*1 The number of blanked beams is configured with the maximum number of interrupted beams in the
teach-in process (steps (3) to (4)).
Allowable beams are is configured with (Maximum interrupted beams - Minimum interrupted beams)
in the teach-in process.
The blanking monitoring function is configured as lockout.
*2 If the setting value is not an allowable one, the setting is invalid. The following cases are judged as
invalid.
• The number of blanked beams is configured as one (1), or nine (9) or more.
• The number of allowable beams is configured as three (3) or more.
• The number of blanked beams is the same as that of sensor beams.
• Number of allowable beams >= Number of blanked beams
• Teach-in is started when an object does not exist.
• Beam-blocked state is detected discontinuously in the teach-in process.
• The blocking object is removed until the steps (3) to (4) are completed.
(5) Restart
Pressing and holding the reset switch (for 1 s or longer) or restarting the power enables and activates
the setting. Check if the setting has been properly configured.
 Others
• Be sure to perform the teach-in setting of floating blanking while moving the interrupting object.
• If teach-in is performed with all areas receiving light, floating blanking is configured as invalid.
• Teach-in is available under cascade connection as well. In such a case, use the primary sensor's
Push Switch to perform teach-in with the similar steps.
• If teach-in is performed with a cascade connection, teach-in setting is configured for each channel
independently. If sizes of blocking objects are different, settings are configured differently for sensors
as well. For example, if only the Channel 1 sensor is interrupted, the blanking setting is configured for
the Channel 1 only. Other sensors than the Channel 1 work as normal detection zone.
