CE Marking

Keyence Corporation has confirmed that this product complies with the essential requirements of the applicable EC Directive, based on the following specifications. Be sure to consider the following specifications when using this product in a member state of the European Union.

EMC Directive (2004/108/EC)

z
Applicable standard EMI : 60947-5-2, Class A
When connecting with the NU-CL1, always install in a conductive enclosure (control panel,
etc.), and wrap a ferrite core (E04SR401938 manufactured by Seiwa Electric Mfg. Co., Ltd.) one turn around the sensor head cable.
When extending the Sensor Head Cable of the PS-47(C)/49(C)/05/52(C)/55(C)/56/58, cover
the entire Sensor Head Cable with conductive piping (for example with metal piping). Also, ground the end part of the piping (the sensor amplifier side).
Remarks: These specifications do not give any guarantee that the end-product with this prod-
uct incorporated complies with the essential requirements of the EMC Directive. The manufacturer of the end-product is solely responsible for the compliance of the end-product itself according to the EMC Directive.

product. Do not use this product in a hazardous location and/or potentially explosive atmosphere.
This product uses DC power. Do not apply AC power. The prod-

When using a commercially available switching regulator,
ground the frame ground terminal and ground terminal.
Do not use the PS-N10 series outdoors, or in a place where
extraneous light can enter the light-receiving element directly.
Due to individual dispersion characteristics and the difference
in sensor head models, the maximum sensing distance or dis­played value may not be the same on all units.

Point
Contact your nearest KEYENCE office when connecting units other than the N-bus (name of KEYEN CE’s wire-saving system) compatible sensor amplifier, including PS-N10 Series, or the NU Series commu­nication module.
Turn the power off before connecting multiple expansion units.
Do not touch the expansion connector with your bare hands.
When using the PS-N10 series as a main unit, verify that expansion
products used (other than PS-N10 series expansion units) can oper­ate within the power voltage range of the PS-N10 series.

1 Press the [SET] button with no workpiece.
[
SET] will be displayed on the sub-menu (green display).
2 Press the [SET] button with a workpiece.
When complete, the values will be set and the submenu (green display) will flash. The set point will be calibrated to the mid-point between the light intensity when there is no work­piece, and the light intensity when there is a workpiece.

Simple Setup Functions

Simple Display: Adjusting the Current Value to 100.0

With the PS-N10 Series, the current value can be set to 100.0 through simple key operations. Using a constant current value is useful for predictive maintenance allowing you to find the sen­sor amplifier for which the received light intensity has decreased.
Point
Reference

Preset Function

z
This function calibrates the current value to "100.0" when the [PRESET] button is pr essed in the light-ON state.
Neither preset function below can be used in combination with the
zero shift function. Always disable the zero shift function before using the preset function.
The preset function is not suitable for detecting workpieces which
have a small received light intensity, such as transparent work­pieces, etc.
Refer to the "PS-N10 Series User's Manual" for the operation method
of analog output in respect to the preset display.
Press and hold the [PRESET] button to disable each preset function.

Maximum Sensitivity Preset Function

z
This function sets conditions that will serve as reference to ".0" and adjusts conditions with slightly higher light intensity to "100.0". This is useful when you would like to perform detec- tion using the background as a reference with reflective models. Under the following conditions, press and hold the [PRESET] button for 3 seconds or more. Then release your finger when "Auto" flashes.

Target-Preset Function

z
This function calibrates the current value to ".0". After the preset function has been executed to display "100.0", execute this function to dis- play ".0". Two random points can be calibrated to "100.0" and ".0".
If the button and [PRESET] button are pressed simultaneously, the current value is set to ".0" at that point. The value set to "100.0" with the [PRESET] function does not change.
• This function is especially useful when performing simple detection (sensor beam completely interrupted by a non-transparent object) using the thru-beam model / retro-reflective model sensor heads. When using multiple Neo Series units, the display can be easily stan­dardized with this function.
Important
The target-preset function can be used in combination with the standard preset function (when use of the preset function is valid).

Full Auto Preset Function

This function automatically differentiates between two conditions (presence/absence of workpiece) and adjusts the current values to "100.0" and ".0".

Reference
The light intensity may not be set to ".0" when the reflective model sen- sor head is first installed. In this case, using the zero shift function to set the state with no target present to ".0" will make it easier to see the difference in light intensities.
