Set the sensitivity adjuster to halfway
between (A) and (C) (at the optimum
sensitivity). Check that the stability
indicator (green LED) turns ON
according to whether the sensing object
is there or not. There is not sufficient
margin if it does not turn ON. If this is the
case, reconsider the detection method.
Unlike conventional Photoelectric Sensors, the variation in the sensitivity of E3S-A Photoelectric Sensors is minimal. This means
the sensitivity can be adjusted on only a single Photoelectric Sensor, and then the adjusters on the other Photoelectric Sensors
can be set to the same scale position. There is no need to adjust the sensitivity of each Photoelectric Sensor individually.
