Installation Instructions—42JT VisiSight™ Photoelectric
Transmitted Beam Sensors with IO-Link
Default Settings:
The factory default settings are configured so that no teaching is
required for a vast majority of the applications.
Sensing Range: Maximum Setting
Output Mode: Dark Operate (Output ON when the light
between the emitter and the receiver is blocked)
Output Type: Auto PNP/NPN or IO-Link. In Auto PNP/NPN
mode, the sensor continuously monitors the load connection
and automatically configures the output to PNP or NPN.
Receiver User Interface
Yellow LED
Note: The emitter does not have push button and yellow LED.
LED Status
The table below provides LED status on the receiver in the RUN
mode i.e., during operation. The sensor is always in RUN mode,
except when being taught.
