Commercially-available connectors are used so that lead time and spare part numbers
can both be reduced
The connectors used are commercially-available connectors,
so that processing costs and lead time required for carrying
out processing after purchase of the sensors can be greatly
reduced. The same connection parts as the DP-100 series
of digital pressure sensors and the PM-64 series of micro
photoelectric sensors can be used.
Commercially-available press-fit connectors are used, so that
the processing costs for connection cables can be greatly reduced.

Improved stability over both long terms
Very slim at only 9 mm 0.354 in. This is much thinner
than existing fiber sensors. Even if the difference is small
when only using one unit, when using many units this
makes a very large difference.
Utilizes the standard Panasonic Electric Works SUNX
digital fiber sensor element “Four-chemical emitting

Even when performing the same sensing operation,
there may be variances in the digital values of the fiber

Teaching is possible even without work.
Limit teaching function
This carries out teaching and sets threshold values only
when no object is present (when the incident light amount
is stable). This is useful when sensing objects if there
are other objects in the background and when sensing
minute objects. Teaching can also be carried out using
external input.

Current value
The amount of light
received when there
is no object
If the light receiving level becomes saturated when
sensing over short distances or when sensing
transparent objects or minute objects, the light emitting
amount can be reduced so that stable sensing can be
provided without needing to change the response time.
On previous models, there was only one light reduction
level, but now there are 3 levels plus an automatic mode.
As before, even when the fiber and distance settings
needed to be altered for proper sensing, this function can
allow simple settings alterations.

The emission frequencies can be set separately for
each unit in order to avoid interference. The emitted light
flashes while setting is in progress, so that you can see
at a glance which fiber sensor is currently being set.
There is no need to place the amplifiers close together
like there was before, and so the amplifiers can be set
up apart from each other.
* When the emission frequencies are changed, the response times will
also change.

and human error
By attaching a fiber sensor to each device that is to
be the fiber sensor master, the master sensor settings
can be copied along with data transmissions. By
synchronizing the settings on all the devices, trouble from
setting errors can be prevented, meaning fewer changes
to the instruction manuals even when equipment design
is changed.

Notes: 1) Note that the sensing range of the free-cut type fiber may be reduced by 20 % max. depending upon how the fiber is cut.
The sensing range of FR-WKZ11 is specified for the RF-13. The sensing range of FR-KZ21, FR-KZ21E is specified for the attached reflector RF-003.
The sensing range of FR-KV1 is specified for the attached reflector.
Refer to p.166 for sensing range when FR-WKZ11 is used in combination with a reflector (optional).
2) The sensing range of retroreflective type is the possible setting range for the attached reflector. The fiber can detect an object less than setting range for
the reflector. However, note that if there are any white or highly-reflective surfaces near the fiber head, reflected incident light may affect the fiber head.
If this occurs, adjust the threshold value of the amplifier unit before use.

Notes: 1) Be careful when installing the thru-beam type fiber equipped with the expansion lens, as the beam envelope becomes narrow and alignment is difficult.
Especially when installing a fiber with many cores (sharp bending fibers and heat-resistant glass fiber), please be sure to use it only after you have
adjusted it sufficiently.
2) T
he fiber cable length practically limits the sensing range to 3,500 mm 137.795 in long (FT-H20W-M1, FT-P81X and FT-H20-M1: 1,600 mm 62.992 in).
3) T
he fiber cable length for the FT-H30-M1V-S is 1 m 3.281 ft. The sensing ranges in FX-102□ (long sensing range type) take into account the length of
the FT-J8 atmospheric side fiber.

• Never use this product as a sensing device
for personnel protection.
• In case of using sensing devices for
personnel protection, use products which
meet laws and standards, such as OSHA,
ANSI or IEC etc., for personnel protection
applicable in each region or country.
Using in combination with the FX-300 / FX-410 series
• The FX-100 series does not use the horizontal
connectors that are used with the FX-300 / FX-410
series. Please note that horizontal connection cannot be
performed using a connector attached cable. In addition,
the optical communication function is not equipped on
the FX-100 series, so it is unable to perform interference
prevention for use with the FX-300 / FX-410 series.
If using the FX-100 series together with the FX-300 /
FX-410 series side-by-side, please set the same models
together in groups.

• Make sure that the power supply is OFF while adding or
removing the amplifiers.
• Note that if a voltage exceeding the reted range is applied,
or if an AC power supply is directly connected, the product
may get burnt or damaged.
• Note 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.
• 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.
• Make sure to use the quick-connection cable (optional) for
the connection of the controller.

• Be sure to use the setting copy function between the
identical models (Between FX-101□ models or FX-102□
models).
This function cannot be used between different
models.
• Only one sensor can be connected on slave side with a
master side sensor for the setting copy function.
• Threshold value, output operation setting, timer
operation setting, timer setting, light-emitting amount
setting, shift setting, external input setting, threshold
value margin setting, ECO setting, digital display
inversion setting, and threshold value margin setting
can be copied.
Threshold value set at the limit teaching,
full-auto teaching or 2-point teaching by
external input is stored. When selecting
Auto in the emission amount setting
mode, the set emission amount level is
also stored.
When incident light intensity exceeds threshold
value, this mode can change the threshold value
with each set cycle depending on variations of the
incident light intensity. The follow-up shift amount
is same as the one set in the shift setting mode.
However, the threshold value is not stored.
Variations can be reduced by correcting the
present incident light intensity in each amplifier
to a target value. Target value to offset incident
light intensity can be selected from 0 to 2,000
by 100 unit each. For example, if the target
value is set to 2,000 when the incident light
intensity is 1,500, the incident light intensity
becomes 2,000.
It is possible to light up / turn off the digital
display. When ECO setting mode is ON, the
display turns off in 20 sec. approx. in RUN
mode. To light up the display again, press any
key for 2 sec. or more.
1 Set the setting copy mode of the master side amplifier to
“Copy sending ON”, and press the MODE key so that
“
” is shown on the digital display and the
sensor is in copy ready state. For the setting method,
refer to “Operation guide”.
