Setting the Current Received Light Intensity to 0 (Zero Shift)

This function adjusts the current received light intensity display to "

0

". It is primarily

used with reflective sensor heads. If the received light intensity cannot be set to "

0

"

when a reflective model is installed, this function can be used to set the received light
intensity to "

0

" with no workpiece present. This makes the difference in received light

intensity easier to distinguish.

Enabling the zero shift function

1

When the PST indicator is off, press
the [PRESET] button and

button

simultaneously.
The PST indicator lights in green, and the
received light intensity changes to "

0

".

Disabling the zero shift function

1

Press and hold the [PRESET] button.
The PST indicator turns off, indicating that the zero shift function has been dis-
abled.

Operating Principle of the Zero Shift Function

In applications for distinguishing colors or
for detecting objects on a background,
the received light intensity will not be "

0

"

even when no workpiece is present.

Applying zero shift input to the lower
level of received light intensity (with
no workpiece present) enhances
the detection display visibility.
