Making Sensitivity Settings

Percentage (%) Calibration

Two-point Calibration

This is a calibration method that can set the setting value by percentage with reference to the received light intensity at the time of sensitivity setting.
For example, if the target value is set to 10P, the setting value is determined 10%
lower than the received light intensity when the SET button is pressed.

In this mode, the PV used will be the mean value of two sensing values obtained
with and without a workpiece.

Press the SET button without any workpiece placed in front of the fiber unit.

DSC

When selecting the sensitivity setting method (page 4, No. 2), select the %
calibration, and set the target value of calibration.
Taking the desired light intensity as a reference (normally without a
workpiece), press the SET button.

Place a workpiece placed in front of the fiber unit, and press the SET button.

When the setting is completed,

If the sensitivity difference does not have enough room,  flashes for about two seconds
after the calibration is complete. The set value is stored in memory even in that case.

While the % calibration is in use, other calibrations (sensitivity setting) cannot

be used.
With FS-V31C(P)/32C(P), by periodically performing external calibration from
PLC or other devices, stable detection can be performed even with a small
sensitivity difference.

Output Selection

Maximum Sensitivity Setting

Either light-ON mode or dark-ON mode is selectable.

Set the sensitivity without a workpiece in the case of the reflective type, and with a
workpiece in the case of the through-beam or retro-reflective type.

When the area detection mode is

selected, the selection options are
NO and NC.

Press the SET button for three seconds in the state as shown in the above figure.
(Release the button when SET flashes.)
When setting the sensitivity, set the value slightly higher than the received light intensity.

Dynamic Sensitivity Correction (DSC) Function

DSC automatically corrects the setting value according to the changes in the
received light intensity when there is no workpiece (output OFF).
This function is effective when the light intensity difference is small when judging
whether or not there is a workpiece.
At Detection mode selection (page 4, No.4), select Dynamic sensitivity correction
mode beforehand.*
How to set the sensitivity is the same as in the normal mode.

Full Auto Calibration

In this mode, the PV will be set to the mean value of the maximum and minimum incident
values obtained within a certain period. Use this mode to detect moving workpieces.

(2)
Press (2) within five seconds
after pressing (1).

Press the set button for a minimum of three seconds while the target
workpiece is passing the sensing area of the fiber unit.
While the SET button is pressed, the sensitivity of the sensor will be set
according to the incident values.

The DSC indicator illuminates when the DSC function is set.

Positioning Calibration

When Light ON is selected, the upper limit of the correctable range is twice as
much as the initial setting value.
The value is stored in memory even after the power is turned off.
The DSC indicator flashes when the light intensity during output OFF greatly fluctuates
or the L/D ON selection is inappropriate. In such a case, check the setting again.

Press the SET button without any workpiece placed in front of the fiber unit.

Edge Detection Mode

This mode detects the change in the received light intensity during a given period
of time.

DSC

Detects the increase (rising edge) of the

received light intensity

Falling edge detection

Detects the decrease (falling edge) of the

received light intensity

Place a workpiece on the position where you want to perform positioning.

Filter Setting

Rising edge detection

Basically, leave this setting as its initial value. If the passage interval of workpieces

Hints On Correct Use

Do not wire the amplifier line along with power lines or high-tension lines, otherwise the
sensor may malfunction or receive damage due to noise.
When using a commercially available switching regulator, ground the frame
ground terminal and ground terminal.
Do not use the FS series outdoors, or in a place where extraneous light can
enter the light receiving surface directly.
Due to the individual dispersion of characteristics and the difference in fiber
unit model, the maximum sensing distance or displayed value of all the units
are not the same.
If the sensor is used in S-APC mode for a long time, the LED indicators will be
imposed with a heavy load. In that case, the sensor will be automatically set to
ACC mode where the current consumption of the sensor for light emission will
be constant, and END APC will be displayed. The sensor can be continuously
used in this case. Replace the sensor, however, if highly precise detection is
required.

When several units are connected, the operating ambient temperature varies depending on the
number of units to be connected.When connecting several units, be sure to mount the units on
the DIN rail (mounted on a metal plate), and keep the output current within 20mA.
When 1 to 2 units are connected
: -10 to +55 C,
When 3 to 10 units are connected : -10 to +50 C,
When 11 to 16 units are connected : -10 to 45 C
When double is set, the response time is twice as long as the normal response time.
When using the HIGH SPEED mode, the power consumption increases by 160 mW (7 mA).
