Safety Precautions
Refer to Warranty and Limitations of Liability.
This product is not designed or rated for ensuring
safety of persons either directly or indirectly.
Do not use it for such purposes.
Make sure that this product is used within the rated ambient
environment conditions.
● Wiring
•Connection is made using a connector. Do not solder to the pins
(leads).
•When extending the cable, use an extension cable with conductors
having a total cross-section area of 0.3 mm2. The total cable length
must be less than 10 m.
● Axis Adjustment
(1)Tentatively mount the emitter and receiver so that the center of
each lens is in a single line.
(2)Turn ON the emitter and receiver after making sure that they have
been wired correctly. When power is turned ON, the light indicator
on the receiver will light. Make sure that the light indicator is OFF
when an object intercepts the optical axis and that the light
indicator lights again when the object is removed.
(3)Fix the position of the receiver (or emitter)
securely, move the emitter (or receiver)
horizontally and vertically to check the range in
which the operation indicator is lit. Then locate
the emitter (or receiver) in the center of the
range and fix the position securely.
