Page 7: Sensor Installation
Sensor Installation The BFS 30M Color Sensor is provided with 2 jam nuts allowing it to be easily mounted thru a 30mm clearance hole. The BFS 30M Color Sensor bracket provides a 30mm clearance hole for the sensor and a pivot and slot for a #8 screw for mounting the bracket. -

Page 9: Bfs 30M Color Sensor Application Program
Sensor settings are parameters that apply to operation of the sensor. When a sensor is connected to the PC the application program reads these parameters and updates the display. When changes are made to these settings, the new settings must be downloaded to the sensor by selecting the Send BFS 30M Color Sensor Settings button. -
Page 10: Minimum Output Duration (Ms)
Illumination (%) Adjustment range = 0 – 100% The BFS 30M Color Sensor allows the user to optimize the sensitivity of the sensor by adjusting the illumination level to prevent the sensor from saturating. The illumination setting must be adjusted prior to teaching the color recognition channels. -
Page 11: Serial No
The BFS 30M Color Sensor allows users to select color and color & luminosity modes on an individual channel basis. Color and luminosity provides the highest precision while Color only is better suited in applications where target flutter is present. -
Page 12: Tolerance (%)
Send All BFS 30M Color Sensor Channels The Send All BFS 30M Color Sensor Channels button sends all the settings and parameters for all channels to the sensor. This function is useful when recalling a saved file to re-programming the sensor. -

4. Set the illumination level to 100%. 5. Press the Send BFS 30M Color Sensor Settings button to send the settings to the sensor. 6. To determine which sample provides the highest signal level, place the sample that appears to be the lightest in the sensor field of view. -
Page 14: Input/Output Signal Descriptions
In cases where the colors are very similar, it may be necessary to use lower tolerance settings. 14. Select the Match output to be high or low. 15. Place the target in the sensor field of view and press the Teach BFS 30M Color Sensor Channel button. -
Page 15: Application Notes
Generally, at low signal levels, relaxing the tolerance results in more reliable operation. Equipment Maintenance Instructions The BFS 30M Color Sensor does not contain any user serviceable components. A suitable glass cleaner may be used to clean the window. BFS 30M Color Sensor Spot Size Chart Error! Objects cannot be created from editing field codes. -
