CHAPTER 3 FUNCTIONS
If conguration of the system is changed (replace the SE4D series etc.), set the function
again.
3-1-1 Fixed Blanking Function
This is a function that the control output (OSSD 1 / 2) of SE4D series is not turned OFF, even if the
specied beam channel(s) is blocked OFF.
This is useful when an obstacle always blocks OFF the specic beam channel(s).
There are “Clear,” “Auto” and “Manual” for the setting method.
● Clear setting : The xed blanking function is to be invalid (factory setting).
● Auto setting : The currently blocked OFF beam channels are set as “effective beam channels”
in the xed blanking function. Be sure to set this function in the state where the
emitter emits light. Furthermore, this function cannot be set in the state where all
beam channels receive lights / are blocked.
● Manual setting : Each beam channel can be set to “effective / ineffective” in the fixed blanking
function respectively.
3-1 Functional Descriptions
When the xed blanking function is used, the control output (OSSD 1 / 2) of SE4D series
is not turned OFF even if the particular beam channels are blocked.
By using a protection structure etc., make the dangerous parts of the machine inaccessible
to personnel through the sensing area of the particular beam channels.

Receiver
When the effective beam channel(s) in the xed blanking function receive(s) the beam(s)
from the emitter, the control output (OSSD 1 / 2) of the SE4D series is xed to “OFF.” In
this case, check the mounting condition and turn the power ON again.
(Even if the power is turned ON again, the xed blanking function still stays effective.)
When the xed blanking function is used, the received light intensity indicator of SE4D
series is turned OFF regardless of the received light intensity.

Functional Descriptions
3-1-2 Floating Blanking Function
This function is set in each SE4D series.
If the number of the blocked beam channels is less than the set number of the beam channels, the
control output (OSSD 1 / 2) of SE4D series is not turned “OFF.”
This function is useful when an obstacle moves within the sensing area.
The factory setting of this function is “ineffective.”
The following items can be set.
Set number of beam channels
● Selectable among 0 (the oating blanking function is ineffective), 1, 2 or 3.
Ineffective setting of both end beam channel
● “Effective / ineffective” of the oating blanking function for the both end beam channels can be
selected.
• SET (Effective) : The floating blanking function becomes ineffective for the both end beam
channels. In case either end of the beam channel is blocked, the control
output (OSSD 1 / 2) of SE4D series is turned “OFF” regardless of the set
number of the beam channels.
• CLR (Ineffective) : The floating blanking function becomes effective for all beam channels
including both end beam channels.
Non-serial beam channel setting
• SET (Effective) : Even if the beam channels are blocked discontinuously in the set beam
channels, the control output (OSSD 1 / 2) of SE4D series is turned “ON.”
(Discontinuous mode)
• CLR (Ineffective) : When the beam channels are blocked discontinuously even in the set beam
channels, the control output (OSSD 1 / 2) of SE4D series is turned “OFF.”
(Continuous mode)
[For use in Europe (EU) (as EN 999)] (Also applicable to ISO 13855)
(For intrusion direction perpendicular to the sensing area)
<In case that the minimum sensing object is ø40mm or less>
● Equation S = K × T + C
S : Safety distance (mm)
Minimum required distance between the sensing area surface and the dangerous parts of
the machine.
K : Intrusion velocity of operator’s body or object (mm/sec.)
Taken as 2,000 (mm/sec.) for calculation
T : Response time of total equipment (sec.)
T = Tm + TSE4D
Tm: Maximum halting time of machine (sec.)
TSE4D: Response time of SE4D series (sec.)
C : Additional distance calculated from the size of the minimum sensing object of the SE4D
series (mm)
However, the value of C cannot be under 0.
C = 8 × (d - 14)
d: Diameter of the minimum sensing object (mm)
● When using the floating blanking function, the size of the minimum sensing object
becomes larger, and the safety distance is longer as well. For the calculation of the
safety distance, refer to the instruction manual enclosed with SE4D series.
● Before designing the system, refer to the relevant laws and standards of the region
where SE4D series is to be used and then install SE4D series.
● The minimum sensing object differs depending on the set number of the beam channels.

Notes: 1) When the xed blanking function, the oating blanking function or the muting function is used, the setting of ON / OFF
under unstable light-receiving condition does not work.
2) By the setting of ON / OFF in light receiving condition, light-receiving / light interrupted condition is output regardless of
the xed blanking function, the oating blanking function or the muting function.
<e.g.>
When the fixed blanking function is used, if an obstacle exists in the set area and other area is in light receiving
condition, the control output (OSSD 1 / 2) is in ON sate, however, the auxiliary output becomes OFF since the SE4D
series has been detecting the obstacle.
3) The state of the auxiliary output remains the same even if the SE4D series state changes.
If the oating blanking function is used, the incident light intensity indicator is turned OFF
when an obstacle exists in the sensing range regardless of the incident light intensity.
Do not use the auxiliary output for the purpose of stopping the machine in which the SE4D
series is installed. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury.

11
Functional Descriptions
3-1-4 Emission Intensity Control Function
This function reduces the emitting intensity.
It is useful for preventing interference from the emitter to the other devices.
Emission intensity control
• CLR (Ineffective) : Operating range is 0.3 to 9m for SE4D-H□ (12 to 64 beam channels), 0.3 to
7m for SE4D-H□ (72 to 96 beam channels) (factory setting).
• SET (Effective) : The operating range is reduced by approx. 50%.
3-1-5 Copy Function
This is a function to copy the setting of a SE4D series to other SE4D series.
This function is available only under the same system configuration (the number of sensors, the
number of beam channels, same model No.).
All functions that are settable with this device can be copied.
Note that the password is also copied with this function.
The following operations are available with this function.

3-1-6 Muting Setting Changing Function
The setting of the muting function can be changed.
Setting of the muting function on each beam channel
● Each beam channel can be set to “effective / ineffective” in the muting function respectively. (Note)
● The factory setting of this function is effective for all beam channels.
Note: If the beam channel set to ineffective in the muting function is blocked, the control output (OSSD 1 / 2) becomes “OFF” and
the muting function is canceled.
● There are two setting methods, “Auto” and “Manual” to set muting beam channel.
• Auto setting : The beam channel which is currently blocked is set as the “effective” beam
channel. When all beam channels are in light receiving condition, the setting is
not accepted. Furthermore, in the state where emission is halted or all beam
channels are blocked, the all beam channels become “effective” in the muting
function.
• Manual setting : Each beam channel can be set to “effective / ineffective” in the muting function.
ON: The muting function is effective
OFF: The muting function is ineffective

12
Functional Descriptions
Muting input conditions
● The order for inputting the muting input A and B, which the muting function activates, can be set.
A = b: Effective even either comes rst
A b: Effective only when the input A comes rst
b A: Effective only when the input B comes rst
Note: The setting is possible for each channel.
Setting of the muting lamp diagnosis function
● The muting lamp diagnosis function can be set to “effective / ineffective.” (Note)
The factory setting of this function is effective.
ON : The muting lamp diagnosis function is effective.
OFF : The muting lamp diagnosis function is ineffective.
Note: If the muting lamp diagnosis function is set to ineffective, the muting function is maintained even if the lamp blew.
Muting sensor output operation setting
● Output operation of the muting sensor can be selected.
The factory setting is NONO (Normally Open, Normally Open).
• NONO (Normally Open, Normally Open)

ON with object non-approaching status and ON with object non-contacted status)
3-1-7 Interlock Setting Changing Function
One condition can be selected from the following three interlock conditions. It can be set to invalid,
too. (Mode 3)
• Start / Restart interlock (Mode 0)
The SE4D series goes into interlock condition after the power is ON and when it is in the light
receiving condition.
The factory setting is Start / Restart interlock.
• Start interlock (Mode 1)
The SE4D series goes into interlock condition only when the power is ON. Once the SE4D
series is reset, it does not go into interlock condition again.
• Restart interlock (Mode 2)
The SE4D series does not go into the interlock condition when the power is ON. The SE4D
series goes into interlock condition only when the SE4D series receives the light, after the
power is ON, the control output (OSSD 1 / 2) is turned into ON once and then the SE4D series
is blocked.
3-1-8 External Device Monitor Setting Changing Function
The setting of the external device monitor can be changed.

<Setting of the auxiliary output>
Mode 0: Negative logic of the control output (OSSD 1 / 2) (factory setting)
Mode 1: Positive logic of the control output (OSSD 1 / 2)
Mode 2: ON during emission, OFF when emission is not done.
Mode 3: OFF during emission, ON when emission is not done.
Mode 4: OFF when the received light level is unstable (Note 1)
Mode 5: ON when the received light level is unstable (Note 1)
Mode 6: ON during muting
Mode 7: OFF during muting
Mode 8: ON in the light receiving condition
Mode 9: OFF in the light receiving condition
Notes: 1) This cannot be used when the xed blanking function, the oating blanking function or the muting setting changing
function is used.
2) When using with SE4D series only, if the external device monitor function is not used, set the monitor setting to
ineffective in “3-2-8 External Device Monitor Setting Changing Function.”
