A new optical system
with a built-in mirror
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.

Useful functions
Teaching & window comparator mode
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.

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.
Timer setting function
The time mode options are “OFF-delay timer,” “ON-delay timer,” “One-shot timer” and “no timer.” The counting time is
fixed to 5 ms.

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.
