PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE

.

• When the beam-emitting and beam-receiving fiber cables are

inserted into the fiber sensor amplifier (FX-301/302/303/311
ser ies etc.), the enclosed fiber attachment
(FX-AT2/AT3/AT4/AT5/AT6) facilitates insertion of the fiber
cables and reduces the possibility of incorrect fiber cable
insertion.
