3.4 Operation Mode
◎
Standard model (RX)
0
Stop Mode
There will not be any scan, the orange light is displayed, and the output is fixed at
OFF state.
1
ON/OFF Mode
Check if there is any object shading in the detection area and excuse self-
diagnosis.
When the product is in normal use, the output is OFF(Red Light) after shading any
light beam, and the output is ON(Green Light) when it is non-shading. In the OFF
state, sensor do FB diagnosis, voltage diagnosis and light beam diagnosis
cyclically. Output to ON state when all the diagnosis pass. When FB, internal
voltage diagnosis be judged into fail, output would stand in OFF state and change
into Stop Mode(Orange Light)

Measurement
mode
(default)
When full beams are non-shading, output action ON (green light flashing once per
second), any beam is shading or abnormal happened, output OFF (red light
flashing once per second). Simultaneously detect Voltage, FB and light beam
diagnosis in the same of scan cycle.
3
FB diagnosis
mode
Detects whether or not each beams feedback signal is normal. When diagnosis is
normal, green light will flash three times every two seconds. When diagnosis is
abnormal, red light will flash three times every two seconds, and output will be fixed
as OFF.
4
Voltage
diagnosis
mode
Detects whether or not the internal/external voltage signal is normal. When
diagnosis is normal, green light will flash four times every two seconds. When
diagnosis is abnormal, red light will flash four times every two seconds, and output
will be fixed as OFF.
