Description

Emission 
level

If the incident light intensity is saturated, which makes 
sensing impossible or unreliable, you can reduce the 
emission level.

 

Level 3 (

): Normal

 

Level 2 (

): Approx. 40% of normal

 

Level 1 (

): Approx. 20% of normal

When you select Auto ( ), proper light intensity is 
automatically set only during limit teaching.

For differences between the conventional and 

modified units, see 

unIt VErsIons

 on page 

7.

When using fiber heads in parallel, interference can be 

prevented by setting different emission frequencies. 
When emission frequency 0 is set, interference cannot 
be prevented. Response time corresponds to emission 
frequency. For details, see

Emission frequencies available:

The operation indicator and the beam-emitting inlet blink while the 
emission frequency is being set. When the emission frequency is 
set to 0, they light up. The blinking cycle depends on each emission 

frequency (emission frequency 1: fast ↔ emission frequency 4: 

slow).

2-point teaching

2-point teaching is the most common teaching method and means the 
threshold value is taught using two points that correspond to the object 
present and object absent conditions. 

Light-ON or Dark-ON is determined automatically for the output operation 
setting.

Output indicator ON when object is present

In teaching mode, press <ON> when object is present to set 

the first incident light intensity.
