3-3 Optical Axis Alignment When the optical axis alignment indicators [ALIGNMENT] of transmitter, receiver and amplifier do not light even if the sensor head is installed and turned on, align the optical axis of the sensor head. Move the attaching angle of the transmitter and receiver while the target is not present within the measurement range. Then fix the transmitter and receiver near the center of the range where the optical axis alignment indicators [ALIGNMENT] light up.
3-4 Registering the Standard Waveform (Gain adjustment) Be sure to register the standard waveform before measuring. The stable measurement is achieved by registering the standard waveform (Gain adjustment). Register the light-receiving amount as 100 % when a target is not present. "4-3 Setting the Measurement Sensitivity" (page 4-44) Register the standard waveform when the unit is used for the first time, the setting environment is changed, or the measurement sensitivity is changed.
3-5 Initial Reset (Initialize) If the initial reset is performed, all of the setting items except for the calibration setting and standard waveform registration are initialized. (When the sensor head setting is changed, register the standard waveform again. "3-4 Registering the Standard Waveform (Gain adjustment)" (page 3-9) Also, with the same operation, the polarity of judgment output and edge check output, and the analog output setting can be changed.
3-6 Setting the Tolerance Setting Value The tolerance setting value consists of the upper limit value (HIGH side setting value) and the lower limit value (LOW side setting value). By setting these values, judgments are made in three levels: when the judgment value (P.V.) goes beyond the upper limit (HIGH judgment), when the judgment goes beyond the lower limit (LOW judgment) and when the judgment is within the acceptable range (GO judgment).
