In case of a cascade connection, a response time is determined by the total number of beams. If the total number of beams of all F3SG-R in a cascade connection is 140 or less, its response time is 12 ms (Code A)/13 ms (Code B).
The Lockout state does not allow the protected machine to operate. The F3SG-R system will remain in the Lockout state until the cause of the error is corrected, regardless of power cycling or an external reset switch press and release.
Response time of “OFF (Not synchronized) → ON” is the response time from when the F3SG-R is in the OFF state and the emitter and receiver are not synchronized to when the F3SG-R is turned to the ON state. This response time is longer since the F3SG-R evaluates if it is blocked or unblocked, after the synchronization is established.
2-3. Scan Code Selection 2-3-1. Overview The F3SG-R has two scan codes (Code A and Code B). These scan codes have different internal processing time. The use of different scan codes allows for placement of systems in close proximity and in line with each other and minimize mutual interference.
2 s max. Subsequently performs periodic test Self test If an error is found in the Self-Test, the F3SG-R enters the Lockout state, keeps the safety output in the OFF state, and indicates the error at the same time. 2-4-1-1. Self-Test details The Self-Test detects such error as described below.
System Operation and Functions 2-4-1-2. Waveform of safety outputs When the safety outputs are in the ON state, they are cyclically turned OFF as shown below to test the output circuit. When this OFF signal is fed back, the output circuit is diagnosed as normal. If the output signal does not include an OFF pulse signal due to short-circuit, etc, the receiver diagnoses a failure in the output circuit or wiring, and it enters the Lockout state.
Toff: Response time ON to OFF 2-5-2. Factory Default Setting The factory default setting is 24 V Active with the black End Cap attached to the F3SG-R. 2-5-3. Setting The user can select the setting from 24 V Active or 0 V Active by switching the End Cap.
System Operation and Functions 2-6. Lockout Reset 2-6-1. Overview When the cause of the Lockout is removed, you can release the Lockout state of the F3SG-R by using either of the following methods. • Cycle the power back ON • Lockout reset input Open or apply 0 V to 1/2 Vs to the EDM line (red) for 1 s or longer, and then apply a voltage of Vs-3 V to Vs again.
OFF to ON, the safety outputs remain in the OFF state. When the N.C. contact is not open within the allowable delay time after the safety outputs switch from OFF to ON, the F3SG-R enters the Lockout state.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury when the F3SG-R fails. 2-8-1. Overview The auxiliary output is used to monitor the status of F3SG-R. This output can be connected to a device such as an indication lamp, programmable controller, etc.
A lamp (F39-LP and F39-BTLP, sold separately) can be connected to a receiver and turned ON based on the operation of F3SG-R. When there are several illumination conditions, the priority of the colors to illuminate or blink is red > orange > green.

If access to the hazardous part by reaching over the detection zone of a vertically mounted F3SG-R cannot be excluded, the height of the detec- tion zone and the safety distance shall be determined in consideration of such a risk. Install the sensors so that part of the person is always present in the detection zone when working in a machine's hazardous zones.
Wiring/Installation 4-1-2. Safety Distance The safety distance is the distance that must be set between the F3SG-R and a machine's hazardous part to stop the hazardous part before a person or object reaches it. The safety distance varies according to the standards of each country and the individual specifications of each machine. Always refer to the relevant standards.
Page 57
If access to the hazardous zone by reaching over the detection zone of vertically mounted F3SG-R cannot be excluded, the height and the safety distance, S, of the F3SG-R shall be determined.

The F3SG-R operates properly without functional earth connection in a general industrial environment. If the F3SG-R fails due to electrical noise, connecting the F3SG-R to the functional earth may work to prevent the noise.

The hazardous part of a machine cannot be reached without passing through the detection zone of the F3SG-R. The system is configured so that the F3SG-R can always detect a worker who is working in the hazardous zone. The reset switch is installed in a location that provides a clear view of the entire hazardous zone and it cannot be activated from within the hazardous zone.
6-1-1-3. Operation Check While the Machine Is Stopped The test rod is not deformed. Use a test rod with an appropriate diameter for inspection. A test rod is not included in the F3SG-R product package. The sensor must detect a test rod wherever it is in the detection zone. In other words, when a test rod is inserted into the detection zone, the Stable-state indicator turns OFF and the ON/OFF indicator turns red.
6-2-1-1. Inspection at Startup and When Changing Operators There is no approach route other than through the detection zone of the F3SG-R. Part of the operator's body always remains in the detection zone of the F3SG-R when working around the machine's hazardous part.
(Use the appropriate test rod.) The hazardous parts remain stopped as long as the test rod is in the detection zone. The hazardous parts stop when the power of the F3SG-R is turned OFF while nothing is in the detection zone.
7-1-1. Lockout State 7-1-1-1. Description If F3SG-R detects any failure, it keeps safety output OFF and transitions to the Lockout state. Under lockout state, the Lockout indicators blink or are ON and other indicators blink based on the failure. Solve the problems based on the table below.

The F3SG-R continues normal operation. The F3SG-R automatically recovers from the warning status when the cause of the error is solved.
If the power supply for the F3SG-R is located near the power supply of the machine guarded and it uses the same ground, it is subject to the influence of common mode noise from the ground.
M12 connector (8-pin), 8 wires F39-JD7RA-L IP67 and IP67G (JIS C 0920 Annex 1)* rated when mated. * F3SG-R meets the degree of protection when it is correctly connected with the F39-JD3RA-D power cable. The degree of protection is not satisfied with the part where cable Receiver wires are uncovered.
