Precautions

Sensing Distance Adjustment

E3S-LS10XE4

Adjustment Method

1. Set the pointer of the sensitivity adjuster to the center of its

revolution range.

2. Turn the distance adjuster fully counterclockwise to the “S”

position.

3. Set the sensing object in position.

4. Turn the distance adjuster gradually clockwise to a point

where both the LIGHT and STABILITY indicators light. Fix the

distance adjuster at that point.

5. Adjust sensitivity.

Background object

E3S-LS20XE4

Adjustment Method 1

When the quantity of light reflected from the object is greater than

that from the background object, adjust the sensing distance in the

following sequence:

1. Set the pointer of the sensitivity adjuster to the center of its

revolution range.

2. Turn the distance adjuster fully counterclockwise to the “S”

position.

3. Set the sensing object in position.

4. Turn the distance adjuster gradually clockwise to a point

where both the LIGHT and STABILITY indicators light. Fix the

distance adjuster at that point.

5. Adjust sensitivity.

following sequence:

1. Set the pointer of the sensitivity adjuster to the center of its

revolution range.

2. Turn the distance adjuster fully counterclockwise to the “L”

position.

3. Remove the sending object.

4. Turn the distance adjuster gradually clockwise to a point

where both the LIGHT and STABILITY indicators light. Fix the

distance adjuster at that point.

5. Adjust sensitivity.
