Operating Range Change
 Operating Range Change Function
 Overview
Can set F3SJ’s operating range shorter.
 Example
•To set shorter operating range for F3SJ to prevent other photoelectric sensor to be affected
•To set shorter operating range for short installation distance to prevent mutual interference
 Functional Description
• Operating Range
Setting for operating range can be selected from 0.5m, 1m, 2m, 3m, 5m, and MAX (7m or 9m).
Best operating range can be configured for installation distance.
MAX indicates rated operating range.
Rated Operating Range
F3SJ-ANxx : If  1649; 9m
F3SJ-ANxx : If  1655; 7m
Setting shorter operating range for F3SJ can reduce emission light intensity thus influence on other photoelectric
sensor. At the same time, F3SJ’s threshold value is improved, reducing influence from other photoelectric sensor.
 Setting Change
Configure for each CH in case of a series connection.
In case of series connection, it must be configured for each F3SJ.
