E2K-C
Sensitivity Adjustment
• Remove the rear rubber cap of the E2K-C and turn the
potentiometer in the hole to adjust the sensitivity of the E2K-C.
(There is no rubber cap on the E2K-C20M@@.)
Remove this rubber
cap and adjust the
potentiometer.
• The sensing distance is increased by turning the potentiometer
clockwise and is decreased by turning the potentiometer
counterclockwise. The potentiometer can make 15±3 valid turns
and then make slip turns because the potentiometer does not have
a stopper. The slip turns will not, however, damage the
potentiometer.
(1)Slowly turn the potentiometer clockwise until the E2K-C turns ON
with no sensing object.
Potentiometer
Stop turning the potentiometer
at the moment the E2K-C turns on.
Operating Procedures: Proximity Sensors
(2)Turn the potentiometer counterclockwise until the E2K-C turns
OFF with the sensing object located within the sensing distance.
Potentiometer
Stop turning the potentiometer
at the moment the E2K-C turns off.
(3)The E2K-C will be in stable operation if there is a difference of 1.5
turns or more between the points the E2K-C is turned ON and
OFF, otherwise the E2K-C will not operate stably.
The point the
E2K-C turns on.
Stable detection if the
difference is 1.5 turns
or more.
The point the
E2K-C turns off.
(4)Set the potentiometer midway between the two points.
The point the
E2K-C turns on.
Midway
The point the
E2K-C turns off.
(5)If the distances to the sensing objects vary, take step 2 with the
sensing object located at the farthest sensing distance to be
applied.
