Automatic optimal LED selection function
The 3 colors of the R•G•B LEDs are
optimally selected according to the color
combination. With the LX-100’s Mark mode,
the built-in “Automatic optimal LED selection
function” automatically selects the LED for
the largest contrast (S / N ratio) between the
mark and base (non-mark area) to ensure
optimal sensing. For more stable detection,
the sensor makes selection according to the
contrast and not according to the reected
light variation between the mark and base
(non-mark area).
The example on the right deals with reected light
on packing lm.
Great gures are indicated for the blue LED’s light
amount ratio and, for even more stable sensing,
the blue LED effectuates this mark sensing.

Automatic selection of the optimal LED
Two detection modes can be selected from to suit the application
Mark mode
Ultra high-speed response
This sensing mode automatically selects
a single color from the 3 R•G•B LEDs to
achieve an ultra quick 45 µs response
time. The automatic optimal LED
selection function automatically selects
the LED that is most suitable for the
sensing. This function is perfect for ultra
quick sensing.
The color around letters is
detected as a mark.
Predetermined colors are
detected as marks.
* You can select the mark mode or color mode through key operation.
Color mode
High precision discrimination
All 3 R•G•B LEDs light up and high
precision mark color discrimination
occurs using the R•G•B reective light
ratio. This function enables effective
detection of lms with patterns around
the area of the mark.
High precision mark color discrimination
The color mode on the LX-100 series utilizes all 3 R•G•B LEDs to determine the R•G•B ratio of the mark color.
The built-in 12-bit A/D converter enables high precision 1/4,000-resolution judgments. The gure below is a graphic
description of this process.
Even similar colors are accurately determined using the R•G•B ratio.

Its digital display makes settings easy! Numerical control of the settings is possible
The 4-digit digital display enables easy verication of received light from marks and base (non-mark area). Also, the
threshold value can be controlled numerically enabling setting indication easily. Displaying the direct code enables
settings verication. This function is handy for remote maintenance.

Even beginners can quickly master MODE NAVI operation
The sensor’s basic operations are represented by 6 indicators (MODE NAVI). The user can check what mode the
sensor is presently in with a quick glance making operation simple.
This is the sensing mode. The digital display
shows the light-receiving amount (mark mode)
and the color consistency (color mode).
This mode enables a mark
mode / color mode selection.

Direct codes enable settings verication at a glance
The settings for the LX-100 series sensors are displayed using a 4-digit direct code. Direct codes enable easy setting
verication and maintenance by phone.
What is the
direct code?
The direct code is 0004. At present,
the sensor is operating with a mark
at 2300 and base at 860.

the MODE key and the direct code will

( )
Direct code table (D-Code)
The sensor setting modes can be veried by a 4-digit
code (D-Code). The table below shows a list of all
available codes.
Notes: 1) In Mark mode, L-ON / D-ON is automatically set in the sensor. For example, with 2-level teaching, press the ON key at the targeted mark and
press the OFF key at the base (non-mark area). When doing so, the operator does not have to consider L-ON / D-ON.
2) Sensing accuracy can be set to either FINE (standard) or COARSE.
3) The percent display is only enabled in mark mode.
4) ECO mode is a function that reduces power consumption by turning off the digital display in the event that no button operations are made for
a predetermined time (approx. 10 sec. or more) in RUN mode. Press any button to turn the digital display on again.
5)
The turn mode is a function that reverses the digital display making it easily to be viewed in the event that the sensor installation renders the display up-side-down.
* Default setting: D-code = “ ”.
Super simple teaching
Press the ON button at the targeted mark.
Here is an example of the most basic setting method
“2-level teaching”.
External teaching possible
Teaching is possible through external input using an
operation panel or touch panel even on hard-to-reach
color mark sensors located inside an equipment. Also,
models can be interchanged easily.
Mode selection
Press MODE key and select TEACH mode.
Sensing
Teaching complete. The optimal LED is
automatically selected and the sensor
automatically returns to RUN mode.

Other teaching methods
• Full-auto teaching: In Mark mode, teaching is effective
without stopping the sensing object.
• 1-level teaching: In Color mode, the color detected is aligned
by the spot and teaching is effective.
Compact design for signicant space savings
High precision sensing and multiple functions are all
packed in a compact W57 × D24 × H38 mm W2.244
× D0.945 × H1.496 in body.
Cable and plug-in connector
types are available
depending on the
equipment used.
These sensors can
be easily introduced
to existing facilities.
Key lock function
The key lock function enables input operation control
that prevents mistaken changes in the sensor settings.
Other detailed settings include “RUN adjust”, allowing
threshold value adjustment only, and “RUN teaching”,
allowing teaching operation only.
If the sensor is set to “RUN adjust” or “RUN teaching”,
adjustment and teaching are possible having the sensor
remained in RUN mode.

PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE Refer to General precautions.
Mounting
•Care must be taken regarding the sensor mounting
direction with respect to the object’s direction of movement.
•The tightening torque should be 0.8 N·m or less.
Do not make the
sensor detect an object
in this direction
because it may cause
unstable operation.
Mark and base Mark and base
10 to 15°
Sensing glossy object
•Objects with a glossy surface have a large amount of
specularreectionparticlesthatmaydestabilizesensing.
In such a case, by slightly tilting the sensor’s beam axis,
thisspecularreectioncanbereducedrenderingsensing
more stable.
•If the surface of the sensing object
has a shine, mount the sensor
inclining approx. 10 to 15 degrees
against the sensing object.
Others
Wiring
•Do not use during the initial transient time (0.5 sec.) after
the power supply is switched on.
•Take care that the sensor is not directly exposed to
uorescentlightfromarapid-starterlamporahigh
frequency light device or sunlight etc., as it may affect the
sensing performance.
•Do not touch the lens of the sensor by hand directly. If
the lens becomes dirty, wipe it off with a soft cloth gently.
•When the inside lens is steamed up, unscrew the lens to
get rid of the condensation.
•These sensors are only for indoor use.
•Do not use this sensor in places having excessive vapor,
dust, etc., or where it may come in direct contact with
water, or corrosive gas.
•Take care that the product does not come in contact with
water, oil, grease, or organic solvents, such as, thinner,
etc.
•Make sure that stress by forcible bend or pulling with
76 N, or more, force is not applied to the sensor cable
joint.
•This sensor cannot be used in an environment containing
inammableorexplosivegases.
•Never disassemble or modify the sensor.
•Make sure to carry out wiring in the power supply off
condition.
•Take care that wrong wiring will damage the sensor.
•Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
•Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is
applied, or if an AC power supply is directly connected,
the sensor may get burnt or damaged.
•In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator,
inverter motor, etc.) is used in the vicinity of this
product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the
equipment to an actual ground.
•If power is supplied from a commercial switching
regulator, ensure that the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of
the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
•Do not use during the initial transient time (0.5 sec.) after
the power supply is switched on.
•Take care that short-circuit of the load or wrong wiring
may burn or damage the sensor.
•Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or
power lines or put them in the same raceway. This can
cause malfunction due to induction.
•Extension up to total 100 m is possible with 0.3 mm2, or
more, cable. However, in order to reduce noise, make the
wiring as short as possible.
•Never use this product as a sensing device
for personnel protection.
•In case of using sensing devices for
personnel protection, use products which
meet laws and standards, such as OSHA,
ANSI or IEC etc., for personnel protection
applicable in each region or country.
