Quick Start
The Digital Fiber Optic Sensor
a single push of a button; there is no guess work on the part of the operator. The sensor default settings* (Channel 1, Light State) will work
for most applications.
Follow the three step procedure below:
1.
Establish one of the following conditions:
Beam Make/Proximity - Reflect light off object.
Beam Break - Remove object from light beam path.

    Programming Using AUTOSET Switch between Screens 1 and 2 by pressing straight down on the The DFS threshold is set automatically by 3-way toggle switch. pressing the AUTOSET button. There are six different ways the sensor determines the threshold. The user first must determine which type of setup mode is appropriate for the When using DUAL CHANNEL: application.
  • Page 3 Detect Mode SENSOR Sensor output activates or deactivated when received light intensity is over the threshold. Not available when LIGHT ON input function is set to Remote Dark On. Light On (LO): Output activates when received light intensity is over the Detect Mode: OBJECTS threshold.
