4-1. NAVI Mode Functions and Settings

In [NAVI mode], frequently changed settings can be easily configured. Settings for four functions can be configured.

RUN :

Normal Sensing Operation

TEACH : Teaching Mode

This indicates normal sensing operation. Incident light intensity is displayed in real time. When set to factory settings, the ‘threshold value’ cannot be manually changed. When the ‘Adjust Lock Setting Function’ in ‘PRO5 Mode’ is disabled, manual fine adjustment of the ‘threshold value’ can be performed during normal sensing operation.

This mode sets the ‘threshold value’ by utilizing teaching.

When using FX-301,FX-303 or FX-302 normal mode

The ‘threshold value’ can be set by utilizing either ‘2-level teaching’ or ‘limit teaching’, and the ‘threshold value’ for the FX-301B/G/H can be set using these and also ‘full-auto teaching’.

2-level teaching is a method of setting the threshold value by teaching the amplifier unit two different status conditions - sensing object present and sensing object not present. The ‘threshold value’ is usually set using this method.

1-level Teaching

When using FX-302 window comparator mode The ‘threshold value’ can be set with any of the 3 teaching methods, ‘1-level teaching’, ‘2-level teaching’ and ‘3-level teaching’. By setting two ‘threshold values’, both ON and OFF can occur between the two threshold value levels.

This is the method of setting the threshold values (1_SL, 2_SL) by one level (P-1) teaching. The shift value can be set as desired.

This mode allows fine adjustment of the ‘threshold value’ setting. When the incident light intensity display has been selected, the threshold value can be adjusted in increments as low as a one digit. When the percentage display has been selected, the threshold value can be adjusted in increments of one digit (varies depending on the ‘threshold value’). However, when FX-302 is in window comparator mode, the percentage display function cannot be utilized. * The factory setting is 40.

When set to ‘Light-ON’, the output will be ON if the incident light intensity becomes greater than the ‘threshold value’. When set to ‘Dark-ON’, the output will be ON if the incident light intensity becomes less than the ‘threshold value’.

When set to ‘Light-ON’, if the incident light intensity is between the two ‘threshold value’ levels, the output will be ON. If the incident light intensity is outside of the two threshold value levels, the output will be OFF. When set to ‘Dark-ON’, if the incident light intensity is between the two ‘threshold value’ levels, the output will be OFF. If the incident light intensity is outside of the two threshold value levels, the output will be ON.

4If the [Jog switch] is pressed while in the status condition

when a sensing object is present that can be used as a standard for the lower limit, then the display will blink and indicate the intensity of incident light.

When using thru-beam type fibers

•

Press the [Jog switch] for the sensing object that has the greatest amount of blocked light.

When using reflective type fibers

• Press the [Jog switch] for the sensing object with the lowest intensity of incident light.

Note) Even if procedures 4 and 6 are reversed, teaching for a

sensing object with low intensity incident light will automatically cause the setting of ‘lower limit value 1_SL’.

6If the [Jog switch] is pressed while in the status condition

when a sensing object is present that can be used as a standard for the upper limit, then the display will blink and indicate the incident light intensity. When utilizing thru-beam type fibers

• Press the [Jog switch] for the sensing object that has the least amount of blocked light.

When utilizing reflective type fibers

• Press the [Jog switch] for the sensing object with the greatest incident light intensity .

5The unit has entered the ‘P-2’ setting state and ‘TEACH’

Threshold Value Fine Adjustment Mode (when using FX-301, FX-303 or FX-302 normal mode)

This mode allows fine adjustment of the ‘threshold value’ setting.

1 Press the [MODE key] twice to select the ‘threshold value

fine adjustment mode’.

2 The current ‘threshold value’ will be displayed. * The factory setting is 40.

3 If the [Jog switch] is moved toward the ‘’ or ‘’ direction,

the ‘threshold value’ will change and the new value will blink. If an increased ‘threshold value’ is desired, move the [Jog switch] toward the ‘

’ direction.

If a decreased ‘threshold value’ is desired, move the [Jog switch] toward the ‘

’ direction.

4 If the [Jog switch] is pressed, the digital display will quickly

blink 3 times, confirming the setting of the currently displayed ‘threshold value’.
