When the setting switch is pressed and held for 2 sec. or more, 'SET' mode (mode setting screen) is activated. If the setting switch is pressed while in 'SET' mode, the mode will change. If the threshold value adjuster is turned while a mode is active, the setting item will change and blink. When the setting switch is pressed at the item you would like to set, it blinks 3 times and then the setting is confirmed and the mode switches to the next mode. If the setting switch is pressed and held for 2 sec. or more or do not press any key for 15 sec. while 'SET' mode is active, the mode will switch automatically to 'RUN'mode.

Make sure that the power supply is off while adding or removing the amplifiers. Make sure to check the allowable ambient temperature, as it depends on the number of amplifiers connected in cascade. In case two, or more, amplifiers are connected in cascade, make sure to mount them on a DIN rail. When the amplifiers move on the DIN rail depending on the attaching condition or the amplifiers are mounted close to each other in cascade, fit them between the optional end plates (MS-DIN-E) mounted at the two ends. Up to maximum 15 amplifiers can be added (total 16 amplifiers connected in cascade.) When connecting more than two amplifiers in cascade, use the sub cable (CN-71-Cغ) as the quick-connection cable for the second amplifier onwards. When connecting amplifiers not close to each other in parallel, be sure to mount the optional end plate (MS-DIN-E) at both sides of each amplifier or affix the communication window seal of the optional amplifier protection seal (FX-MB1) to the communication windows. For details, refer to the instruction manual enclosed with the FX-MB1. When the connector type and the cable type or different LED (red / blue / green) types are connected in cascade, mount the identical models together. When this product is used with the other digital fiber amplifiers, be sure to place this product to the left most position (When you look from the connector side). If this product is not placed to the leftmost position, this product may not operate properly.

Make sure that the power supply is off while connecting  disconnecting the amplifiers and the quick-connection cables.

MOUNTING

35mm width DIN rail

ԘԙFit the rear part of the mounting section of the amplifier

on a DIN rail. Press down the rear part of the mounting section of the unit on the DIN rail and fit the front part of the mounting section to the DIN rail.

How to mount the amplifier

ԘԙPush the amplifier forward.

Lift up the front part of the amplifier to remove it.

Take care that if the front part is lifted without pushing the amplifier forward, the hook on the rear portion of the mounting section is likely to break.

Note:

Fiber lock lever

Fiber

How to connect the fiber cables

Ԙ ԙ

Snap the fiber lock lever down. Insert the fiber cables slowly into the inlets until they stop. (Note 1) Return the fiber lock lever to the original position, till it stops.

Notes: 1)2)In case the fiber cables are not inserted to a position where

they stop, the sensing range reduces. In case of a flexible fiber, take care that it may bend inside the amplifier, during insertion. With the coaxial reflective type fiber, such as, FD-G4 or FD-FM2, insert the single-core fiber cable into the beam-emitting inlet and the multi-core fiber cable into the beam-receiving inlet. If they are inserted in reverse, the sensing accuracy will deteriorate.

Be sure to fit the attachment to the fibers first before inserting the fibers to the amplifier. For details, refer to the instruction manual enclosed with the fibers.

Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring.

THRESHOLD VALUE (SENSITIVITY) ADJUSTMENT

Ԙ Check the incident light intensity [in the digital

display (red)] when a sensing object is placed in the sensing position.

ԙ Check the incident light intensity [in the digital

display (red)] when the sensing object is removed from the sensing position.

Ԛ Turn the threshold value adjuster to the

threshold value [in the digital display (green)] that is the value in between Ԙ and ԙ. (The threshold value is automatically written to the EEPROM.)

(Incident light intensity)

(Threshold value)

Sensing object

When the threshold value adjuster is turned clockwise, the threshold value increases. When the threshold value adjuster is turned counterclockwise, the threshold value decreases.

If there is a sufficient level of margin in the incident light intensity, the stability indicator (green) will light up.

This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only. Take care that wrong wiring will damage the sensor. Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring. Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating. Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is applied, or if an AC power supply is directly connected, the sensor may get burnt or damaged. In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.) is used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the equipment to an actual ground. If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground. Do not use during the initial transient time (0.5 sec.) after the power supply is switched on. Take care that short-circuit of the load or wrong wiring may burn or damage the sensor. Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines or put them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction. Extension up to total 100m (if 5 to 8 units are connected in cascade: 50m, if 9 to 16 units are connected in cascade: 20m) is possible with 0.3mm2, or more, cable. However, in order to reduce noise, make the wiring as short as possible. Take care that cable extension increases the residual voltage. This sensor is suitable for indoor use only. Avoid dust, dirt, and steam. Take care that the product does not come in contact with water, oil, grease, organic solvents, such as, thinner, etc., strong acid or alkaline. This sensor cannot be used in an environment containing inflammable or explosive gases. Never disassemble or modify the sensor. The changes to the settings are written to the EEPROM, but because the EEPROM has a limited service life, you should avoid changing the settings any more than 1 million times.
