Photoelectric Sensors
4-2. Teaching a Through-beam Fiber Unit without a Work-
piece
A value about 6% less than the incident light level can be set as the
threshold value. This method is ideal when detecting very small dif-
ferences in light level, such as when detecting very fine workpieces
or transparent workpieces like transparent fibers.
4-3. Teaching a Reflective Fiber Unit without a Workpiece
A value about 6% greater than the incident light level can be set as
the threshold value. This method is ideal when using a Reflective
Fiber Unit to detect workpieces so that detection is not influenced to
any great degree by dust and other environmental factors.
4-4. Teaching With and Without a Workpiece
Teaching can be performed twice, once with and once without a
workpiece, and the value between the two measured value can be
set as the threshold.
