Long sensing range of 500 mm 19.685 in
[HL-T1005A(F), HL-T1010A(F)] and 2 m 6.562 ft
[HL-T1001A(F)] are available.
High-precision judgment even from
minute differences in light intensity
The sensors are sensitive Distinguishing opacity of glass
to minute differences in
light intensity, so that
they can judge even
the opacity of glass.
In addition, the amount
of light received can be
displayed as a percentage
to allow you to determine
permeation rates.

FUNCTIONS
Fully equipped with convenient functionality
Analog output is switchable between current / voltage
A wide range of convenient features has been incorporated
into the unit’s compact body: standard received light setting
/ auto scaling setting / measurement processing (various
timer and hold functions) / differentiation / monitor focus
function. These features make the unit useful for a wide
variety of applications.
The analog output can be switched between either of
two different outputs; current (4 to 20 mA) / voltage
(±4 V). With the monitor focus function, the output can
be adjusted over the range from –5 V to +5 V, or from
0 V to +5 V, facilitating connectivity with a variety of
output devices.
Positioning
teaching
The actual value measured at the time when teaching
is performed is utilized as the threshold value.
Best suited for high-precision positioning.
2-point
teaching
In this teaching method, an intermediate level between
the first and the second teaching levels is utilized as
the threshold value. Minute differences, such as
changes as small as the thickness of a sheet of paper
between the sensing objects, can be detected when
this teaching method is utilized.
Automatic
teaching
With this teaching method, a series of periodic arbitrarily
measurements are taken automatically and an
intermediate value, between the maximum and minimum
values obtained by this measurement, is utilized as the
threshold value. The threshold value is therefore set in
relation to the sensing object. Best suited for
applications in which teaching must be performed
without stopping the current flow of operations.

By displaying the resolution, the marginal increment can
be easily determined for the threshold value setting,
helping to accurately determine whether sensing can be
performed.

enabling a variety of applications to be accommodated
for many different types of production sites.
Monitor focus function
The linear output is fully adjustable over the following
range (current: 4 to 20 mA / voltage: ±4 V). The usage
of the monitor focus function together with selectable
current / voltage switching for the linear output allows for
compatibility with a variety of output devices.

MAINTENANCE
Self-check for laser diode deterioration
The intelligent controller performs self-checking for laser
diode deterioration. If the controller detects significant
deterioration (end of diode life), an error will be displayed
on the main digital display panel. This function enables
users to prepare in advance for potential laser diode
malfunctions.

The English warning label based
on FDA regulations is pasted on
the FDA conformed type.
Safety standards for laser beam products
• A laser beam can harm human being’s eyes, skin, etc.,
because of its high energy density. IEC has classified
laser products according to the degree of hazard and the
stipulated safety requirements.
The HL-T1 series is classified as Class 1 laser.
Classification by IEC 60825-1
Classification
Class 1
Description
Lasers that are safe under reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation,
including the use of optical instruments for intrabeam viewing.
Safe use of laser products
• For the purpose of preventing users from suffering
injuries by laser products, IEC 60825-1 “Safety of laser
products”. Kindly check the standards before use.
Functions
Function
Details
Zero reset
function
The following tasks can be done by executing zero
reset.
• The display value can be set at “0”.
• The linear output when the display reads “0” is
made the center output value of the 2 points set
by monitor focus. (In the default state, the current
output is 12 mA and the voltage output is 0 V.)
Auto scaling
function
The auto scaling function selects whether to display
the laser beam reception amount in the main-digital
display in “mm” units or in “%” units, and determines
whether the amount of laser beam received or the
amount of laser beam interrupted is displayed. With
the set standard laser beam reception amount as the
reference value, the current laser beam reception
amount (laser beam interrupted amount) is scaled
automatically and is displayed as well as being
output.
Standard
received light
setting
This function registers and stores the current laser
beam reception amount in memory as the standard
laser beam reception amount. The laser beam
reception amount during full laser beam entry
becomes the 100 % laser beam reception amount’s
full scale (F.S.). If this function is used, the display
and the linear output are set on the full scale (F.S.)
automatically. It can also be used to correct the laser
beam reception amount when there is a change in
the laser beam reception amount due to dirt, etc. on
the front glass.
Scaling function
The scaling function is a function that changes the
display value to the desired amount with respect to
the setting value. At the desired distance, the display
value can be input and changed.
Hysteresis width
setting function
This function sets the hysteresis to the desired value.
Monitor focus
function
With this function, the linear output range and
inclination, etc. with respect to the display value can
be specified. Setting is done by determining the 2
output values with respect to the desired display
values.
Differential
function
This function makes the amount of change in the
measured value an output value. Use this function
when measuring if you are paying attention to
changes in measured values, as when counting the
number of workpieces, etc.
Display reverse
function
The digital display’s direction can be selected. The
forward direction or the reverse direction to match
the direction of installation on the equipment can be
selected.
ECO display
function
This function makes the display dark and saves
electric power.
Display digits
limitation function
This determines the number of display digits in the
main-digital and sub-digital displays. If the number of
digits is limited, the digits are turned off beginning
with the lowest order digit.
Zero reset memory
function
This selects whether or not to save the zero reset
level in memory when the power is turned OFF. If
you desire to reproduce the zero reset level from the
previous operating session when you turn the power
ON again, then enable this function. If this function is
enabled, the zero reset level data are written into the
EEPROM each time.
Key lock
function
The controller’s key input can be disabled. Once the
key input is disabled, the controller will not accept
any key inputs until the key lock is released. Use this
function to avoid changing the setting by mistake.
Connection
• This product is made to satisfy the specifications when the
sensor head is combined with the controller. In any other
combination, not only may it not satisfy the specifications,
but could be the cause of breakdown. So by all means,
use it so that there is a combination of the sensor head
and the controller.

Others
• This product outputs the judgment of the laser light analog
quantity. Since there is variation in the light intensity between
the center and the edges of the detection area, and the
emitter side and the receiver side, the “display value” does
not equal “the actual dimensions”, so caution is necessary.
Use the displayed dimensional value as a criterion.
• If the object being measured has a mirror surface or is
a transparent body, it may be impossible to measure it
accurately, so please exercise caution.
• Absolutely do not attempt to disassemble this product.
