● The sensing output can be switched to sensing output 1 or sensing output 2

by holding down the mode key.

● The changed settings are not stored if turning the power OFF while setting.

Therefore, conrm the settings by pressing the SET key before turning the

power OFF.

● When turning ON the power, RUN mode is displayed and the digital display

shows the threshold value (green) and the incident light intensity (red).

How to remove

1.

Push the controller forward.

2. Lift up

1. Push forward

2. Lift up the front part of the amplier

to remove it.

How to connect the ber cable

Be sure to t the attachment to the bers rst before inserting the bers to the
amplier. For details, refer to the Instruction Manual enclosed with the bers.

1. Snap the fiber lock lever down till it
stops completely.

2. Insert the ber cables slowly into the

inlets until they stops. (Note)

3. Return the fiber lock lever to the
original position till it stops.

Note: With the coaxial reective type ber, such as , FD-G4 or FD-FM2, insert the single core ber cable into the

beam-emitting inlet “P” and the multi-core ber cable into the beam-receiving inlet.

If they are inserted in reverse, the sensing performance will deteriorate.

TEACHING MODE

● Be sure that detection may become unstable depending on the use environ-

ment in teaching if less margin is applied.

● When teaching in Window comparator mode or Hysteresis mode, a setting

has to be made in PRO mode beforehand.
In case 1-point teaching, make sure to set the shift amount. (initial value is
10% or 100)
For the setting, refer to “PRO MODE OPERATION MANUAL.”

● Teaching can be set in RUN mode.

Useful when sensing object can be set

● This is basic teaching method.

1-point teaching

[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]

● This is method to set the shift amount to the desired value and to set the

threshold range by using the 1-point teaching.

<Window comparator mode>

Set to de­sired value

1_SL P-1 2_SL

Notes 1)

The shift amount of 10% is an initial value. The shift amount can be set in PRO mode. Furthermore, the shift
value can be set in incident light amount. For setting method, refer to “PRO MODE OPERATION MANUAL.”

2) If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.

Set to de­sired value

1. Pressing SET key down

2. Press the SET key down in the sensing object present condition.

3. The threshold value (1_SL) that is 10% lower from the incident

light intensity and the threshold value (2_SL) that is 10% higher
from the incident light intensity are set. (Note 1, 2)

2-point teaching

[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]

● This is method to set the threshold range by conducting the 2-point teaching (P-1, P-2).

● When conducting teaching, use sensing objects (P-1 and P-2) whose incident

light intensities are different from each other.

<Window comparator mode>

<Hysteresis mode>

2. Press the SET key in the sensing object absent condition.

or

1. Press the SET key in the sensing
object present condition or non
sensing object present condition.

2. The threshold level is shifted to
high value (low sensitivity) by
pressing down UP key.

The threshold level is shifted to low

value (high sensitivity) by pressing
down UP key.

Stable sensing is possible

Stable sensing is not possible

Note: The shift value of approx. 15% is an initial value. Display of the shift value can be change in percentage

[approx. 0 to 999% (unit 1 %)] or incident light intensity [0 to 9999 (unit 1)].

For setting the shift amount, refer to “PRO MODE OPERATION MANUAL.”

Useful when not want to stop production line and to keep the sensing object move

3-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]

● This is the method to conduct the 3-point teaching (P-1, P-2, P-3) and to set the

threshold range by setting the threshold value (1_SL) of the mid-point between “A”
and “B” and the threshold value (2_SL) of the mid-point between “B” and “C”.

● When conducting teaching, use sensing objects (A, B and C) whose incident

light intensities are different.

● After teaching, P-1, P-2 and P-3 will be automatically relocated in ascending order:

i.e. the lowest value is placed in “A”, the second lowest in “B” and the highest in “C”.
