Applications
Packaging, stickers industry: Label status, Mark color check, etc.
Electronic components, semiconductor industry: Defecti e unit
check, Connector color check, etc.
General photoelectric sensor detects present or absent of target by light.
Color mark sensor detects colors of surfaces by RGB (red, green, and
blue) light source.
Sa ing the desired color at the inner memory, color mark sensor emits
RGB LED light source to the target sequentially.
Color mark sensor calculates ratio of the three colors, RGB, for the
optimized sensing ia the inner light collection lens.
Using off-axis optical system for minimized optical loss, and cylindrical
lens, BC Series compares setting color and sensing color with full-color
determination.

1. Operation indicator (OUT): ON (red) indicates operation.
2. Stability indicator (STB): ON (green) indicates stable status.
3. Timer indicator (TMR): ON (orange) when timer is set.
4. Teaching indicator:
Displays the reference color after successfully "teaching" the color.
※The teaching color and the color displayed on the teaching indicator
may differ depending on en ironment conditions (ambient light,
reflection angle, material, etc.) .
5. SET key: Used for function settings.
6. Color match/mismatch switch
- N.O.: Output ON when target color matches reference color.
- N.C.: Output ON when target color does not match reference color.

①Installation
: Place the color mark sensor and the target object facing each other then
affix the unit. The installation distance should be within ±2mm of 15mm .
② Press the SET key to enter teaching standby status. Place the desired color
at the sensing position (spot) and hold the SET key for 3 seconds to set the
reference color. When it is complete, the teaching indicator will display the set
color
③ Hold the SET key for 3 seconds change sensing mode and sensiti ity
settings.
④ Hold the SET key for 5 seconds to set the timer. The timer is a 40ms OFF
delay timer.
※ In case of teaching error, the output indicator and teaching indicator will flash
depending on the intensity of recei ed light.
※ When detecting metal or glossy objects tilt install the sensor at about 10 to 20
degree angle.

Color teaching
Set the reference color with the teaching function. Press the SET key in RUN mode to enter teaching standby status. Place the desired
color at the sensing position (spot) and hold the SET key for o er 3 seconds.
When teaching is complete, the teaching color indicator will turn ON.
When there is an error, the operation indicator will flash (red).
Display teaching
The set reference color can be displayed on the teaching indicator.
With the ability to check the set reference color there is no need to re-set the teaching color e ery time.
It may difficult to check the similar colors when installing multiple sensors.
Teaching indicator color is a ailable only for reference.
※The teaching color and the color displayed on the teaching indicator may differ depending on en ironment conditions (ambient light,
reflection angle, material, etc.)
Sensing mode, sensitivity setting (color tolerance)
Two sensing modes; C (color only) mode discriminates by color rate and C+I (color +intensity) mode discriminates by color rate and contrast.
Set the sensing sensiti ity (fine, normal, rough) at each sensing mode.
Color match/mismatch mode
- Color match mode (N.O.) : Output ON when target color matches reference color.
Turn the color match/mismatch switch towards N.O.
- Color mismatch mode (N.C.) : Output ON when target color does not match reference color.
Turn the color match/mismatch switch towards N.C.
OFF delay timer
Timer (40ms OFF delay) functions helps pre ent output malfunction from target objects mo ing too rapidly. The timer indicator turns ON
(orange) when the timer function is set.
