DF-G1 Expert™ Dual Display Fiber Amplifier
1.2 Overview
The DF-G1 is an easy-to-use, DIN-rail-mountable fiber optic device. It provides high-performance sensing in low-contrast
applications.
The sensor’s compact housing has dual digital displays (Red/Green) and a bright output LED for easy programming and
status monitoring during operation. The sensor features a single discrete output, either NPN or PNP, by model.
The DF-G1 features increased temperature compensation compared with previous fiber optic sensors. An accessory clamp
is available to secure a bank of connected sensors together on a DIN rail (see Accessories on page 31).

1.3 Top Panel Interface
Opening the dust cover provides access to the top panel interface. The top panel interface consists of the RUN/PRG/ADJ
mode switch, LO/DO switch, +/SET/- rocker button, dual red/green digital displays, and output LED.
RUN/PRG/ADJ Mode Switch
The RUN/PRG/ADJ mode switch puts the sensor in RUN, PRG (Program), or ADJ (Adjust) mode. RUN mode
allows the sensor to operate normally and prevents unintentional programming changes via the +/SET/button. PRG mode allows the sensor to be programmed through the display driven programming menu (see
Program Mode on page 8 ). ADJ mode allows the user to perform Expert TEACH/SET methods and
Manual Adjust (see Adjust Mode on page 12 ).
LO/DO Switch
The LO/DO switch is used to select Light Operate or Dark Operate mode. In Light Operate mode, the output
is ON when the sensing condition is above the threshold (for Window SET, the output is ON when the
sensing condition is inside the window). In Dark Operate mode, the output is ON when the sensing condition
is below the threshold (for Window SET, the output is ON when the sensing condition is outside the window).
+/SET/- Rocker Button
The +/SET/- rocker button is a 3-way button. The +/- positions are engaged by rocking the button left/right.
The SET position is engaged by clicking down the button while the rocker is in the middle position. All three
button positions are used during PRG mode to navigate the display driven programming menu. During ADJ
mode, SET is used to perform TEACH/SET methods and +/- are used to manually adjust the threshold(s). The
rocker button is disabled during RUN mode, except when using Window SET, see Window SET on page
16.
Red/Green Digital Displays
During RUN and ADJ mode, the Red display shows the signal level and the Green display shows the
threshold. During PRG mode, both displays are used to navigate the display driven programming menu.
Output LED
The output LED provides a visible indication when the output is activated.

DF-G1 Expert™ Dual Display Fiber Amplifier
3.2.1 TEACH Selection
The DF-G1 can be programmed for one of the following TEACH/SET methods:
• Two-Point TEACH
• Dynamic TEACH
• Window SET
• Light SET
• Dark SET
• Calibration SET
Note: A TEACH Selection must be selected by programming before TEACH/SET methods can be used.
3.2.2 Response Speed
The DF-G1 can be programmed for one of the following Response Speeds:
Response Speed
Display Range
Crosstalk Avoidance Algorithm
200 µs (High Speed)
0 - 4000
Disabled
500 µs (Standard)
0 - 4000
Enabled
2000 µs (Long Range)
0 - 9999
Enabled
5000 µs (Extra Long Range)
0 - 9999
Enabled
3.2.3 Offset Percent
The Offset Percent is used during the Window, Light, or Dark SET methods. The threshold(s) are positioned a
programmable % offset from the taught condition.
The allowable range depends upon the Response Speed Mode, as shown below:
Response Speed
MIN %
MAX %
200 µs (High Speed)
10
999
500 µs (Standard)
10
999
2000 µs (Long Range)
2
999
5000 µs (Extra Long Range)
2
999
The offset percent can also be programmed to Minimum Offset. This allows the DF-G1 to set the
threshold(s) as close as possible to the presented condition, but still provide for reliable sensing.
Note: Offset Percent MUST be programmed to Minimum Offset for Dark SET to accept conditions of no
signal (0 counts).
3.2.4 Auto Thresholds
Auto Thresholds can be programmed to be ON/OFF. The Auto Thresholds algorithm continuously tracks slow changes in
the taught condition(s), and optimizes the threshold(s) to provide for reliable sensing. For Two-Point and Dynamic TEACH,
the algorithm optimizes the threshold to be centered between the light and dark conditions. For Window, Light, and Dark
SET, the algorithm optimizes the threshold(s) to maintain the programmed Offset Percent from the taught condition.
• After programming Auto Thresholds to ON, it is highly recommended to re-perform the TEACH/SET method
• Manual Adjustments are disabled when Auto Thresholds are ON
• Auto Thresholds are automatically disabled in Calibration SET (see Calibration SET on page 21)
• Severe contamination/changes in the taught condition can prevent the Auto Thresholds algorithm from optimizing
the threshold(s). If this occurs, the DF-G1 enters a Threshold Alert or Threshold Error state. See Troubleshooting on
page 22 for more explanation.

3.2.5 Delays/Timers
ON/OFF Delays and ON/OFF One-Shot
timers can be programmed between 1 9999 ms (a value of 0 disables the delay/
timer). Figure 3 on page 11 defines how
the delays/timers affect the output behavior.
Some combinations of delays/timers are not
allowed. The DF-G1 programming menu
automatically disables invalid combinations
of delays/timers. The following table shows
the allowable combinations of delays/timers:

3.2.6 Display Readout
The readout of the digital displays can be programmed for the following options:
• Signal/Threshold readout - Numeric (1234) or % (123P)
• ECO mode - Enabled or Disabled (ECO mode dims the displays to reduce current consumption)
• Display Orientation - Normal (
) or Flipped (
)
3.2.7 Gain Selection
The DF-G1 can operate in Auto Gain mode or the Gain can be fixed to be in Gain 1..8. In Auto Gain, the DF-G1 optimizes
the gain during a TEACH/SET method for the presented condition(s). While viewing the fixed gains in the Gain Selection
choice list, the DF-G1 will automatically switch to the selected gain and display the measured signal on the Red display.
This allows for easy and quick evaluation of the fixed gain mode.
3.2.8 Factory Defaults
The Factory Defaults menu allows the DF-G1 to be easily restored back to original factory default settings (see Factory
Default Settings in Specifications).
3.3 Remote Input (not available on IO-Link models)
The remote input may be used to perform TEACH/SET methods and to program the sensor remotely. Connect the white
input wire of the sensor to ground (0 V dc), with a remote switch connected between them. Pulse the remote input
according to the diagram shown in Figure 4 on page 12. Follow the instructions in the TEACH/SET sections in Adjust
Mode on page 12 to perform a TEACH/SET method.
The sensor exits TEACH and remote programming modes after a 60 second timeout. Users may exit TEACH and remote
programming modes by setting the remote input low for more than 2 seconds. In either case, the sensor returns to Run
mode without saving any new settings.

DF-G1 Expert™ Dual Display Fiber Amplifier
4 IO-Link Interface
IO-Link is a point-to-point communication link between a master device and sensor. Use IO-Link to parameterize sensors
and transmit process data automatically.
For the latest IO-Link protocol and specifications, see www.io-link.com.
Each IO-Link device has an IODD (IO Device Description) file that contains information about the manufacturer, article
number, functionality etc. This information can be easily read and processed by the user. Each device can be
unambiguously identified via the IODD as well as via an internal device ID. Download the DF-G1 Expert Fiber Amplifier's IOLink IODD package (p/n 18491) from Banner Engineering's website at www.bannerengineering.com.
Banner has also developed Add On Instruction (AOI) files to simplify ease-of-use between the DF-G1 Expert Fiber Amplifier,
multiple third-party vendors' IO-Link masters, and the Logix Designer software package for Rockwell Automation PLCs.
Three types of AOI files for Rockwell Allen-Bradley PLCs are listed below. These files and more information can be found at
www.bannerengineering.com.
Process Data AOIs—These files can be used alone, without the need for any other IO‐Link AOIs. The job of a Process Data
AOI is to intelligently parse out the Process Data word(s) in separate pieces of information. All that is required to make use
of this AOI is an EtherNet/IP connection to the IO‐Link Master and knowledge of where the Process Data registers are
located for each port.
Parameter Data AOIs—These files require the use of an associated IO‐Link Master AOI. The job of a Parameter Data AOI,
when working in conjunction with the IO‐Link Master AOI, is to provide quasi‐realtime read/write access to all IO‐Link
parameter data in the sensor. Each Parameter Data AOI is specific to a given sensor or device.
IO‐Link Master AOIs—These files require the use of one or more associated Parameter Data AOIs. The job of an IO‐Link
Master AOI is to translate the desired IO‐Link read/write requests, made by the Parameter Data AOI, into the format a
specific IO‐Link Master requires. Each IO‐Link Master AOI is customized for a given brand of IO‐Link Master.
Add and configure the relevant Banner IO‐Link Master AOI in your ladder logic program first; then add and configure Banner
IO‐Link Device AOIs as desired, linking them to the Master AOI as shown in the relevant AOI documentation.
