With Diffuse (Light-ON) Fiber
1. Teaching button is pressed once.
2. The first detectable object is in the detectable area.
3. Detectable objects continue to pass through the sensing area.

Considering the detectable object positions and the color differences
of detectable objects, sample the light of the first to fifth objects. Then
reset the operating level to the median value between the lowest light
with a detectable object and the light without a detectable object.

If the light value up to the fifth object is at least twice
as large as the operating level, the initial set operat-

Considering a drop in light value due to optical axis divergence or dust
on the lenses, sample the light of the first to fifth objects. Then reset the
operating level to the median value between the lowest light with a de-
tectable object and the light without detectable object.

Note:
1. After no-object teaching, when the E3X-NV
is turned off and on, the operation level will be set to the +10% of the initial light
level (refer to the above (1)) in reflective operation and –10% of the initial light level in through-beam operation and stand by.
2. After performing no-object teaching and changing to RUN mode, until the first detectable object is in the sensing area, the control
output will be prohibited (OFF). The control output will be determined when the first detectable object is detected.
3. The initial operating level compensation function will operate after teaching and/or after the E3X-NV
is turned on.
4. During no-object teaching, after the E3X-NV
is in RUN mode, the E3X-NV
requires approximately 60 ms to determine the oper-
ating level from the time the first detectable object is in the sensing area. After the operating level is determined, the E3X-NV
will
operate with a normal response speed of 500
µ
s.
