Notes

1.  The maximum incident light intensity displayed depends on the selected response 

time.

 

Response time

Incident light intensity

STD, H-SP, FAST

Max. 4,000

LONG

Max. 8,000

U-LG, HYPR

Max. 9,999

2.  When the timer is used, set the timer time.

Approx. 0.1 – 999.9ms

1 – 9999

3.  When setting the shift amount using the digit display, the setting range differs 

depending on the response time, as shown in the table below

o clear the value, turn off the time period holding function. Turning off the power 

switch also clears the value.

5.  If you have selected limit teaching for the changed incident light intensity (Algo-

rithm setting = 

), note that the shift direction of the threshold differs depending 

on the combination of the sensing output status and the sensing output operation.

Be able to prevent from wrong operation of teaching.

The lock is deactivated, teaching can be 

performed.
The lock is activated, teaching is not possible.

Setting items 

in the digital 

display

Select what should be displayed in red on the digital 

display. Choose between the incident light intensity 

displayed as a percentage or the peak/bottom value.

Peak/bottom

setting

Peak/bottom values are refreshed regularly.
Peak/bottom values are held.

When you set this parameter to ON, the digital dis-

play will be rotated by 180°.

ECO setting

The power consumption can be lowered.

Power consumption is normal.
If no key is pressed for 20s in RUN mode, the 

digital display turns OFF.
If no key is pressed for 20s in RUN mode or 

the key lock function has been activated, the 

digital display and all indicators turn OFF.

adjustment 

setting

Set the incident light intensity to the target value. When 

you set the display adjustment while the incident light 

intensity does not have enough margin, the display 

shows a blinking 

.

Display adjustment OFF
Set the display to 0. This redefines the initially 

displayed value as zero. 

Reset setting

If you select the setting 

, the amplifier returns to the 

factory settings.

Interference 

prevention 

setting

The interference prevention function is disabled.

Use up to 4 different emitting frequencies. A 

maximum of 4 sensor heads can be cascaded 

per frequency setting.
Set this to minimize the effect of ambient 

environment.

When this setting is set, mutual interference 

prevention function is disabled.

The response time is as follows when

Threshold 

value follow-

up cycle

The incident light intensity can be monitored for the 

cycle (1 to 9,999s) specified, for example when varia-

tions in incident light intensity are expected. When the 

threshold value follow-up cycle is set, the threshold 

value is adjusted according to the shift based on the 

incident light intensity detected. However, the threshold 

value is not stored

Sensing 

output 

setting

Select whether the threshold value should be followed 

when the output is OFF or when the output is ON.

Storage 

cycle set-

ting

Select the cycle for storing threshold values in the non-

volatile memory. The valid range is 1 to 250 times

Algorithm 

setting

When limit teaching is used, the threshold value 

is modified by the shift amount. The direction 

of the threshold shift differs depending on the 

combination of the sensing output status and 

the sensing output operation, see note

(Recommended when using thru-beam-type 

fiber or specular reflective-type fiber)
When auto teaching is used, the threshold value 

is followed up on the basis of each cycle. (Rec-

ommended when using reflective-type fiber)

Notes

The direction of the threshold shift differs depending on the combination of 

the sensing output status and the sensing output operation.

Error codes and troubleshooting

The following error codes may appear in the digital display

Error 

code

Description

Remedy

The non-volatile memory is broken or 

reached the end of its working life.

Please contact our office.

Error writing on the non-volatile memory

Load of the sensing output is short-cir-

cuited causing an over-current to flow.

Check that all amplifiers are 

firmly attached and that there 

is no gap between amplifiers.
