DPC Error*
* The DPC indicator blinks.
Wipe the dust off the Fiber Unit detection surface or
other relevant areas and recover the original incident
light level. Then, perform Smart Tuning.
Turn ON the power again. Reset the
settings if the error is not corrected.
Cancel the key lock function.
Check the control output load and adjust it within the
rated value. Check for a load short-circuit.
• Steps 1 and 2 can be reversed.
• The DPC function will be disabled when a smart tuning error occurs, differential function with
maximum sensitivity tuning is performed, or the rst incident light level of the positioning
tuning is low.
• The incident light level is corrected to the power tuning level to maintain stable threshold and
incident light levels. This provides stable detection regardless of the incident level changes
caused by dirty sensor head, position error, or temperature changes.
