Calibrating Sensor Head - Omron ZW-8000 Series User Manual

Calibrating Sensor Head

Calibrate the Sensor Head by obtaining the dark data in the no-incoming light status.
• When removing and inserting a fiber cable from/to the Sensor Controller (Including the initial connection).
• When extending a fiber cable.
• When "Dark" is shown in the main display even though a measurement object exists in the measurement
range.
The Sensor Head should be calibrated without any object within 20mm of the measurement range or with the
tip of the Sensor Head shielded from light with an object with diffuse reflection.
Correct calibration is not possible with a transparent object, semi-transparent object, or mirror.
• Without any object
