Safety Precautions Always observe This manual explains important rules that must be observed to prevent personal injury and property damage. ■ The hazards that may occur if the product is used incorrectly are described and classified by level of harm. WARNING Risk of death or serious injury.
Page 6
Precaution ● This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only. ● The narrow beam type EX-1□S□ emits a narrow light beam, so it is difficult to align the beam. Use the instrument with the emitter and the receiver facing each other in a straight line. Note that if screws or other parts become loose due to vibration, for example, the beam axis may drift.

Stability Indicator ● The stability indicator (green) lights up when the incident light intensity has sufficient margin with respect to the operation level. Incident light intensity level is such that the stability indicator light up, stable sensing can be done without the light received operation and the light interrupted operation being af- fected by a change in ambient temperature or supply voltage.
