„ Panel mount type, main unit (IB-1500)
1
Make a hole on the panel as shown in the diagrams below.
2
Insert the back side of amplifier to the hole of the panel.
3
Arrange the panel mounting bracket in the direction below,
mount to the amplifier from the back and attach the front
protection cover to the amplifier.
To remove the panel mounting bracket, widen
the claws at both ends of the panel mounting
tool using a screwdriver, as demonstrated in the
image on the right.
„ Panel mount type, expansion unit (IB-1550)
Expansion units must be connected to the main unit before they can be used.
Up to 3 expansion units can be connected to one main unit.
1
Make the appropriate number of holes in the panel according to
the number of amplifiers required (expansion units).
For the panel cutting measurement, refer to the "Panel mount type, main unit".
2
Install the amplifiers (expansion units) on the panel.
For the amplifier mounting method, refer to the "Panel mount type, main unit".
3
Connect the amplifiers (main and expansion units) using the
expansion cable (50 mm) supplied with the expansion unit.
„ Mounting the sensor head
Mount the sensor head with
the enclosed screws (IB-01/
IB-05/IB-10: M3, IB-30: M4).
Tightening torque: 0.3 N · m or
less
(Tightening torque for IB-01:
0.1N · m or less)
„ Connecting the sensor head and amplifier
1
Attach the receiver's sensor
head connection cable to the
amplifier’s [R] connector.
Remove the lock cover of the
connector and insert it into the
connectors of amplifier until a
clicking sound can be head.
2
Attach the lock cover to the connector to secure the cable.
• When connecting the expansion cable, make sure to turn off
the power beforehand. Inserting or removing the cable with
the power turned on may cause damage to the units.
• Push the expansion cable connector securely all the way. Take
care not to insert the connector at an angle and to insert it
securely or the units could get damaged.
• When connecting the expansion units, make sure to initialize
the connected expansion units and set the output polarity.
(1)When turning on the amplifier for the first time after connect-
ing the sensor head please reference
"Operation When the Power Is Turned On for the First Time" (Page 6)
(2)When initializing the unit please reference
"Initial Reset (Initialize)" (Page 8)
• Expansion units with different settings for output polarity
(such as an NPN output expansion unit to a PNP output main
unit) cannot be connected together.
• Expansion units using panel mount cannot be connected to a
DIN rail mounted main unit.
When arranging the amplifiers
side by side, the 300 mm
expansion cable (OP-35361)
is required.

Mounting the Sensor Head
• Always use mounting holes facing the same direction for
the sensor head transmitter and receiver. (Excluding IB-01)
• Do not tighten the screws with a torque exceeding 0.3 N.m.
The sensor head could deform, thus preventing beam axis
alignment.
When mounting the sensor, confirm that the transmitter and
receiver faces on which the nameplate label is attached are
facing the same direction. (Only for IB-30)
Connection and Wiring
When removing the sensor head connection cable, push the
lock lever and pull it back.
