• Before starting or operating the system, check to make sure all system functions are working properly.

• If any Keyence product fails, take all safety precautions to prevent damage before using the system again.

• If the system is operated beyond its published specifications or if the system is modified, its functions and

performance cannot be guaranteed.

• Please note that when the system is used in combination with other devices, its functions and performance

may be negatively affected.

• Do not use this product for the purpose to protect a human body or a part of human body.

• This product is not intended for use as explosion-proof product. Do not use this product in a hazardous

location and/or potentially explosive atmosphere.

• Do not subject the controller or connected devices to a sudden change in temperature, as condensation may

occur.

Warning

General

• Do not use with any power voltage other than 24 V DC. Doing so may cause fire, electric shock, or product

malfunction.

• Do not disassemble or modify the unit. Doing so may cause fire or electric shock.

Operating environment and conditions

• For safe and proper use of the controller, avoid installing it in the following locations: Doing so may cause fire,

electric shock, or product malfunction.

• For ventilation, ensure a minimum of 50 mm of space above the controller unit and 50 mm of space on either side. So that the cables can be safely connected, ensure a minimum of 90 mm of space in front of the controller connector panel.

• When two or more controllers are installed side by side, ensure a minimum of 50 mm of space between the controllers, and 50 mm above both controllers.

50mm

Note

• Do not block the ventilation openings on the top and bottom of the controller. If the vents are blocked, heat will accumulate inside the controller and can cause system failure.

• If the temperature inside the control panel (temperature at the top of the front of the controller) exceeds the recommended specification, use forced air-cooling or increase the free space around the controller to improve ventilation until the operating ambient temperature drops below the recommended specification.

Installing the Camera

Notes on Electrical Insulation

• The camera case acts as the ground for the camera circuit. If the installation bracket or mount has any electrical potential or noise, it may cause internal damage and malfunction. For secure insulation, be sure to use the plastic mounting bracket and screws that are supplied with the controller when installing the camera.

• If the supplied plastic mounting parts are not used in the installation, take care to insulate adequately.

1 Install the lens on the camera.

Select an appropriate lens according to the size of the object or distance between the object and the

camera (Page 2-9).

Lens

Note

• Do not touch the inside of the camera when installing the lens.

• Take care to ensure dust and/or foreign material does not enter into the camera.

2 Install the camera using the screw holes provided on the plastic mount.

There are three types of screw holes. Use the standard camera connection and appropriate screw

holes suitable for the mounting setup.

Note

• When installing the camera, use a tightening torque of 0.5 Nm and a maximum tension of 30 N.

• Leave enough space around the lens to ensure easy adjustment of the focus and aperture (Page 2-34).

• If the camera is mounted where there is vibration, the lens mount or the lock screw for the lens may loosen. Use

of a locking bond adhesive is recommended in such a case.

• Mounting the provided plastic mount on a side other than the bottom of the camera can cause gaps between

the mount and the camera. If the installation needs to be very precise, try to fix the mount to the bottom of the camera.

Reference

To allow for future adjustment of the camera, an optional XY stage is available (CA-S2040). Using slot holes for the mounting screws of the camera will allow for similar adjustments to be made.
