1-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is method to set the shift amount to the desired value and to set the
threshold range by using the 1-point teaching.
Notes 1)
The shift amount of 10% is an initial value. The shift amount can be set in PRO mode. Furthermore, the shift
value can be set in incident light amount. For setting method, refer to “PRO MODE OPERATION MANUAL.”
2) If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.
2-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is method to set the threshold range by conducting the 2-point teaching (P-1, P-2).
●When conducting teaching, use sensing objects (P-1 and P-2) whose incident
light intensities are different from each other.
Note: If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.
3-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is the method to conduct the 3-point teaching (P-1, P-2, P-3) and to set the
threshold range by setting the threshold value (1_SL) of the mid-point between “A”
and “B” and the threshold value (2_SL) of the mid-point between “B” and “C”.
●When conducting teaching, use sensing objects (A, B and C) whose incident
light intensities are different.
●After teaching, P-1, P-2 and P-3 will be automatically relocated in ascending order:
i.e. the lowest value is placed in “A”, the second lowest in “B” and the highest in “C”.
Note: If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.

OPTICAL COMMUNICATION
●When the setting of data bank loading / saving, copy setting, or copy action
setting is conducted via optical communications, cascade the sub ampliers
right side to the main amplier as follows.
However, in case using data bank loading / saving, use FX-502□ or FX-505□-C2
as main amplier.
● If an amplier is under any of the following conditions, the setting of data bank
loading / saving, or copy setting cannot be carried out.
• Copy lock setting is set to copy lock ON “ .”
• Digital display is blinking
• External input setting of main amplier is set to “ .” (Only data-
bank loading / saving)
●When communication protocol of a
sub amplier is set to communication
emission halt “ ” the set-
ting of data bank loading / saving, or
copy setting cannot be carried out to
sub ampliers subsequent to the men-
tioned amplier.
●Make sure to mount closely like fol-
lows since interference prevention
function is conducted by optical com-
munication.
●When this product and other products (e.g. ber sensor ampliers, pressure
sensor controllers, etc.) are connected together in cascade, install those prod-
ucts so that they are in order of Group A, B, D and C as shown in the right g-
ure. This product is included in Group D.

●In case putting in more ampliers than limit of interference prevention func-
tion, put the amplier protection seal to amplier which is adjacent of end of
an amplier that the interference function is valid or set OFF in communication
protocol setting of the end of amplier that the interference prevention function
is valid.
Example: Putting in 12 of this device and set STD of response time setting.
• Possible number of interference prevention is 4.
Put the amplier protection seals 4th and 5th ampliers and between 8th
and 9th ampliers or change the communication protocol setting of 4th and
8th to OFF since interference prevention works from 1st to 4th, from 5th to
8th and 9th to 12th.
●In case mounting more ampliers whose response time setting are different,
put protection seal between ampliers that have different response time setting
or set communication protocol setting of the upper amplier to OFF.
●For communication protocol setting procedure, refer to “PRO MODE OPERA-
TION MANUAL.”

CAUTIONS
●This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
● Make sure that the power supply is OFF while adding or removing the ampliers.
●Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is applied, or if an AC
power supply is directly connected, the product may get burnt or be damaged.
●Take care that short-circuit of the load or wrong wiring may burn or damage the product.
●Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines, or put
them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction.
● The specication may not be satised in a strong magnetic eld.
●Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
●If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame
ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
●In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.)
is used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal
of the equipment to an actual ground.
●The ultra long distance (U-LG, HYPR) mode is more likely to be affected by
extraneous noise since the sensitivity of that is higher than the other modes.
Make sure to check the environment before use.
●Do not use during the initial transient time (H-SP, FAST, STD: 0.5 sec., LONG,
U-LG, HYPR: 1 sec.) after the power supply is switched ON.
●Use same power supply when mounting adjacently.
●Extension up to total 100m is possible. When you extend the cable, be sure the power sup-
ply voltage is 12V DC or more and use cables which have 0.3mm2or more of conductor
cross-section area. However, in order to reduce noise, make the wiring as short as possible.
●Make sure that stress by forcible bend or pulling is not applied to the sensor
cable joint and ber cable.
●This product is suitable for indoor use only.
●Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
●Take care that the product does not come in contact with oil, grease, organic
solvents such as thinner, etc., strong acid or alkaline.
● This product cannot be used in an environment containing inammable or ex-
plosive gasses.
●Never disassemble or modify the product.
●This product adopts EEPROM. Settings cannot be done 100 thousand times
or more because of the EEPROM’s lifetime.

1-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is method to set the shift amount to the desired value and to set the
threshold range by using the 1-point teaching.
Notes 1)
The shift amount of 10% is an initial value. The shift amount can be set in PRO mode. Furthermore, the shift
value can be set in incident light amount. For setting method, refer to “PRO MODE OPERATION MANUAL.”
2) If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.
2-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is method to set the threshold range by conducting the 2-point teaching (P-1, P-2).
●When conducting teaching, use sensing objects (P-1 and P-2) whose incident
light intensities are different from each other.
Note: If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.
3-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is the method to conduct the 3-point teaching (P-1, P-2, P-3) and to set the
threshold range by setting the threshold value (1_SL) of the mid-point between “A”
and “B” and the threshold value (2_SL) of the mid-point between “B” and “C”.
●When conducting teaching, use sensing objects (A, B and C) whose incident
light intensities are different.
●After teaching, P-1, P-2 and P-3 will be automatically relocated in ascending order:
i.e. the lowest value is placed in “A”, the second lowest in “B” and the highest in “C”.
Note: If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.

setting is conducted via optical communications, cascade the sub ampliers
right side to the main amplier as follows.
However, in case using data bank loading / saving, use FX-502□ or FX-505□-C2
as main amplier.
● If an amplier is under any of the following conditions, the setting of data bank
loading / saving, or copy setting cannot be carried out.
• Copy lock setting is set to copy lock ON “ .”
• Digital display is blinking
• External input setting of main amplier is set to “ .” (Only data-
bank loading / saving)
●When communication protocol of a
sub amplier is set to communication
emission halt “ ” the set-
ting of data bank loading / saving, or
copy setting cannot be carried out to
sub ampliers subsequent to the men-
tioned amplier.
●Make sure to mount closely like fol-
lows since interference prevention
function is conducted by optical com-
munication.
●When this product and other products (e.g. ber sensor ampliers, pressure
sensor controllers, etc.) are connected together in cascade, install those prod-
ucts so that they are in order of Group A, B, D and C as shown in the right g-
ure. This product is included in Group D.

●In case putting in more ampliers than limit of interference prevention func-
tion, put the amplier protection seal to amplier which is adjacent of end of
an amplier that the interference function is valid or set OFF in communication
protocol setting of the end of amplier that the interference prevention function
is valid.
Example: Putting in 12 of this device and set STD of response time setting.
• Possible number of interference prevention is 4.
Put the amplier protection seals 4th and 5th ampliers and between 8th
and 9th ampliers or change the communication protocol setting of 4th and
8th to OFF since interference prevention works from 1st to 4th, from 5th to
8th and 9th to 12th.
●In case mounting more ampliers whose response time setting are different,
put protection seal between ampliers that have different response time setting
or set communication protocol setting of the upper amplier to OFF.
●For communication protocol setting procedure, refer to “PRO MODE OPERA-
TION MANUAL.”

CAUTIONS
●This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
● Make sure that the power supply is OFF while adding or removing the ampliers.
●Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is applied, or if an AC
power supply is directly connected, the product may get burnt or be damaged.
●Take care that short-circuit of the load or wrong wiring may burn or damage the product.
●Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines, or put
them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction.
● The specication may not be satised in a strong magnetic eld.
●Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
●If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame
ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
●In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.)
is used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal
of the equipment to an actual ground.
●The ultra long distance (U-LG, HYPR) mode is more likely to be affected by
extraneous noise since the sensitivity of that is higher than the other modes.
Make sure to check the environment before use.
●Do not use during the initial transient time (H-SP, FAST, STD: 0.5 sec., LONG,
U-LG, HYPR: 1 sec.) after the power supply is switched ON.
●Use same power supply when mounting adjacently.
●Extension up to total 100m is possible. When you extend the cable, be sure the power sup-
ply voltage is 12V DC or more and use cables which have 0.3mm2or more of conductor
cross-section area. However, in order to reduce noise, make the wiring as short as possible.
●Make sure that stress by forcible bend or pulling is not applied to the sensor
cable joint and ber cable.
●This product is suitable for indoor use only.
●Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
●Take care that the product does not come in contact with oil, grease, organic
solvents such as thinner, etc., strong acid or alkaline.
● This product cannot be used in an environment containing inammable or ex-
plosive gasses.
●Never disassemble or modify the product.
●This product adopts EEPROM. Settings cannot be done 100 thousand times
or more because of the EEPROM’s lifetime.

●This is method to set the shift amount to the desired value and to set the
threshold range by using the 1-point teaching.
Notes 1)
The shift amount of 10% is an initial value. The shift amount can be set in PRO mode. Furthermore, the shift
value can be set in incident light amount. For setting method, refer to “PRO MODE OPERATION MANUAL.”
2) If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.
2-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is method to set the threshold range by conducting the 2-point teaching (P-1, P-2).
●When conducting teaching, use sensing objects (P-1 and P-2) whose incident
light intensities are different from each other.
Note: If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.
3-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is the method to conduct the 3-point teaching (P-1, P-2, P-3) and to set the
threshold range by setting the threshold value (1_SL) of the mid-point between “A”
and “B” and the threshold value (2_SL) of the mid-point between “B” and “C”.
●When conducting teaching, use sensing objects (A, B and C) whose incident
light intensities are different.
●After teaching, P-1, P-2 and P-3 will be automatically relocated in ascending order:
i.e. the lowest value is placed in “A”, the second lowest in “B” and the highest in “C”.
Note: If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.

ting of data bank loading / saving, or
copy setting cannot be carried out to
sub ampliers subsequent to the men-
tioned amplier.
●Make sure to mount closely like fol-
lows since interference prevention
function is conducted by optical com-
munication.
●When this product and other products (e.g. ber sensor ampliers, pressure
sensor controllers, etc.) are connected together in cascade, install those prod-
ucts so that they are in order of Group A, B, D and C as shown in the right g-

●In case putting in more ampliers than limit of interference prevention func-
tion, put the amplier protection seal to amplier which is adjacent of end of
an amplier that the interference function is valid or set OFF in communication
protocol setting of the end of amplier that the interference prevention function
is valid.
Example: Putting in 12 of this device and set STD of response time setting.
• Possible number of interference prevention is 4.
Put the amplier protection seals 4th and 5th ampliers and between 8th
and 9th ampliers or change the communication protocol setting of 4th and
8th to OFF since interference prevention works from 1st to 4th, from 5th to
8th and 9th to 12th.
●In case mounting more ampliers whose response time setting are different,
put protection seal between ampliers that have different response time setting
or set communication protocol setting of the upper amplier to OFF.

CAUTIONS
●This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
● Make sure that the power supply is OFF while adding or removing the ampliers.
●Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is applied, or if an AC
power supply is directly connected, the product may get burnt or be damaged.
●Take care that short-circuit of the load or wrong wiring may burn or damage the product.
●Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines, or put
them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction.
● The specication may not be satised in a strong magnetic eld.
●Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
●If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame
ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
●In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.)
is used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal
of the equipment to an actual ground.
●The ultra long distance (U-LG, HYPR) mode is more likely to be affected by
extraneous noise since the sensitivity of that is higher than the other modes.
Make sure to check the environment before use.
●Do not use during the initial transient time (H-SP, FAST, STD: 0.5 sec., LONG,
U-LG, HYPR: 1 sec.) after the power supply is switched ON.
●Use same power supply when mounting adjacently.
●Extension up to total 100m is possible. When you extend the cable, be sure the power sup-
ply voltage is 12V DC or more and use cables which have 0.3mm2or more of conductor
cross-section area. However, in order to reduce noise, make the wiring as short as possible.
●Make sure that stress by forcible bend or pulling is not applied to the sensor
cable joint and ber cable.
●This product is suitable for indoor use only.
●Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
●Take care that the product does not come in contact with oil, grease, organic
solvents such as thinner, etc., strong acid or alkaline.
● This product cannot be used in an environment containing inammable or ex-
plosive gasses.
●Never disassemble or modify the product.
●This product adopts EEPROM. Settings cannot be done 100 thousand times
or more because of the EEPROM’s lifetime.

1-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is method to set the shift amount to the desired value and to set the
threshold range by using the 1-point teaching.
Notes 1)
The shift amount of 10% is an initial value. The shift amount can be set in PRO mode. Furthermore, the shift
value can be set in incident light amount. For setting method, refer to “PRO MODE OPERATION MANUAL.”
2) If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.
2-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is method to set the threshold range by conducting the 2-point teaching (P-1, P-2).
●When conducting teaching, use sensing objects (P-1 and P-2) whose incident
light intensities are different from each other.
Note: If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.
3-point teaching
[Window comparator mode (except sensing output 2) / Hysteresis mode]
●This is the method to conduct the 3-point teaching (P-1, P-2, P-3) and to set the
threshold range by setting the threshold value (1_SL) of the mid-point between “A”
and “B” and the threshold value (2_SL) of the mid-point between “B” and “C”.
●When conducting teaching, use sensing objects (A, B and C) whose incident
light intensities are different.
●After teaching, P-1, P-2 and P-3 will be automatically relocated in ascending order:
i.e. the lowest value is placed in “A”, the second lowest in “B” and the highest in “C”.
Note: If the value after setting exceeds the maximum (minimum), the maximum (minimum) sensitivity will be set.

●When communication protocol of a
sub amplier is set to communication
emission halt “ ” the set-
ting of data bank loading / saving, or
copy setting cannot be carried out to
sub ampliers subsequent to the men-
tioned amplier.
●Make sure to mount closely like fol-
lows since interference prevention
function is conducted by optical com-
munication.
●When this product and other products (e.g. ber sensor ampliers, pressure
sensor controllers, etc.) are connected together in cascade, install those prod-
ucts so that they are in order of Group A, B, D and C as shown in the right g-
ure. This product is included in Group D.

INTERFERENCE PREVENTION FUNCTION
●This device incorporates an interference prevention function by setting differ-
ent emitting frequencies different from an interference prevention function by
optical communication.
●For Interference prevention function setting procedure, refer to “PRO MODE
OPERATION MANUAL.”
●Possible number of ampliers for interference prevention function is different
as shown in table below.

●In case putting in more ampliers than limit of interference prevention func-
tion, put the amplier protection seal to amplier which is adjacent of end of
an amplier that the interference function is valid or set OFF in communication
protocol setting of the end of amplier that the interference prevention function
is valid.
Example: Putting in 12 of this device and set STD of response time setting.
• Possible number of interference prevention is 4.
Put the amplier protection seals 4th and 5th ampliers and between 8th
and 9th ampliers or change the communication protocol setting of 4th and
8th to OFF since interference prevention works from 1st to 4th, from 5th to
8th and 9th to 12th.
●In case mounting more ampliers whose response time setting are different,
put protection seal between ampliers that have different response time setting
or set communication protocol setting of the upper amplier to OFF.
●For communication protocol setting procedure, refer to “PRO MODE OPERA-
TION MANUAL.”

CAUTIONS
●This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
● Make sure that the power supply is OFF while adding or removing the ampliers.
●Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is applied, or if an AC
power supply is directly connected, the product may get burnt or be damaged.
●Take care that short-circuit of the load or wrong wiring may burn or damage the product.
●Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines, or put
them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction.
● The specication may not be satised in a strong magnetic eld.
●Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
●If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame
ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
●In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.)
is used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal
of the equipment to an actual ground.
●The ultra long distance (U-LG, HYPR) mode is more likely to be affected by
extraneous noise since the sensitivity of that is higher than the other modes.
Make sure to check the environment before use.
●Do not use during the initial transient time (H-SP, FAST, STD: 0.5 sec., LONG,
U-LG, HYPR: 1 sec.) after the power supply is switched ON.
●Use same power supply when mounting adjacently.
●Extension up to total 100m is possible. When you extend the cable, be sure the power sup-
ply voltage is 12V DC or more and use cables which have 0.3mm2or more of conductor
cross-section area. However, in order to reduce noise, make the wiring as short as possible.
●Make sure that stress by forcible bend or pulling is not applied to the sensor
cable joint and ber cable.
●This product is suitable for indoor use only.
●Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
●Take care that the product does not come in contact with oil, grease, organic
solvents such as thinner, etc., strong acid or alkaline.
● This product cannot be used in an environment containing inammable or ex-
plosive gasses.
●Never disassemble or modify the product.
●This product adopts EEPROM. Settings cannot be done 100 thousand times
or more because of the EEPROM’s lifetime.
