The model No. of retroreflective type sensor with the suffix ‘-Y’ is the sensor without the RF-230 reflector. (e.g.) CX-491-Y

2) The retroreflective type sensor with polarizing filters may not stably detect specular or glossy objects through transparent film since light is polarized by the transparent film. For details, refer to ‘m RETROREFLECTIVE TYPE SENSOR WITH POLARIZING FILTERS’.

3) The sensing range and the sensing object for the retroreflective type sensor is specified for the RF-230 reflector. Further, make sure to mount the sensor and the reflector 0.1m, or more, away from each other.

4) The sensing range of the diffuse reflective type sensor and the narrowview reflective type sensor is specified for white non-glossy paper (200× 200mm) as the object.

5) By mounting interference prevention filters (PF-CX4-M), two sets of the sensor can be mounted close together. For details, refer to ‘.INTERFERENCE PREVENTION FILTER (OPTIONAL)’.

CAUTIONS

䢇 Make sure to carry out wiring in the power supply

off condition.

䢇

Take care that wrong wiring will damage the sensor.

䢇

Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.

䢇

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.

䢇 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.

䢇 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.

Description

Light-ON mode is obtained when the operation mode switch (located on the receiver) is turned fully clockwise (L side).

Dark-ON mode is obtained when the operation mode switch (located on the receiver) is turned fully counterclockwise (D side).

q Set the operation mode switch to the Light-ON

mode position (L side).

w Placing the emitter and the receiver face to face

along a straight line, move the emitter in the up, down, left and right directions, in order to determine the range of the light received condition with the help of the operation indicator (orange). Then, set the emitter at the center of this range.

e Similarly, adjust for up, down, left and right angu-

lar movement of the emitter.

r Further, perform the angular adjustment for the

receiver also.

t Check that the stability indicator (green) lights up. y Choose the operation mode, Light-ON or Dark-ON,

as per your requirement, with the operation mode switch.

䢇 Sensitivity adjustment

Step

Sensitivity adjuster

Optimum position

Turn the sensitivity adjuster fully counterclockwise to the minimum sensitivity position, MIN.

In the light received condition, turn the sensitivity adjuster slowly clockwise and confirm the point A where the sensor enters the ‘Light’ state operation.

In the dark condition, turn the sensitivity adjuster further clockwise until the sensor enters the ‘Light’ state operation and then bring it back to confirm point B where the sensor just returns to the ‘Dark’ state operation.

If the sensor does not enter the ‘Light’ state operation even when the sensitivity adjuster is turned fully clockwise, the position is point

()

The position at the middle of points A and B is the optimum sensing position.

(Example of sensing objects)

• Can wrapped by clear film

• Aluminum sheet covered by plastic film

• Gold or silver color (glossy) labels or wrapping paper

(Steps)

• Tilt the sensor with respect to the sensing object upon fitting.

• Reduce the sensitivity.

• Increase the distance between the sensor and the sensing object.
