Auxiliary output (AUX 1/2)
The auxiliary output is an optional output for monitoring the status of the light curtain.
It is provided at the bottom of the emitter and receiver.
Do not use the auxiliary output for safety purposes. This output cannot be deactivated.
(1) Example of output mode
※
Example is based on the factory default.
•
AUX 1(receiver) - output mode: OSSD, output phase: Reverse
•
AUX 2(emitter) - output mode: Error/Lockout, output phase: Reverse

(2) Set auxiliary output mode
Select the output mode first and select the output phase. The output may differ depending on the output phase in the same
output mode. If the output phase is set to reverse, the output is switched to ON from OFF. If the output phase is normal, the
output is switched to OFF from ON.
The output mode and phase can be set via atLightCurtain. The SFLA (advanced type) supports atLightCurtain.
In case of the output mode of SFL (standard type), AUX 1 (receiver) is OSSD ON/OFF, and AUX 2 (emitter) is Error/Lockout.

The incident light level is less than the sensitivity reduction level.
※

to 35% of the maximum incident light level.
For more information on the incident light level, see "4.3 Alarm for incident light level"
※
The OSSD output is switched to the OFF to prevent damage in the output circuit if the current over rated voltage
flows in the auxiliary output. The state maintains until the auxiliary ouput is switched depending on the sensing
or functional operation.
