The following symbols are used: WARNING ... indicates a possibly dangerous situation which can cause death or serious injury if not avoided. CAUTION ...
Mounting and operating instructions Correct use The FT 50 C...S1 is a colour sensor for the detection of objects in varying colours in proximity mode (for opaque objects) and reflector mode (for transparent objects). WARNING The FT 50 C must never be used to protect the safety of individuals or technical applications. Performance The colour sensors of the FT 50 C...S1 series are ideal for on-line colour detection in industrial procedures and processes.
Mounting and operating instructions Mounting Dimensional drawing Illustr. 2 15300065 Illustr. 1 15300350 Mounting the sensor Screw sensor to suitable holder e.g. type MS F 50 or MSP F 50* (not included in delivery) using the fixing holes. Fit the sensor in a place where the distance to the object is as constant as possible (little variation in scanning distance).
Mounting and operating instructions Electrical installation Rotate the connector plug for the connection cable, so that the cable can be connected easily, without kinks. Fit socket of the connector cable and screw tight (authorised approx. tightening torque 0.5 to 1 Nm). Secure connection cable (for example with cable retainer).
Mounting and operating instructions Use and configuration The sensor has different operating modes and functions. It has a serial RS 485 interface for the transfer of colour values and configuration of sensor functions. Sensor configuration can be carried out via the control panel using the keys.

Mounting and operating instructions Procedure: Step Menu item Activity Picture follows Remark Operating Position object Observe operating parameters such as scanning distance, mode (no direction of movement, inclination etc. (see chapter menu item) “Mounting“). Press LED „C“ (yellow) flashes, when time lock is open and configuration mode is activated.
Mounting and operating instructions Teach-in colours via PIN 6: The teach-in procedure can also be initiated by means of the input cable IN ET (PIN 6). For this purpose, the input cable must be set for >3s to High (time lock).The colour is taught by the variation of the edge (from High to Low). After the teach-in process, the colour is stored with the last manual tolerance settings.

Mounting and operating instructions Step Menu item Activity Picture follows Remark Press Continue to „Exit menu” Exit menu Press The settings are stored and configuration mode is exited. Communication via the serial interface All FT50C ...S1 sensors are equipped with a bus-compatible, serial interface (RS485) for bi-directional transmission of colour values as well as the setting of sensor functions.
Mounting and operating instructions Description of protocol The data transfer protocol is bus-compatible. Data flow is controlled by the master (PC, SPC) via the software protocol. The sensor only sends data on request and has an address within the range 1 to 127 (factory setting = 1). A data transfer cycle consists of a command telegram addressed to the sensor by the master and the sensor’s reply telegram.
