2 selectable sensing modes for any application
Mark mode
Color mode
The sensor automatically selects the most suitable
light source color from the 3 R GB LEDs offering
the largest contrast between the mark and base
(non-mark area). The sensor effectuates ultra quick
mark detection with a 45 !s response time.
The sensor utilizes all 3 R G B LEDs to convert the
reflective light into an RG B ratio. Only the color of
the mark indicated by teaching is accurately
detected.

Various functions to ensure the best mark sensing.
Sensing modes can be selected depending on the application.
Has a built-in ‘Mark mode’ that realizes a ultra quick 45 ¨s response time as well as a ‘Color mode’
offering the best mark color discrimination capacity. Use either of these modes as per the application.
Mark mode
This sensing mode automatically selects a single
color from the 3 R • G • B LEDs to realize an ultra
quick 45 !s response time. The automatic optimal
LED selection function automatically selects the LED
that is most suitable for the sensing. This function is
perfect for ultra quick sensing.

Reflective light
Reflective light
With mark sensing, the larger the received light
variation is, the easier sensing becomes. Also, the
higher the received light ratio (contrast) is, the
more sensing is stabilized. The example on the
right deals with reflected light on packing film.
Great figures are indicated for the blue LED’s light
amount ratio and, for even more stable sensing, the
blue LED effectuates this mark sensing.
The LX-100 series sensors automatically selects
the optimal LED that will ensure the most stable
sensing results.
Reflective light
The 3 colors of the R•G • B LEDs are optimally selected according to the color combination. With the LX-100’s Mark mode, the built-in
‘Automatic optimal LED selection function’ automatically selects the LED for the largest contrast (S / N ratio) between the mark and base (nonmark area) to ensure optimal sensing. For more stable detection, the sensor makes selection according to the contrast and not according to
the reflected light variation between the mark and base (non-mark area).

Color mode
All 3 R • G • B LEDs light up and high precision mark color
discrimination occurs using the R • G • B reflective light
ratio. This function enables effective detection of films with
patterns around the area of the mark.
The color around letters is
detected as a mark.
Predetermined colors are
detected as marks.
High precision mark color discrimination
The color mode on the LX-100 series utilizes all 3 R• G • B LEDs to determine the R• G • B ratio of the mark color. The built-in 12-bit A/D
converter enables high precision 1/4000-resolution judgments. The figure below is a graphic description of this process.

Timer function
The key lock function enables input operation control that prevents
mistaken changes in the sensor settings. Also possible are minute
settings such as ‘RUN adjust’, allowing threshold value adjustment
only, and ‘RUN teaching’, allowing teaching operation only.
If setting the sensor to ‘RUN adjust’ or ‘RUN teaching’, adjustments
and teaching is possible with the sensor left in RUN mode.
The built-in timer function cancels signals not needed for mark
sensing and lengthens the width of signals to control devices.
• ON-delay and OFF-delay timers built-in
• 9 timer levels available: 1 ms / 2 ms / 5 ms / 10 ms / 20 ms / 50 ms / 100 ms /
200 ms / 500 ms
mThe key lock function is enabled by pressing the MODE key and OFF key
simultaneously for at least 2 sec. after having effectuated settings. Press the
MODE and OFF keys again simultaneously for at least 2 sec. to release.
Press at least 2 sec.
● When in RUN mode, press the MODE

Notes: 1) In Mark mode, L-ON / D-ON is automatically set in the sensor. For example, with 2-level teaching, press the ON key at the targeted mark and press the
OFF key at the base (non-mark area). When doing so, the operator does not have to consider L-ON / D-ON.
2) Sensing accuracy can be set to either FINE (standard) or COARSE.
3) The percent display is only enabled in mark mode.
4) ECO mode is a function that reduces power consumption by turning off the digital display in the event no button operations are made for a
predetermined time (approx. 10 sec. or more) in RUN mode. Press any button to turn the digital display on again.
5) The turn mode is a function that reverses the digital display making it easily viewed in the event the sensor installation renders the display up-side-down.

injury or property damage from dangerous parts of
machinery. It is a normal object detection sensor.
Mounting
• Care must be taken regarding the sensor mounting direction with
respect to the object’s direction of movement.
Do not make the sensor
detect an object in this
direction because it
may cause unstable
operation.

Sensing glossy object
• Objects with a glossy surface have a large amount of specular
reflection particles that may destabilize sensing. In such a case,
by slightly tilting the sensor’s beam axis, this specular reflection
can be reduced rendering sensing more stable.
• If the surface of the sensing object has a shine,
mount the sensor inclining approx. 10 to 15
degrees against the sensing object.

CX-481 is the amplifier built-in photoelectric sensor
(CX-400 series) for transparent objects sensing. It
monitors the residual amounts of packing film and
announces the periodic replacements of film rolls.
These sensors are retroreflective types so they
can be installed with ease.

EX-10 series amplifier built-in ultra-slim
photoelectric sensor (3.5 mm 0.138 in
thick) that monitors packing film deflection
and can be installed in narrow spaces.
Detects meandering sheets using wide
beam fiber. The fiber amplifier is a 2-output
type that can detect meandering in both
the left and right directions.
DIGITAL MARK SENSOR LX-100 SERIES
Tube positioning
Detects printed marks to align tubes.
Can be used for various kinds of packing film
• Paper bags
D: Air pressure detection
Digital pressure sensor
DP2 / DP4 series
Detects air pressure and displays
it digitally. Its semi-conductor
transducer
ensures
high
precision and long life. Optimal for
controlling the pressure of
pneumatic machinery.
