Description

Response time change mode

The response time can be set.

Light-emitting amount

selection mode (Note 1)

The light-emitting amount can be

switched among four levels.

Timer setting mode

Timer settings can be selected; Without timer /

OFF-delay timer / ON-delay timer / ONE SHOT

timer. Also the timer period can be set.

Digital display inversion mode

The display on the digital display can be inverted.

Eco mode (Note 2)

If no key is pressed for 20 sec. approx.

while in “RUN” mode, the digital display

turns off automatically. Press the

setting switch or move the operation

mode switch to make the display light

up again. The digital display will light

up when the threshold value adjuster is

turned, but note that this will also cause

the threshold value to change.

Peak / Bottom hold

mode

If the setting switch is pressed while

“RUN” mode is active, the display will

alternate between the peak hold value

and the bottom hold value. (The

display will refresh every 2 sec.) The

display will return to normal if any

operation other than threshold value

setting is carried out.

Notes: 1) This mode is not incorporated in the blue LED type and green LED type.

2) While the peak / bottom hold mode is ON, the digital display is not

turned off even if the Eco mode is set to ON.

Note: Although the display changes to the indication of ‘SET’ condition

2 sec. after pressing the setting switch, keep pressing the switch.

Furthermore, the sensor does not go into the key lock setting from

‘SET’ condition.

Error description

Measures

The load has short-circuited

and excess current is flowing.

Turn off the power, then

check the load.

Communication error has

occurred at time of connection.

Check if the mounted amplifiers are

in close contact with each other.

• Do not use during the initial transient time (0.5 sec.) after

the power supply is switched on.

• This sensor is suitable for indoor use only.

• Do not use this sensor in places having excessive vapor,

dust, etc., or where it may come in contact with corrosive

gas.

• Take care that the sensor does not come in direct contact

with oil, grease, organic solvents, such as, thinner etc., or

strong acid, and alkaline.

• This sensor cannot be used in an environment containing

inflammable or explosive gases.

• Never disassemble or modify the sensor.

• The changes to the settings are written to the EEPROM,

but because the EEPROM has a limited service life,

you should avoid changing the settings any more than 1

million times.

Others

• When the setting switch

is pressed and hold for 5

sec. while in ‘RUN’ mode,

the key lock function can

be set / canceled.

• When the key lock function

is set to ON, even if the

threshold value adjuster or

the setting switch is operated, “

” is displayed and the

key operation cannot be carried out.

• When the setting switch is pressed and held for 10 sec.,

until “

” is displayed while in ‘RUN’ mode, the all

settings are returned to the factory setting.

(For the factory setting, refer to ‘Mode table’ in ‘

Mode

selection’.)
