Installing the Color Sensor

NOTE: When sensing glossy surfaces, install the sensor at approximately a 15° angle

with respect to the target. See Figure 5.

1. Determine the best position for the swivel connector (back, side, or bottom of the

sensor).

2. Measure the appropriate operating distance from the front surface of the sensor

optics to the point where the sensor is to be fastened. Typically, the ideal distance

is 20 mm (0.8").

3. Fasten the sensor to its intended location using two screws (M4x35 or longer). Any

two of three holes in the housing may be used for this purpose.

4. Attach the power cable to the sensor’s connector; see hookups on page 7.
NOTE: When the sensor is ON, the white emitter beam is ON and a message

(“run” or “rund”) appears on the 4-digit status display.

Sensing Beam

Pulsed white LED (400 to 700 nm)

Sensing Receiver

Solid-state photodiode device with R, G, B filters

Sensing Range

20 mm (0.8") typical; varies depending on sensor configuration

Supply Voltage

10 to 30V dc, 2 V pp max ripple

40 mA max @ 24V dc (excluding output current)

Supply Protection Circuitry

Protected against reverse polarity, over-voltage, and transient voltage

Output Configuration
