Setting, Monitoring, and Operating Sensors from the
DeviceNet Configurator
2-7-1
Overview
The DeviceNet Configurator (Ver. 2.10 or higher) can be used to edit and
monitor device parameters to support the following setting, monitoring, and
operating functions.
Setting and Downloading
from the Communication
Unit
• Setting the number of Sensors connected.
• Setting the number of Units monitoring incident light levels.
The above settings, however, are enabled only when pin 3 of the Communica-
tion Unit DIP switch is ON.
Setting and Downloading
Sensor Settings
• Threshold settings
• Basic settings
• Timer setting
• Hysteresis width
• Custom Flags
• Special Flags (E3X-DA6TW and E3X-DA8TW)
Monitoring the
Communication Unit
• Sensor ON/OFF data
• The following status:
• Normal communications with E3X
• Communications errors with E3X
• Number of Sensors that can communicate
• Switching method for setting number of Sensors connected
• Number of Sensors connected
Sensor Operations
• Adjusting the maximum sensitive
• Teaching one point
• Teaching the first point for two-point teaching
• Teaching the second point for two-point teaching
• Teaching the first position for two-position teaching
• Teaching the second position for two-position teaching
• Starting a zero reset
• Disable zero reset
• Start flashing
• Stop flashing
• Initializing Sensor settings
• Reset
Note If the number of Sensors connected to the Communication Unit does not
match the number of Sensors that are enabled to communicate, the response
time is substantially delayed when the Configurator is put online and informa-
tion uploaded from the Communication Unit.
