Description
Shift
setting
to set the present incident light intensity as a
threshold value.
External
input
setting
External input can be selected from emission
teaching, ECO (Note 1), 2-point teaching or
emission amount test. When setting the incident
light intensity test “
”, output turns ON /
OFF every 100ms when the rate of incident
light intensity and threshold value is less than
half of the set shift amount (for example, when
the rate of incident light intensity and threshold
at external input.
Threshold
value-storing
setting mode
(Note 2)
Threshold value set at the limit teaching,
full-auto teaching or 2-point teaching by
external input is stored. When selecting
Auto in the emission amount setting
mode, the set emission amount level is
also stored.
Threshold
value
follow-up
cycle
setting
(Note 3)
When incident light intensity exceeds threshold
value, this mode can change the threshold value
with each set cycle depending on variations of the
incident light intensity. The follow-up shift amount
is same as the one set in the shift setting mode.
However, the threshold value is not stored.
GETA
function
setting
(Note 4, 5)
Variations can be reduced by correcting the
to a target value. Target value to offset incident
light intensity can be selected from 0 to 2,000
by 100 unit each. For example, if the target
value is set to 2,000 when the incident light
intensity is 1,500, the incident light intensity
becomes 2,000.
ECO
setting
It is possible to light up / turn off the digital
display. When ECO setting mode is ON, the
display turns off in 20 sec. approx. in RUN
mode. To light up the display again, press any
key for 2 sec. or more.
Digital display
inversion
setting
Digital display can be inverted.
Threshold
value
margin
setting
Margin for threshold value to the present
incident light intensity can be checked. When
there is no margin, it is possible to make the
digital display blink.

When conducting limit teaching or 2-point
teaching by external input, in case the rate of reference
incident light intensity and threshold value after teaching
amount, output turns ON / OFF every 100 ms. (Note 6)
Setting
copy
For details, refer to “

Reset
Returns to default settings (factory settings.)
Refer to the copy unit SC-SU1 for details.
Be sure to use the setting copy function between the
identical models (Between models or
models).
This function cannot be used between different
models.
Only one sensor can be connected on slave side with a
master side sensor for the setting copy function.
Threshold value, output operation setting, timer
operation setting, timer setting, light-emitting amount
setting, shift setting, external input setting, threshold
value margin setting, ECO setting, digital display
inversion setting, and threshold value margin setting
can be copied.

PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE
Refer to General precautions, and to the “Operation Guide” on our
Notes: 1) When ECO is selected at the external input setting mode, key
operation on the main body is invalid during external input.
2) This mode is not indicated unless any of “
”, “ ”,
“
” or “ ” is set at the external input setting mode.
3)
If the incident light intensity becomes “300” or less, the follow-up
operation stops. In that condition, threshold value [digital display
is applied, the function cannot be used depending on use conditions.
4) If MODE key is pressed in RUN mode when GETA function is
used, the incident light intensity before setting GETA function is
displayed on the red digital display for 2 sec. approx.
5) When GETA function is used in saturation of incident light intensity
(4,000 or more,) “
” is indicated on the red digital display.
Correction value is up to 4,000.
6)
This mode does not operate unless any of “ ”, “ ” or
“
” is set at the external input setting mode.
