1-1 FQ2-S4-series Vision Sensors

The FQ2-S4 Series features Vision Sensors with integrated cameras and controllers. They can be used to
easily achieve simple inspections and measurements and to easily read and verify IDs.
You can use parallel controls, no-protocol communications on Ethernet, PLC Link communications on Ethernet,
and EtherNet/IP communications on Ethernet as standard features. You can also use a Data Unit to enable
control with full-scale parallel communications or RS-232C communications.
To set up and monitor the Vision Sensor, you can use either the Touch Finder or the PC Tool running on a
computer. For actual operation, you can use the Vision Sensor on a stand-alone basis.

Sensor with C-mount
After the Sensor has been set up, it can be
operated alone to perform measurements
without the Touch Finder or PC Tool.
FQ2-S4-series Vision Sensors are available in models with 350,000, 760,000, and 1,300,000 pixels. There are
also Sensors with C-mounts that allow you to change the lens, and Sensors with Built-in Lighting. The
differences are given in the following table.
