Wiring
• The self-diagnosis output does not incorporate a short-
circuit protection circuit. Do not connect it directly to a
power supply or a capacitive load.

Sensitivity for detecting minute differences
Setting for minute detection is possible just by pressing
a button once without the object being present.
For detecting
a tiny object
By pressing either ON or OFF button for 3 sec. or more, the threshold level is
set 15 % either lower or higher
than the object absent level as
shown in the right gure.
Please note that the output
operation cannot be reversed.
For example, press the ON
button for detecting a tiny object.

Setting procedure
If the incident light is stable in either the object present or object absent
state, by shifting the threshold level towards this state, stable sensing
is possible even if the incident light is unstable in the other state.
The setting level is the same as for limit sensitivity setting. However,
since the operating level is shifted after the normal sensitivity setting,
output operation is selectable.
Press the sensitivity setting button which was pressed in the stable
light received condition. For example, for a diffuse reective type
sensor, in case a background object is present, press the button
which was pressed with only the background object being sensed.

Remote sensitivity selection function (SU-79 only)
• SU-79 can store four channels of sensitivity levels, which
can be selected as per your requirement.
Designate the channel that is to store the sensitivity by
making the remote sensitivity selection inputs 1 and 2
suitably High or Low.

*How to set sensitivity with external inputs
Instead of pressing buttons, the sensitivity can be set with the remote
sensitivity setting inputs. (There is no external sensitivity shift mode.)
Setting procedure
The procedure is the same as for setting with sensitivity buttons, except that
instead of pressing the buttons, the remote sensitivity setting input wire is short-
circuited to 0 V. The mode selection switch is set to either the “SET” or “RUN” side.

Sensing output
If the difference between the ON and OFF levels (the difference
between incident light levels) is so small that stable detection is
not possible, it does not turn ON.
Remote sensitivity setting (SU-77 only)
The sensor recognizes the ON (object present) and OFF (object absent) levels by your pressing
of the buttons. The threshold level is automatically set at the middle between ON and OFF levels.
The maximum sensitivity is set. Take
care that, in case of the diffuse reective
type, if a background object is present,
the sensing output may turn ON even
without the sensing object.
