Output and Stability Indicators
Two LEDs (green and orange) indicate a variety of conditions
to facilitate set-up and troubleshooting. The function of each is
described in the table below. Relevant output and stability
data are also shown.

Operation Selector Switch
When the selector switch is in the RUN position (see following
example), the sensor will function normally, and all settings
are locked from adjustment. The SET position unlocks the
sensor’s settings, allowing the user to either adjust the sensor
manually, or use the self-teach functionality. When
adjustments are complete, return the switch to the RUN
position (settings become locked). If a manual sensitivity
adjustment is required a user can unlock this setting by
(quickly) switching from RUN to SET to RUN. The sensor will
display a flashing “S” on the LCD display, and the user can
now adjust the sensitivity setting. The sensor will automatically
return to the locked condition 10 seconds after sensitivity
adjustment is complete.
Locking
Two Adjustment Buttons
The red button is used to teach the sensor, change the
frequency and to increase the sensitivity.
The black button is used to change the operating mode,
indication mode and to decrease sensitivity.
Both buttons are inactive in the RUN mode.
Mounting the Sensor
How to Attach Sensor to DIN Rail
Attach front hook of the photoelectric
sensor onto rail (or Mounting bracket)
and press rear end of sensor down
until unit snaps into place.
How to Detach Sensor from DIN Rail
Pushing the sensor unit forward,
pull up on the front of the sensor
until the front hook is detached.
Remove sensor.
Side Mounting Sensor with Bracket
Fasten mounting bracket assembly
using M3 screws. Tightening torque is
0.8Nm max. Attach front hook of the
photoelectric sensor onto mounting
bracket and press rear end of sensor
down until unit snaps into place.
