Mounting the End Plate (PFP-M)
Use an End Plate if the Amplifier Unit might move due to vibration.
Fiber Unit Connection
The E3X Amplifier Unit has a lock lever for easy connection of the
Fiber Unit. Connect or disconnect the fiber units using the following
procedures:
1. Connecting Fiber Units
Open the protective cover, insert the fiber units according to the fiber unit
insertion marks on the side of the Amplifier Unit, and lower the lock lever.
Note:
If one of the fibers from the Fiber Unit is labeled as the Emitter
fiber, such as with a Coaxial Sensor, insert that fiber into the
Emitter section. Refer to
Dimensions for the Fiber Unit
to see if
there is an Emitter fiber label.
Fiber Units with E39-F9 Attachment
Fiber Units That Cannot Be Free-Cut (with Sleeves)
2. Disconnecting Fiber Units
Remove the protective cover and raise the lock lever to pull out the
fiber units.
Adjusting
Mutual Interference Protection Function
The values that appear on the digital display may fluctuate somewhat
due to light from other sensors. If this occurs, you can stabilize
detection by setting a threshold that is close to half way between the
incident levels with and without a sensing object.
Output Short-circuits Protection
OVER/CUR will flash on the display if the output short-circuit
protection function operates due to a load short-circuit in a control
output. If this occurs, check the load connections.
EEPROM Writing Error
If the data is not written to the EEPROM correctly due to a power
failure or static-electric noise, initialize the settings with the keys on
the Amplifier Unit. ERR/EEP will flash on the display when a writing
error has occurred.
Optical Communications
Several Amplifier Units can be slid together and used in groups. Do
not, however, slide the Amplifier Units or attempt to remove any of the
Amplifier Units during operation.
Others
Protective Cover
Always keep the protective cover in place when using the Amplifier
Unit.
Mobile Console
The E3X-MC11-SV2 Mobile Console does not currently support the
new Tough Mode and ON-delay + OFF-delay timer. You also cannot
use the E3X-MC-S.
Sensor Communications Unit
Using CompoNet
Use the E3X-CRT Sensor Communications Unit.
To connect this Sensor Communications Unit, you must use the E3X-
DA0-S Amplifier Unit.
Using EtherCAT
Use the E3X-ECT Sensor Communications Unit.
To connect this Sensor Communications Unit, you must use the E3X-
DA0-S Amplifier Unit.
Using DeviceNet
Use the E3X-DRT21-S Version 3 or later Sensor Communications
Unit.
To connect this Sensor Communications Unit, you must use the E3X-
DA7-S or E3X-DA9-S Amplifier Unit.
Note:
Do not pull on the fiber unit, apply pressure on it, or otherwise
subject it to excessive force when it is attached to the
Amplifier Unit.
