Constant advances achieving significant
improvement of sensing performance
Stable sensing over long and short periods
FX-301 FX-301-HS FX-305
In addition to a “four-chemical emitting element” which
suppresses changes in the light emitting element over
time so that a stable level of light emission
can
be
•
•
maintained
over
long
periods,
a
“APC
(Auto
Power
•
Control) circuit” has also been adopted afresh. The light
emitting amount can be controlled in minute degrees
so that even changes occurring over very short periods
can be handled, allowing stable sensing performance by
suppressing deviations in light emitting amounts caused
by changes in the ambient environment that could not
previously be suppressed.
Even greater sensing range
All models
Adoption of a “double coupling lens” that increases
emission efficiency to its maximum limits and greatly
increases sensing range. Sensing ranges with small
diameter fibers and ultra-small diameter fibers, which
have become very popular due to the miniaturization of
chip components, have been increased by 50 % over
previous values achieved with other amplifiers.

Detecting the presence or absence of labels
Detecting the presence or absence of ICs on a tray
The light-emitting amount selection
function can even stabilize detection

You can set upper and lower limits for
the threshold values using the window
comparator mode and turn ON / OFF
the incident light intensity
within that limit.
Detecting the passage of small objects
The differential sensing mode will only
detect rapid changes in the amount of

Light-emitting amount selection
If the light receiving level becomes saturated during close-range sensing or when sensing
transparent or minute objects, you can adjust the light emitting amount of the sensor to
stabilize sensing without needing to change the response time. Sensing that previously
required the response time or fibers to be changed can now be set much more easily using
this function.

via external signals, such as the PLC, touch panel, and
push buttons.
The communication unit enables inputs to the digital fiber
sensors (such as teaching and data bank switching) to
be carried out via a PLC or a personal computer, and
also allows confirming of the incident light intensity an
output status for the fiber sensors. This greatly improves
workability during equipment starting up and maintenance.

3) The sensing range 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) Note that the sensing range of the free-cut type fiber may be reduced by 20 % max. depending upon how the fiber is cut.
2) Because infrared types are easily affected by humidity, please ask assistance when using them in a humid environment or in an environment with
varying humidity.

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.
2) The sensing range 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 sure to use it only after you have adjusted it sufficiently when installing the thru-beam type fiber equipped with the expansion lens, as the
beam envelope becomes narrow and alignment is difficult.
2) The sensing ranges are the values for red LED type amplifier. Please contact our office for details on sensing ranges for other types of amplifiers.
3) The fiber cable length practically limits the sensing range.
4) The fiber cable length for the FT-H30-M1V-S is 1 m 3.281 ft. The sensing ranges in U-LG and LONG modes take into account the length of the FT-J8
atmospheric side fiber.
5) Refer to p.15, p18, p.33 and p.35 for the ambient temperatures of fibers to be used in combination.

How to remove the amplifier
Push the amplifier forward.
Lift up the front part of the amplifier
to remove it.
Note: Take care that if the front part is lifted without pushing the
amplifier forward, the hook on the rear portion of the mounting
section is likely to break.

Notes: 1) N
ote that if the fiber is not fully inserted, the sensing distance will
decrease. Also note that the flexible fiber may bend during insertion.
2) I n case of coaxial reflective type fibers (FD-G4, FD-FM2, etc.),
mount the central fiber (single-core) to the emitter part and the
peripheral fiber (multi-core) to the receiver. Note that sensing
precision will deteriorate when done in reverse.
Connection
• Make sure that the power supply is off while connecting
or disconnecting the quick-connection cable.
Connection method

• Make sure that the power supply is off while adding or
removing the amplifiers.
• Make sure to check the allowable ambient temperature,
as it depends on the number of amplifiers connected in
cascade.
• In case two, or more, amplifiers are connected in
cascade, make sure to mount them on a DIN rail.
• When the amplifiers move on the DIN rail depending on
the attaching condition or the amplifiers are mounted
close to each other in cascade, fit them between the
optional end plates (MS-DIN-E) mounted at the two
ends.
• Up to maximum 15 amplifiers can be added (total 16
amplifiers connected in cascade.)
• When connecting more than two amplifiers in cascade,
use the sub cable (CN-71-C□ / CN-72-C□) as the
quick-connection cable for the second amplifier
onwards.
• When connecting amplifiers not close to each other
in parallel, be sure to mount the optional end plate
(MS-DIN-E) at both sides of each amplifier or affix the
communication window seal of the accessory amplifier
protection seal (FX-MB1) to the communication
windows.
• The settings other than the interference prevention
function cannot be transmitted between FX-301(P)
FX-301B/G/H(P), FX-305(P). Therefore, in case both
models of amplifiers are mounted in cascade, be sure
to mount identical models together. However, the
interference prevention function is not incorporated in
the FX-301(P)-HS. Take care when the sensors are
mounted in cascade.
• If the FX-301(P) updated version unit or the FX-305(P)
is mounted with the FX-301(P) previous version unit or
the FX-301B/G/H(P) in cascade, place the FX-301(P)
updated version units and the FX-305(P) units to
the right side (seen from the connector side) of the
previous version units. For details, refer to “Cautions
on sensor connection in cascade”.
For a difference between the updated version unit
and the previous version unit, refer to “A difference
between the updated version unit and the previous
version unit”.
• The communication function of this product and that of
the FX-301(P)-F / F7 is different. If these models are
mounted in cascade, affix the accessory fiber amplifier
protection seal (FX-MB1) included in the FX-301(P)
and FX-305(P) to the communication windows of the
amplifiers.

Wiring
• 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 product may get burnt or damaged.
• 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.
• Take care that short circuit of the load 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.
• Make sure to use an isolation transformer for the DC
power supply. If an autotransformer (single winding
transformer) is used, this product or the power supply
may get damaged.
• Make sure to use the optional quick-connection cable for
the connection of the amplifier. Extension up to total 100
m 328.084 ft is possible with 0.3 mm2, or more, cable.
(5-8 unit expansion: 50 m 164.042 ft, 9-16 unit
expansion: 20 m 65.617 ft) However, in order to reduce
noise, make the wiring as short as possible.
• Note that the residual voltage will increase when the
cable is extended.
• If jog switch and MODE key are pressed for more than
2 sec. at the same time in ‘RUN’ mode condition, the
key operations are locked, and only the threshold value
confirmation function or the adjust function (valid only
when the adjust lock function is canceled) is valid.
To cancel the lock function, press both the keys for more
than 2 sec. once again.
Note: 3 seconds or more for FX-301B/G/H(P).

• When the emission halt of the light emitting amount
selection function is set from “OFF” to “ON”, the output
may be unstable. Do not use the output control for 0.5
sec. after starting emission.
• Do not use during the initial transient time (0.5 sec.) after
the power supply is switched on.
• Take care that the sensor is not directly exposed to
fluorescent lamp from a rapid-starter lamp, a high
frequency lighting device or sunlight etc. , as it may affect
the sensing performance.
• Do not use this sensor in places having excessive vapor,
dust, etc., or where it may come in contact with corrosive
gas.
• Take care that the product does not come in direct
contact with water, oil, grease, or organic solvents, such

Previous version unit: Sensitivity surplus is indicated by the number
of blinks of the stability indicator.
After change
1. Response times added
An ultra high-speed mode (H-SP) has been added to
the existing 4 response time modes [high-speed (FAST),
reduced intensity (S-D), standard (STD) and long range
(LONG)].
This is changed using “

*T
he default setting for the timer period is 10 ms, and the direct code for
10 ms is “4”, so this has been changed.
Internal circuit changes
1. Addition of an APC circuit
A four-chemical emitting element which provides stable
sensing over• long• periods• has been added, as well
as an APC (Auto Power Control) circuit that improves
stability during short periods.

4 levels (5 levels when emission halt is included).
4. Backup, copy lock and key lock functions added
Backup: This selects whether or not threshold values
set by teaching are written to (stored in) an
EEPROM.
Copy lock: This selects whether copy function and data
bank function communication are possible or
not.
Key lock: This disables input using switches to prevent
accidental changing of settings.
