Stable sensing over long and short periods FX-31 FX-31-HS FX-35 Even greater sensing range All models In addition to a four-chemical emitting element which suppresses changes in the light emitting element over time so that a stable level of light emission can be maintained over long periods, a APC (Auto Power Control) circuit has also been adopted afreshly. The light emitting amount can be controlled in minute degrees so that even changes occurring over very short periods can be handled, allowing stable sensing performance by suppressing deviations in light emitting amounts caused by changes in the ambient environment that could not previously be suppressed. Adoption of a double coupling lens that increases emission efficiency to its maximum limits and greatly increases sensing range. Sensing ranges with small diameter fibers and ultra-small diameter fibers, which have become very popular due to the miniaturization of chip components, have been increased by 5 % over previous values achieved with other amplifiers. Conventional fiber sensors (Without lens) Stable sensing comparison ight emitting amount Short-term stability Deviation ong-term stability Time FX-31 FX-31-HS FX-35 Three-chemical emitting element, Without APC Double coupling lens Disperses the light reduces emitting efficiency. The lens concentrates the light, greatly increasing emitting efficiency.

2 Digital Sensor SERIES 178 APPICATIONS Detecting the presence or absence of labels The light-emitting amount selection function can even stabilize detection of transparent labels that saturate the light-receiving level. Detecting the presence or absence of ICs on a tray You can set upper and lower limits for the threshold values using the window comparator mode and turn ON / OFF the incident light intensity within that limit. Detecting the passage of small objects The differential sensing mode will only detect rapid changes in the amount of light, which makes it possible for small objects to be detected. PHOTO PHOTO ight-emitting amount selection FX-31 FX-31-HS FX-35 If the light receiving level becomes saturated during close-range sensing or when sensing transparent or minute objects, you can adjust the light emitting amount of the sensor to stabilize sensing without needing to change the response time. Sensing that previously required the response time or fibers to be changed can now be set much more easily using this function. arge display 9999 FX-35 arge display with 4 digits (9999). With a greater difference in digit value than previous models, threshold values can be set in units of 1 digit up to maximum Threshold setting can now be done more easily and accurately. (During, ONG and U-G modes) Digit difference: Small 2.5 times previous models Previous models 4 [ight receiving level saturated] Digit difference comparison Example Digit difference between object A and object B A 4 B Digit difference: arge Actual digit difference: C Upper display limit Saturated digit difference: D FX ight emitting amount changed [Stable sensing] A, B, Actual digit difference: C Ultra high-speed 35 µs response FX-31-HS Ultra high-speed 35 µs response. Even small objects moving at high speeds can be sensed. In addition, at 65 µs the FX-31 standard type and FX-35 highfunction type is also twice as fast as previous models. evel 4 evel 3 evel 2 evel 1 OFF ight emitting amount can be changed without changing response time Ultra high-speed type FX-31-HS (H-SP mode) 35 μs Standard type FX-31, High-function type FX-35 (H-SP mode) 65 μs Previous model 15 μs 4 times as fast as before 35 µs MEASURE

3 179 Digital Sensor SERIES PHOTO PHOTO Simplified systems using new operating modes A window comparator mode and differential sensing mode have been added. These modes make it easy to carry out sensing tasks that previously required multiple sensors or involved complex threshold settings. Window comparator mode <Sensing ICs in trays> Differential sensing mode <Sensing of tiny moving objects> FX-35 MEASURE Equipped with 5 types timers Tray absent IC present Tray present OFF ON OFF Incident light intensity Upper and lower limits for threshold values can be set so that the incident light intensity can turn on and off within those ranges. Single output is used, so that only one cable is required, and no PC processing is required either. The FX-35 includes the same ON-delay / OFF-delay / ONE SHOT timer as the FX-31(-HS), as well as an ON-delay OFF-delay timer and an ON-delay ONE SHOT timer. A wide variety of timer control operations can be carried out by these fiber sensors alone. Timer period Output 1:.5 to 9,999 ms (variable) Output 2:.5 to 5 ms (variable) Incident light intensity ON-delay ower light amounts due to dust Because sensing is not possible at normal sensitivity settings, sensitivity must be reset. ON ON Sensing of only sudden changes in light amounts Only the target objects are sensed. No need to reset the sensitivity.

4 Digital Sensor SERIES 18 The use of only two switches makes for very simple operations Only two switches, the large jog switch and the large MODE key, are required for operation. You can operate it simply by the 3 steps shown on the right. arge MODE key Pressing the switch selects or cancels the operating mode A quick-connection cable saves wiring and work-hours Connector type One unit can be used as either a main unit or sub unit The amplifier unit can be used as either a main unit or a sub unit. This feature allows for easy mounting in the side-by-side configuration. The main and sub unit functions are distinguished only by the proper use of the main cable and the sub cable. Moreover, inventory management and maintenance is simplified.

This greatly reduces troublesome setup tasks and makes setup much smoother.in addition, troublesome adjustment operations at times such as when replacing sensors can also be carried out easily and data can also be copied and stored Single copy & save operation for all amplifiers using the optical communication function. * Use the optical communication function for only the same types of sensors. Furthermore, the FX-31-HS is not equipped with optical communication function capability. Settings can be entered directly using numerical input All models Every function can be directly set merely by the input of a four digit code (numbers) from the code table. This convenient feature is easy to set up. In the event that settings are accidentally changed at the operating site, merely entering the correct code can restore the original settings. This results in easy and quick maintenance. Communication unit improves equipment starting up and maintenance External input unit for digital sensor FX-CH2 Teaching and changing settings can be performed by using the PC and touch panel. Various settings and switching of up to 16 units of digital fiber sensors can be accomplished at once without operating the actual sensors themselves, but via external signals, such as the PC, touch panel, and push buttons. <Main functions> Batch teaching Key lock setting Batch loading / saving of the data bank Upper communication unit for digital sensor First digit: Settings for response time and hysteresis Second digit: Settings for /D ON and display mode Fourth digit: Timer period settings Third digit: Settings for Adjust lock and timer SC-GU1-485 We now offer remote maintenance for digital sensors!

20 Digital Sensor SERIES 196 PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER Refer to General precautions, p.8~ for fiber precautions, and to the PRO mode operation guide on our website for details pertaining to operating instructions for the amplifier. Mounting Connection 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. The digital fiber sensor FX-31(P) has been modified since its production in June 24. The explanations below are about the modified product. How to mount the amplifier Fit the rear part of the mounting section of the amplifier on a 35 mm in width DIN rail. Press down the rear part of the mounting section of the unit on the 35 mm in width DIN rail and fit the front part of the mounting section to the 35 mm in width DIN rail. How to remove the amplifier Push the amplifier forward. ift up the front part of the amplifier to remove it. Note: Take care that if the front part is lifted without pushing the amplifier forward, the hook on the rear portion of the mounting section is likely to break. installation 35 mm in width DIN rail Insert the fiber into the amplifier after attaching the attachment. Refer to the "Instruction Manual" included with the fiber for details. Push the fiber lock lever down. Slowly insert the fiber into the insertion lock lever slot until it stops. (Note 1) Push the fiber lock lever back up until it stops. Notes: 1) Note that if the fiber is not fully inserted, the sensing distance will decrease. Also note that the flexible fiber may bend during insertion. 2) In case of coaxial reflective type fibers (FD-G4, FD-FM2, etc.), mount the central fiber (single-core) to the emitter part and the peripheral fiber (multi-core) to the receiver. Note that sensing precision will deteriorate when done in reverse. Make sure that the power supply is off while connecting or disconnecting the quick-connection cable. Connection method Holding the connector of the quick-connection cable, align its projection with the groove at the top portion of the amplifier connector. Insert the connector till a click is felt. Groove Projection Quick-connection cable Disconnection method Pressing the projection at the top of the quick-connection cable, pull out the connector. Note: Take care that if the connector is pulled out without pressing the projection, the projection may break. Do not use a quick-connection cable whose projection has broken. Further, do not pull by holding the cable, as this can cause a cable-break. Cascading Projection Make sure that the power supply is off while adding or removing the amplifiers. Make sure to check the allowable ambient temperature, as it depends on the number of amplifiers connected in cascade. In case two, or more, amplifiers are connected in cascade, make sure to mount them on a DIN rail. When the amplifiers move on the DIN rail depending on the attaching condition or the amplifiers are mounted close to each other in cascade, fit them between the optional end plates (MS-DIN-E) mounted at the two ends. Up to maximum 15 amplifiers can be added (total 16 amplifiers connected in cascade.) When connecting more than two amplifiers in cascade, use the sub cable (CN-71-C / CN-72-C ) as the quick-connection cable for the second amplifier onwards. When connecting amplifiers not close to each other in parallel, be sure to mount the optional end plate (MS-DIN-E) at both sides of each amplifier or affix the communication window seal of the accessory amplifier protection seal (FX-MB1) to the communication windows. The settings other than the interference prevention function cannot be transmitted between FX-31(P) FX-31B/G/H(P), FX-35(P). Therefore, in case both models of amplifiers are mounted in cascade, be sure to mount identical models together. However, the interference prevention function is not incorporated in the FX-31(P)-HS. Take care when the sensors are mounted in cascade. If the FX-31(P) updated version unit or the FX-35(P) is mounted with the FX-31(P) previous version unit or the FX-31B/G/H(P) in cascade, place the FX-31(P) updated version units and the FX-35(P) units to the right side (seen from the connector side) of the previous version units. For details, refer to Cautions on sensor connection in cascade. For a difference between the updated version unit and the previous version unit, refer to A difference between the updated version unit and the previous version unit. The communication function of this product and that of the FX-31(P)-F / F7 is different. If these models are mounted in cascade, affix the accessory fiber amplifier protection seal (FX-MB1) included in the FX-31(P) and FX-35(P) to the communication windows of the amplifiers.

21 197 Digital Sensor SERIES PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER Refer to General precautions, p.8~ for fiber precautions, and to the PRO mode operation guide on our website for details pertaining to operating instructions for the amplifier. Cascading method Mount the amplifiers, one by one, on the 35 mm in width DIN rail. Slide the amplifiers next to each other, and connect the quickconnection cables. Mount the optional end plates (MS-DIN-E) at both the ends to hold the amplifiers between their flat sides. Tighten the screws to fix the end plates.

Wiring Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring. 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 product may get burnt or damaged. 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. 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. Take care that short circuit of the load wrong wiring may burn or damage the product. 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. Make sure to use an isolation transformer for the DC power supply. If an autotransformer (single winding transformer) is used, this product or the power supply may get damaged. Make sure to use the optional quick-connection cable for the connection of the amplifier. Extension up to total 1 m ft is possible with.3 mm 2, or more, cable. (5-8 unit expansion: 5 m ft, 9-16 unit expansion: 2 m ft) However, in order to reduce noise, make the wiring as short as possible. Note that the residual voltage will increase when the cable is extended. Key-lock function If jog switch and MODE key are pressed for more than 2 sec. at the same time in RUN mode condition, the key operations are locked, and only the threshold value confirmation function or the adjust function (valid only when the adjust lock function is canceled) is valid. To cancel the lock function, press both the keys for more than 2 sec. once again. Note: 3 seconds or more for FX-31B/G/H(P). Others When the emission halt of the light emitting amount selection function is set from OFF to ON, the output may be unstable. Do not use the output control for.5 sec. after starting emission. Do not use during the initial transient time (.5 sec.) after the power supply is switched on. Take care that the sensor is not directly exposed to fluorescent lamp from a rapid-starter lamp, a high frequency lighting device or sunlight etc., as it may affect the sensing performance.

After change: The type of timer can be changed using the TIMER function in NAVI mode. 2. Checking threshold value in RUN mode The threshold values can be checked by turning the jog switch. Display changes 1. Checking blinking of sensitivity surplus The stable surplus display method after teaching has been changed. Previous version unit: Sensitivity surplus is indicated by the number of blinks of the stability indicator. After change Digital display only 2. Initial direct code value changed The factory default settings for the direct codes have been changed. Previous version unit After change 4 * The default setting for the timer period is 1 ms, and the direct code for 1 ms is 4, so this has been changed. Internal circuit changes 1. Addition of an APC circuit A four-chemical emitting element which provides stable sensing over long periods has been added, as well as an APC (Auto Power Control) circuit that improves stability during short periods. Cautions on sensor connection in cascade When connecting the previous version unit (including FX-31B/G/H) and updated version unit to be used in a cascade, refer to Cautions on sensor connection in cascade. 2. Extension of timer period The setting range for the timer period was previously 5 ms, but this has been extended to a new range of 9,999 ms. 3. ight emitting amount selection function The light emitting amount can be changed to one of 4 levels (5 levels when emission halt is included). 4. Backup, copy lock and key lock functions added Backup: This selects whether or not threshold values set by teaching are written to (stored in) an EEPROM. Copy lock: This selects whether copy function and data bank function communication are possible or not. Key lock: This disables input using switches to prevent accidental changing of settings.
