For 9 m cable, change the suffix 2M to 9M in the 2 m model number (example, DF-G1-NS-9M).
For M12 Euro QD pigtail change the suffix 2M to Q5 in the 2 m model number (example, DF-G1-NS-Q5).
WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this product as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to seri-
ous injury or death. This product does NOT include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to
allow its use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an ener-
gized or de-energized sensor output condition.

• Easy to read dual digital displays show both signal level and threshold simultaneously
• Lever action fiber clamp provides stable, reliable, and trouble-free fiber clamping
• Simple user interface ensures easy sensor set-up and programming via displays and
switches/buttons, or remote input teach wire
• Expert TEACH and SET methods ensure optimal gain and threshold for all applica-
tions, especially low contrast applications
• User has full control over all operating parameters: threshold, Light Operate or Dark
Operate, output timing functions, gain level, and response speed
• Thermally stable electronics minimize warm-up drift and the effect of side-by-side
mounting of multiple fiber amplifiers
• ECO (economy) display mode reduces amplifier power consumption by 25%
• Cross talk avoidance algorithm allows two sensors to operate in close proximity for
many applications
• Response speeds of: 200 µs (High Speed), 500 µs (Standard), 2 ms (Long Range),
and 5 ms (Extra Long Range) allow operator to optimize for fast or long distance ap-
plications
• Sleek 10 mm wide housing mounts to 35 mm DIN standard rail
• Visible red LED sensing beam

Summary of Contents for Banner DF-G1

  • Page 1 For 9 m cable, change the suffix 2M to 9M in the 2 m model number (example, DF-G1-NS-9M). For M12 Euro QD pigtail change the suffix 2M to Q5 in the 2 m model number (example, DF-G1-NS-Q5). WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection Never use this product as a sensing device for personnel protection.
  • Page 2: Top Panel Interface

    The sensor features a single discrete output, either NPN or PNP, by model. The DF-G1 features increased temperature compensation compared with previous fiber optic sensors. An accessory clamp is available to secure a bank of connected sensors together on a DIN rail (see Accessories on page 27).
  • Page 3: Program Mode

    DF-G1 - Expert Dual Display Fiber Amplifier Manual Program Mode Program (PRG) mode allows the following settings to be programmed in the DF-G1 (refer to diagrams on pages 6-7 for programming). TEACH Selection The DF-G1 can be programmed for one of the following TEACH/SET methods: •...
  • Page 4 Gain Selection The DF-G1 can operate in Auto Gain mode or the Gain can be fixed to be in Gain 1…8. In Auto Gain, the DF-G1 optimizes the gain during a TEACH/SET method for the presented condition(s). While viewing the fixed gains in the Gain Selection choice list, the DF-G1 will automatically switch to the selected gain and display the measured signal on the Red display.
