Teaching

•The threshold values can be set by 2-level teaching, limit teaching or full- auto teaching, when the MODE indicator / TEACH (yellow) lights up.

In case of 2-level teaching

•This is the method of setting the threshold value by teaching two levels, corresponding to the object present and object absent conditions. Normally, setting is done by this method.

Note: Do not move or bend the fiber cable after the sensitivity setting. Detection may become unstable.

In case of full auto-teaching FX-301B(P)/G(P)/H(P) only

•Full auto-teaching is used when it is desired to set the threshold value without stopping the assembly line, with the object in the moving condition.

In case of limit teaching

•This is the method of setting the threshold value by teaching only the object absent condition (stable incident light condition). This is used for detection in the presence of a background body or for detection of small objects.

(twice) the display from right to left, and the threshold

 

level is shifted to a value approx. 15 %

Notes: 1) The approx. 15% amount of shift is the initial value. The amount of shift can be changed in the PRO mode from approx. 5 to 80 % (5 % step). Refer to the ‘Fiber Sensor Guide Book’ or ‘SUNX fiber sensor home page’ (http://www.fiber-sensor.com) for more details pertaining to setting instructions.

2)Do not move or bend the fiber cable after the sensitivity setting. Detection may become unstable.

Notes: 1) The threshold value’s shift amount can be selected in PRO mode. Refer to the ‘SUNX fiber sensor home page’ (http://www.fiber- sensor.com) for more details pertaining to setting instructions. (Increments of 5 % between –45 and 45 % for setting possible. 0 % default.)

2)Do not move or bend the fiber cable after the sensitivity setting. Detection may become unstable.
