Calibrating Sensor Head - Omron ZW-7000 Series User Manual

• To check if the fiber is broken, verify the following points:
• When you cannot views the right spot even place within measurement range an object which diffuses light, i.e.
paper while connect the fiber cable correctly, the fiber cable may be damaged. In this case, need to repair. Contact
your OMRON representative.
When inspect a object with high reflectivity, visually check may not be allowable. Use and conform a diffused
object.
• For cleaning of fiber connector and fiber cable using ZW-XCL, refer the following processes.

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.
• When extension fiber cable
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.)
