3) When the power supply is switched on, the light emission timing is automatically set for
interference prevention.
4) The cable for amplifier connection is not supplied as an accessory. Make sure to use the

CN-74-C5 (cable length 5m)

2 MOUNTING
How to mount the amplifier
Fit the rear part of the mounting section of the amplifier
on a 35mm width DIN rail.
Press down the rear part of the mounting section of the
unit on the 35mm width DIN rail and fit the front part of
the mounting section to the DIN rail.
How to remove the amplifier
Push the amplifier forward.
Lift up the front part of the amplifier to remove it.
Note: Take care that if the front part is lifted without pushing the
amplifier forward, the hook on the rear portion of the mounting section is likely to break.
How to connect the fiber cables
Be sure to fit the attachment to the fibers first before inserting the fibers to the
amplifier. For details, refer to the instruction manual enclosed with the fibers.
Snap the fiber lock lever down.
Insert the fiber cables slowly into the inlets until they stop. (Note 1)
Return the fiber lock lever to the original position, till it stops.
Notes: 1) In case the fiber cables are not inserted to a position where they
stop, the sensing range reduces. In case of a flexible fiber, take
care that it may bend inside the amplifier, during insertion.
2) With the coaxial reflective type fiber, such as, FD-G4 or FD-FM2,
insert the single-core fiber cable into the beam-emitting inlet and
the multi-core fiber cable into the beam-receiving inlet. If they are
inserted in reverse, the sensing accuracy will deteriorate.

3 CAUTIONS
This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
When the emission halt of the emitting power switching function is set from 'OFF' to 'ON', the
output may be unstable. Do not use the output control for 0.5 sec. after starting emission.
Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring.
Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is applied, or if an AC power
supply is directly connected, the sensor may get burnt or damaged.
In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.) is used in the vicinity
of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the equipment to an actual ground.
If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame
ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
Do not use during the initial transient time (0.5 sec.) after the power supply is switched on.
Take care that short-circuit of the load or wrong wiring may burn or damage the sensor.
Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines or put them in
the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction.
Make sure to use the optional quick-connection cable for the connection of the amplifier.
Extension up to total 100m (if 5 to 8 units are connected in cascade: 50m, if 9 to 16 units are connected
in cascade: 20m) is possible with 0.3mm
wiring as short as possible. Furthermore, take care that cable extension increases the residual voltage.
This sensor is suitable for indoor use only.
Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
Take care that the product does not come in contact with water, oil, grease, organ-
ic solvents, such as, thinner, etc., strong acid or alkaline.
This sensor cannot be used in an environment containing inflammable or explosive gases.
Never disassemble or modify the sensor.
4 CASCADING
Make sure that the power supply is off while adding or removing the amplifiers.
Make sure to check the allowable ambient temperature, as it depends on the
number of amplifiers connected in cascade.
In case two, or more, amplifiers are connected in cascade, make sure to mount them on a DIN rail.
When the amplifiers move on the DIN rail depending on the attaching condition or
the amplifiers are mounted close to each other in cascade, fit them between the
optional end plates (MS-DIN-E) mounted at the two ends.
When connecting amplifiers not close to each other in parallel, be sure to mount the option-
al end plate (MS-DIN-E) at both sides of each amplifier or affix the communication window
seal of the accessory amplifier protection seal (FX-MB1) to the communication window.
Up to maximum 15 amplifiers can be added (total 16 amplifiers connected in cascade.)
When connecting more than two amplifiers in cascade, use the sub cable (CN-72-C )
as the quick-connection cable for the second amplifier onwards.
The settings other than the interference prevention function cannot be transmitted
between this product and other digital fiber amplifiers. Therefore, in case both mod-
els of amplifiers are mounted in cascade, be sure to mount identical models togeth-
er. However, the interference prevention function is not incorporated in the
FX-301(P)-HS and FX-303(P). Take care when the sensors are mounted in cascade.
The communication function of this product and that of the FX-301(P)-F is differ-
ent. If these models are mounted in cascade, affix the accessory amplifier protec-
tion seal (FX-MB1) to the communication windows of the amplifiers.
For mounting and removing the amplifier, refer to '
Cascading method
Mount the amplifiers, one by one,
on the 35mm width DIN rail.
Slide the amplifiers next to each
other, and connect the quick-con-
nection cables.
Mount the optional end plates
(MS-DIN-E) at both the ends to hold
the amplifiers between their flat sides.
Tighten the screws to fix the end
plates.
Dismantling
Loosen the screws of the end plates.
Remove the end plates.
Slide the amplifiers and remove
them one by one.
