MOUNTING

How to connect

1.

  Fit the rear part of the mounting sec-

tion of the amplifier on a DIN rail.

2.

  Press down the rear part of the 

mounting section of the unit on the 

DIN rail and fit the front part of the 

mounting section to the DIN rail.

How to remove

1.

  Push the controller forward.

2.

  Lift up the front part of the amplifier 

to remove it.

How to connect the fiber cable

Be sure to fit the attachment to the fibers first before inserting the fibers to the 

amplifier. For details, refer to the instruction manual enclosed with the fibers.

1.

  Snap the fiber lock lever down till it 

stops completely.

2.

  Insert the fiber cables slowly into the 

inlets until they stops. (Note)

3.

  Return the fiber lock lever to the 

original position till it stops.

Note:  With the coaxial reflective type fiber, such as , 

FD-G4

 or 

FD-FM2

, insert the single core fiber cable into the 

beam-emitting inlet “P” and the multi-core fiber cable into the beam-receiving inlet.

 

If they are inserted in reverse, the sensing performance will deteriorate.

INSTALL MORE AMPLIFIER OF SERIES CONNECTION TYPE

 

Make sure that the power supply is OFF while adding or removing the series 

connection type.

 

In case 2 or more the series connection types are connected in cascade, 

make sure to mount them on a DIN rail.

 

● In case installing additional amplifier of series connection type, the maximum 

11 the series connection types using sub cables can be added to an amplifier 

using a main connection cable.

 

When connecting 2 or more the series connection types in cascade, use the 

sub cable (optional) for the second series connection type onwards.

For mounting and removing the amplifier, refer to “

MOUNTING

.”

How to cascade

1.

  Mount the amplifiers, one by one, 

on the DIN rail.

2.

  Slide the amplifiers next to each 

other, and connect the quick-

connection cables.

3.

  Mount the end plates 

MS-DIN-E

 

(optional) at both the ends to hold 

the amplifiers between their flat 

sides.

4.

  Tighten the screws to fix the end 

plates.

How to Remove

1.

  Loosen the screws of the end 

plates.

2.

  Remove the end plates.

3.

  Slide the amplifiers and remove 

them one by one.

OPERATION PROCEDURE

The changed settings are not stored if turning the power OFF while 

setting. Therefore, confirm the settings by pressing the SET key before 

turning the power OFF.

 

When turning ON the power, RUN mode is displayed and the digital display 

shows the threshold value (green) and the incident light intensity (red).

• 

Displays threshold value (green) and incident light intensity (red).
