Overwhelmingly stable
Fitted with a precise CMOS image sensor and an original algorithm
Thanks to a precise CMOS image sensor,
it is now possible to perform highly precise
measurements in the order of 1/100 mm
0.0003 in. The existing adjustable range
reective sensors cannot achieve such
accuracy.

In general, more accurate and
stable measurements can be
obtained by increasing the
optical path length between the
light-receiving part and the light
receiving element (CMOS), but
this also increases the sensor
depth and the sensor body gets
bigger.
The HG-C series sensors
incorporating a new optical
system with a built-in mirror
provides smaller sensor depth
as well as higher measurement
accuracy equivalent to
displacement sensors.

Teaching & window comparator mode
Useful functions
With an object below the sensor, press the TEACH key to set the valid range for distances via threshold values.
There are 3 methods for setting the valid range: 1-point, 2-point, and 3-point teaching.
Timer setting function
OFF
OFF
ON
Perform 1-point teaching and the threshold
range is set for the distance from the reference
surface of the sensing object.
This is used for sensing within the threshold
range.
Press TEACH once for the lower (first point) and
once for the upper limit (second point).
This is the method to set the threshold range by
conducting the teaching at 3 points (sensing object A,
B and C). After teaching, the reference points are
automatically sorted in ascending order (reference
point 1, 2 and 3). The thresholds are set at the
midpoints between reference point 1 and 2, and 2 and
3, respectively.
In addition to the teaching & window
comparator mode, the “rising differential
mode”, “trailing differential mode” and
“normal sensing mode” are available.
In normal sensing mode, “2-point teaching”
as basic teaching and “limit teaching,”
which is useful for very small objects and
backgrounds, are possible.

The time mode options are “OFF-delay timer,” “ON-delay timer,” “One-shot timer” and “no timer.” The counting time is
xed to 5 ms.
OFF-delay timer
Function: Extends output signals by 5 ms.
Usage: Appropriate in case a connected device is slow to
respond and ON time is required to extend.
ON-delay timer
Function: Overrides output signals for 5 ms after detection.
Usage: Convenient way to override temporary signals and
control with a time lag.
One-shot timer
Function: Sends output signals for only 5 ms after detection.
Usage: Useful when the signal duration needs to be
constant to meet inputs from a connected device.
This mode is also used to extend temporary signals
by a desired length of time.

Useful functions
Zero set function External input setting function
Display setting function
This function compulsorily sets the measured value to
“zero.” The zero point can be set at a desired value.
It is useful when measuring steps or tolerance with
reference to the height of a sensing object.
One of four functions, “zero setting function,” “teaching
function,” “emission stopping function” and “trigger
function” can be assigned to an external input line.
Keep pressing both keys for 3 seconds.
* The zero set indicator (yellow) will turn ON while the zero set is valid.
* When the zero set function is executed while the peak hold function or
the bottom hold function is valid, the held measurement value is reset.
* When the display setting is set to offset, the zero set function cannot be
set.
Assign any one.

How to indicate measured values of the moving sensed object can be chosen from three options, “Normal,” “Invert”
and “Offset.”
Peak and bottom hold functions
The peak hold function holds the maximum measured
value which is output and displayed.
The bottom hold function holds the minimum measured
value which is output and displayed.
* The peak hold function and the bottom hold function cannot be set at
the same time.
* When the zero set function is executed while the peak hold function or
the bottom hold function is valid, the held measurement value is reset.
Threshold value ne adjustment function
Fine adjustment of threshold values can be performed
while measurement is proceeding on the display, and
even after teaching.
* For other functions and procedures for setting the functions, see “PRO
Mode Setting” from p.196~.
Key lock function
This function protects setting conditions from unintentional
changes.

Due to leak light outside the specified area, the reflectance around the detecting point may be higher than at the point and this may affect the measurement
value.

PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE
Refer to p.1552~ for general precautions and p.1593~ for information about laser beam.
Mounting
• When mounting this product, use M3 screws.
The tightening torque should be 0.5 N m.
Please prepare M3 screws separately.
• Direction to a movable body
<When there are differences in material and color>
• When performing measurements of moving objects with
excessively different materials and colors, mount the product
per the following directions to minimize measurement errors.
<Measurement of rotating objects>
• When measuring rotating objects, mount the product as
follows. Measurement can be performed with minimized
effect on the object caused by up / down deflection,
position deviation and etc.
<When there is a step>
• When there is a step in the moving object, mount the
product as follows. Measurement can be performed with
minimized effect from the edges of the steps.

Mounting hole dimensions
• When mounting the simple mounting bracket (optional) on
this product, the tightening torque should be 0.5 N m or less.
Note: Due to the simple mounting bracket, the sensing characteristics may
not be hold depending on the installation condition, in case of the
purposes for acquiring the displacement data and a fine detecting.

• Measuring of narrow locations and recesses
• When mounting the product on a wall
Others
•
This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
•
Make sure that the power supply is OFF before starting the wiring.
•
If the wiring is performed incorrectly, it will cause a failure.
• Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or
power lines, or put them in the same raceway. This can
cause malfunction due to induction.
• Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
• If power is supplied from a commercial switching
regulator, ensure that the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of
the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
•
If noise generating devices (switching regulators, inverter
motors, etc.) are used around the sensor mounting area, make
sure to connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the device.
• Do not use this product during the transient state when
the power supply is turned ON.
• Extension up to total 10 m 32.808 ft is possible with
0.3 mm2 , or more, cable.
• Make sure that stress by forcible bend or pulling is not
applied to the sensor cable joint.
•
Take care that the sensor is not directly exposed to
fluorescent lamp from a rapid-starter lamp or a high frequency
lighting device, as it may affect the sensing performance.
• This product is suitable for indoor use only.
• Keep water, oil, fingerprints and etc. which reflect light, or
dust, particles or etc. which interrupts the light, away from
the emitting/receiving surfaces of this product.
If contaminants adhere to the surface, wipe off with a
dust-free soft cloth, or lens cleaning paper.
• Do not use the sensor in locations where there is
excessive vapor, dust or etc. or in an atmosphere where
corrosive gases, etc. is generated.
• Take care that the product does not come in contact with
oil, grease, organic solvents such as thinner, etc., strong
acid or alkaline.
• Make sure to turn OFF the power supply, before cleaning
the light emitting/receiving windows of the sensor head.
• There is a certain deviation in the directionality of this
product. Install the product using a mounting bracket or
similar fitting to allow the adjustment of optical axis.
• The internal memory (nonvolatile) of this product has a service
life. Settings cannot be configured more than 100,000 times.
• When measuring in narrow locations or inside holes,
mount the product so that optical path from the light-
emitting part to light-receiving part is not interrupted.
• Mount the product as follows, so that the multiple light
reflections on the wall do not emit to the light-receiving
part. When the reflection factor on a wall is high, it is
effective to use a dull black color.
