Mounting and Adjusting the Sensor Head

LV-S31

Adjusting the trimmer (detection position)

The detection range can be selected as desired by adjusting the trimmer.

Adjusting the center of detection

1

Place the workpiece at the position you
want to set as the center of detection.

2

Turn the trimmer until JUST
indicator (2) illuminates in green.

Finer adjustment is possible by looking at the display on the amplifier (page 9).

Detecting a height difference

A stable detection is made possible by
adjusting the trimmer so that the middle
point of the height comes to the center of
detection.

Be sure to use the supplied mounting bracket.

1

Press the mounting bracket on the sensor head.

Be sure to hook the A portion of the mounting bracket on the B portion of
the sensor head.

2

Install the sensor head on the flat surface with the

M3 screws as shown in the following figure.

(The M3 screw is not an accessory.)

Adjusting the beam axis

(1) The beam axis angle can be adjusted horizontally by swinging the

bracket to the left and right with screws (a), (b) and (c) loosened. In order
to tighten the screws, be sure to tighten screw (b) first.

(2) The angle of the beam axis can be changed downward if the screw indi-
