J STAND-ALONE TYPE
This is the most common configuration, and it is used to
protect a hazardous part of a machine when approached
from one direction only.

SERIES CONNECTION TYPES
When your application requires an additional protective zone,
for example, to prevent someone from staying behind a primary
detection zone, the F3S-B may be connected in series. The
system consists of a Master Unit, a Slave Unit, and a series
connection cable, type F39-JB1B.
The series connection allows up to 96 axes and 2.4 m of
protective height in total.
Series connection types have the same characteristics as
stand-alone types. When the detection zone of the Master Unit
or that of the Slave Unit is interrupted, the outputs of the Master
Unit go to the OFF-state.
Note: Slave Unit does not have indicators.
Master Unit and Slave Unit need to be ordered
separately.
