7.1 Alignment
Align the sensor with a suitable reflector. Select the position so that the red emitted
light beam hits the center of the reflector. The sensor must have a clear view of the
reflector, with no object in the path of the beam [see
figure 1 ]. You must ensure that the
optical openings of the sensor and reflector are completely clear.
Figure 1: Alignment
7.2 Sensing range
Adjust the distance between the photoelectric sensor and the reflector according to the
relevant diagram [see
figure 2 ] (x = sensing range, y = operating reserve).
After alignment, place a non-transparent object into the path of the beam. Check the
function as described in
table 2 . If the switching output fails to behave as described in
table 2 , check the application conditions.
