For details on the operation of the BGS / FGS functions, refer to p.24, ‘PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE’.
BGS / FGS functions make even the most challenging settings possible!
The BGS function is best suited for the following case
The FGS function is best suited for the following case
When object and background are separated
Background not present Background present
When object and background are close together
When the object is glossy or uneven
The sensor judges that an object is present when light is received
at position A of the light-receiving element (2-segment element).
This is useful if the object and background are far apart. The
distance adjustment method is the same as the conventional
adjustment method for adjustable range reflective type sensors.
The sensor judges that an object is present when no light is
received at position B of the light-receiving element (2-
segment element). Accordingly, even objects that are glossy
can be sensed. This is useful if the object and background
are close together, or if the object being sensed is glossy.

Sensing
object
Adjustable range: B
The adjustable range stands for the maximum sensing range which can be set with the
distance adjuster. The sensor can detect an object 2 mm 0.079 in [CX-444(-P): 15 mm
0.591 in, CX-442(-P): 20 mm 0.787 in], or more, away.
Refer to ‘Stability indicator’ (p.182) of ‘PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE’ for the details
of operation indicator.
Note that detection may be unstable depending on the mounting conditions or the sensing
object. In the state that this product is mounted, be sure to check the operation with the
actual sensing object.

Retroreflective type sensor for transparent object sensing (CX-48)
• Optimum sensing is possible when the position of the transparent
sensing object is set at the center of the sensor and the reflector.
If the sensing position is set near the sensor or the reflector, the
sensing may be unstable.
In this case, set the sensing position at the center of the sensor
and the reflector.
•
•
When the sensor detects an uneven plastic receptacle or glass
bottle, the received-light amount may differ with the sensing
position or direction. Adjust the sensitivity after confirming the
stable sensing condition by turning the sensing object, etc.
When sensing pipe-shaped transparent sensing object, set it in a
standing, not lying, position as shown in Figure A. The sensor
may fail to detect a lying object as shown in Figure B.
• Please take care of the following
points when detecting materials
having a gloss.
Make L, shown in the diagram,
sufficiently long.
Install at an angle of 10 to 30
degrees to the sensing object.

Sensitivity
adjuster
Turn the sensitivity adjuster fully counter-
clockwise to the minimum sensitivity position,
MIN.
Optimum position
In the light received condition, turn the
sensitivity adjuster slowly clockwise and
confirm the point a where the sensor enters
the ‘Light’ state operation.
()
In the dark condition, turn the sensitivity
adjuster further clockwise until the sensor
enters the
‘
Light
’
state operation and then bring
it back to confirm point
b
where the sensor
just returns to the
‘
Dark
’
state operation.
If the sensor does not enter the ‘Light’
state operation even when the sensitivity
adjuster is turned fully clockwise, the
position is point b.
The position at the middle of point a and b
is the optimum sensing position.
Note: Use the ‘minus’ adjusting screwdriver (please arrange separately) to
turn the adjuster slowly. Turning with excessive strength will cause
damage to the adjuster.

Interference prevention filter (Optional)
(Exclusively for CX-411)
• By mounting interference prevention filters (PF-CX4-), two set
of CX-411 can be mounted close together.
However, the sensing range is reduced when the interferenc
prevention filter is mounted.
• The filters can be mounted by the same method as for the s
masks.
• The two sets of sensors should be fitted with different types o
interference prevention filters.
Interference prevention does not work if the filters are mounte
for emitters only, receivers only or if the same model No. o
interference prevention filters are mounted on both sets o
sensors.

Tilt
Care must be taken regarding the sensor mounting direction with
respect to the object’s direction of movement.
•
•
•
When detecting a specular object (aluminum or copper foil, etc.)
or an object having a glossy surface or coating, please take care
that there are cases when the object may not be detected due to
a change in angle, wrinkles on the object surface, etc.
When a specular body is present below the sensor, use the
sensor by tilting it slightly upwards to avoid wrong operation.
•
•
If a specular body is present in the background, wrong operation
may be caused due to a small change in the angle of the
background body. In that case, install the sensor at an inclination
and confirm the operation with the actual sensing object.
Take care that there is a non-detectable area right in front of the
sensor.

• Since the CX-44 uses a 2-segment photodiode as its receiving
element, and sensing is done based on the difference in the
incident beam angle of the reflected beam from the sensing
object, the output and the operation indicator (orange) operate
according to the object distance.
Furthermore, the stability indicator (green) shows the margin of

Turn the distance adjuster gradually and lightly with a ‘minus’
screwdriver (please arrange separately). In order to protect itself,
the distance adjuster idles if turned fully.
If the adjuster is idled when distance adjustment is done, carry out
the adjustment again.
Distance adjustment
When this product is used, be sure to carry out the
distance adjustment.
Since the distance adjuster of this sensor is a 5-turn
adjuster, when the point a and b is adjusted as
explained in the table right, there may be more than
1 turn between the point a and b. Therefore, make
sure to remember the turns of both points to find the
optimum position.
Be sure to wire the sensing mode selection input
(Pink / 2) before distance adjustment. If the wiring is
done after the distance adjustment, the sensing
area is changed.

Step Description
Distance adjuster
Turn the distance adjuster fully counterclockwise to the
minimum sensing range position. (CX-441/443/
444: 20 mm 0.787 in approx., CX-442: 40 mm
1.575 in approx.)
Remove the object, turn the adjuster clockwise
further until the sensor goes into the detecting
state again. Once it has entered, turn the distance
adjuster backward until the sensor returns to the
non-detecting condition. This position is designated
as point b. When the sensor does not go into the
detecting condition even if the adjuster is turned
fully clockwise, the position where the adjuster was
fully turned is regarded as the point b.
There may be more than 1 turn between point a
and b, since this sensor incorporates a 5-turn
Place an object at the required distance from the
sensor, turn the distance adjuster gradually
clockwise, and find out point a where the sensor
changes to the detecting condition.

Step Description
Distance adjuster
Turn the distance adjuster fully clockwise to the
maximum sensing range position. (CX-441/443:
50 mm 1.969 in approx., CX-444: 100 mm 3.937 in
approx., CX-442: 300 mm 11.811 in approx.)
Place an object at the required distance from the
sensor, turn the adjuster counterclockwise further
until the sensor goes into the non-detecting
condition again. Once entered, turn the distance
adjuster backward until the sensor returns to the
detecting condition. This position is designated as
point b. When the sensor does not go into the non-
detecting condition even if the adjuster is turned
fully counterclockwise, the position where the
adjuster was fully turned is regarded as the pointb.
There may be more than 1 turn between point a
and b, since this sensor incorporates a 5-turn
In the state where the sensor detects the
background, turn the distance adjuster gradually
counterclockwise, and find out point a where the
sensor changes to the non-detecting condition.
Optimum
position
Turn fully
Optimum
position
The optimum position to stably detect objects is the
center point between a and b.
The optimum position to stably detect objects is
the center point between a and b .
