconductor laser for its light source.
• Follow the instructions mentioned in this manual. Otherwise, injury
to the human body (eyes and skin) may result.
Precautions on class 1 laser products
•
Do not disassemble this product. Laser emission from this product
is not automatically stopped when it is disassembled.
The laser emission can be stopped by selecting the “Laser emission stop” signal
(20 ms or more) from the input functions and inputting it externally.
The emission stops while the signal is being input. The laser beam is emitted in 20 ms
after the signal input is canceled. The control output functions according to the
received light intensity even while laser emission stop is input.
Note
When the power is turned on, even when the laser emission stop signal is
input, the laser is emitted for about 60 ms for self-diagnostic purpose.

■ % calibration (not available for the LV-S31)
This is a calibration method that can set the setting value by percentage with
reference to the received light intensity at the time of sensitivity setting. For
example, if the target value is set to –10P, the setting value is determined 10%
lower than the received light intensity when the SET button is pressed.
By regularly performing external calibration from the device such as a PLC,
even a little sensitivity difference can be steadily detected.
Note
The % calibration function cannot be used when the DSC function is turned
on or the zero datum calibration is being used.
1 When selecting the sensitivity
setting method (page 7, No. 5),
select the % calibration, and set
the target value of calibration.
(The value can be set by 1%.)
2 Taking the desired light intensity as
a reference (normally without a
workpiece), press the SET button.
* While the % calibration is in use, other calibrations (sensitivity setting) can-
not be used.
* The setting value is calculated based on the intermediate value between
MAX. and MIN. of the received light intensity while the SET button is being
pressed. The conditions in acquiring the sampling value can be changed
using the procedure to set the special modes.
■ Edge detection (not available for the LV-S31)

AutoControl output 2 acts as an alarm output.
uSErControl output 2 performs a usual operation.
■ Alarm output level (rtio) setting
Specify the level at which to output an alarm when the received light intensity
changes as moderately as the control output stays off (specifying the moderate fluctuation alarm level).
DSC is not performed during a period when the received light intensity falls
below the alarm level.
Specified range: 0 to 100%
100%: The moderate fluctuation alarm is not output.
50%: An alarm is output when the received light intensity changes from the
background state up to half the setting value.
0%: An alarm is output when the received light intensity gets any closer to
the setting value from the background state.
Note
Normally use the setting at 50%. Smaller values can affect the response and
prevent the alarm from becoming cleared.

DSC (Dynamic Stability Control)
DSC automatically corrects the setting value according to the changes in the
received light intensity when there is no workpiece (output OFF).
This function is effective when the light intensity difference is small when
judging whether or not there is a workpiece. At Detection mode selection
(page 7, No.4), select "".*
How to set the sensitivity is the same as in the normal mode.
* The value is stored in memory even after the power is turned off.
Note
•
When connected to a sensor head other than LV-S31/S41/S41L, the DSC function turns on automatically when the zero datum calibration is performed and
operates while turned on when there is blocked light. When other calibrations are
performed in this state, the DSC function is turned off.
Shift Function
Forcibly synchronizes the received light intensity with the preset value (shift
target value). (Adds and subtracts the received light intensity.)
Regular synchronization inputs from a PLC or other device stabilizes the
detection of the target that has a little light intensity difference.
Note
The shift function cannot be used when the DSC function is turned on or the
zero datum calibration is being used.

Tips on Correct Use
• To extend the amplifier unit cable, use the cable with the nominal crosssectional area no less than 0.3 mm
m. (Contact your nearest KEYENCE office when in the event of additional
installation.)
• Separate the wiring of the sensor cable from the power line or the high voltage line, since the use of these lines in the same pipe generates noise,
which may cause malfunction or product breakdown.
• If you use a commercially available switching regulator, be sure to ground
the frame GND terminal and the GND terminal.
• Do not use the LV-S Series at a location where external light directly falls on
the light-receiving surface.
• When setting the sensitivity, the detection distance may vary depending on
the individual characteristics.
• If you wire the unit incorrectly, the LV-S Series may become hot, or the sensitivity may change.
• Do not connect the sensor head connector to the amplifier unit more than
100 times.
• Displayed values may slightly change depending on the environment (temperature shift, dust, etc.).
