Threshold tracking function saves
maintenance time
This function seeks
changes in the light emitting
amount resulting from
changes in the environment
over long periods (such
as dust levels), so that
the incident light intensity
can be checked at desired
intervals and the threshold
values can be reset
automatically. This helps to
reduce the man-hours for
maintenance.

more stable sensing.
The sensor judges any object
outside the range of incident light
intensity established by two set
threshold values.

By combining two outputs, wide
array of control is possible, allowing
you to detect meandering objects,
for example.
Only rapid changes in light received
are detected, which enable the edge of

Emission halt function
If you do not want to
place a laser spot in
the visual range of
the image processor,
you can stop the laser
radiation using the
emission halt signal
from the external input.
Cable type allows external input
The LS-401-C2 cable-type amplier is equipped with an
external input wire (5-core). It is ideal to use the laser
sensor at places where external teaching or laser light
emission halting is to be carried out, or at the places
where the laser sensor is to be used separately.
Interference prevention function
The automatic interference
prevention function prevents
against interference among
up to 4 sensors.
Setting conditions viewed at a glance (D-CODE)
The amplier setting is shown as an 8-digit code. Handy
for remote indications and follow-ups.
Accurately sense the minutest variations
(M.G.S. function)
When sensing at close range or when the target objects
are transparent or minute, adjust the sensor receiving
sensitivity to one of 3 levels (U-LG mode: 4 levels) for
the optimal setting. In addition, changing the receiving
sensitivity will not effect the response time.

4) The sensing range is the value for the RF-330 [RF-230 for the LS-H92(F)] reector. In addition, the sensing range is the possible setting range for the
reector. The sensor can detect an object less than 0.1 m 0.328 ft [LS-H92(F): 0.2 m 0.656 ft] away. Note that if there are white papers or specular
objects near the sensor head, reected light from these objects may be received. In such cases, use the M.G.S. function of the amplier unit to change
the response time or incident light sensitivity.

•The lens attachment for line reective type LS-MR1 mounted in
the long sensing range line reective type LS-H22□ is removable.
When LS-H22□ is used without LS-MR1, it will provide the
equivalent performance to the long sensing range spot reective
type LS-H21□. In addition, the optional LS-MR1 can be attached
to LS-H21□ to obtain the performance equivalent to LS-H22□.
•Keep the lens clean of dust, dirt, water, oil, grease, etc.
•Do not apply any excessive force to LS-MR1.
Such force may cause damage.

•Do not use during the initial transient time (0.5 sec. approx.)
after the power supply is switched on.
•Because the sensitivity is higher in U-LG mode than in other
modes, it can be more easily affected by extraneous noise.
Check the operating environment before use.
•These sensors are only for indoor use.
•Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
•Take care that the product does not come in direct contact
with water, oil, grease, or organic solvents, such as, thinner,
etc.
•This sensor cannot be used in an environment containing
inammable or explosive gasses.
•Never disassemble or modify the sensor.
•Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring.
•Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
•Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is
applied, or if an AC power supply is directly connected, the
sensor may get burnt or damaged.
•Take care that short-circuit or wrong wiring of the load may
burn or damage the sensor.
•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.
•Ensure that an isolation transformer is utilized for the DC
power supply. If an auto transformer is utilized, the main
amplier or power supply may be damaged.
•Make sure to use the optional quick-connection cable for
the connection of the amplier [connector type LS-401(P) /
LS-403]. Extension up to total 100 m 328.084 ft is possible
