Data Assignments
Each ID number is assigned an output, setting value, current value, and external input.

External input External input
Output Output 1 Output 2
Setting value Setting value of output 1 Setting value of output 2
Current value Received light intensity (Not used)
External input External input (Not used)
The external input can be used after configuring the "Control Input"parameter
of each sensor. (By default, "Control Input" is set to "0: Not use.") The models
FS-N10/N12* do not have an external input wire, but they can utilize external
input via network by using a network unit.
