Overview

**WARNING:** Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury or death. This device does not include the self- checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-energized sensor output condition.

Models

Connector options:
• A model with a QD connector requires a mating cordset .
• For 9 m cable, change the suffix 2M to 9M in the 2 m model number (example, DF-G1-NS-9M).
• For 150 mm (6 in) PVC pigtail, M8 Pico QD connector, 4-pin change the suffix 2M to Q3 in the 2 m model number (example, DF-G1-NS-Q3).

Mounting Instructions

Mount on a DIN Rail

1. Hook the DIN rail clip on the bottom of the DF-G1 over the edge of the DIN rail (1).
2. Push the DF-G1 up on the DIN rail (1).
3. Pivot the DF-G1 onto the DIN rail, pressing until it snaps into place (2).

Mount to the Accessory Bracket

1. Position the DF-G1 in the SA-DIN-BRACKET.
2. Insert the supplied M3 screws.
3. Tighten the screws.

Remove from a DIN rail

1. Push the DF-G1 up on the DIN rail (1).
2. Pivot the DF-G1 away from the DIN rail and remove it (2).

Installing the Fibers

Follow these steps to install glass or plastic fibers.

1. Open the dust cover.
2. Move the fiber clamp forward to unlock it.
3. Insert the fiber(s) into the fiber port(s) until they stop.
4. Move the fiber clamp backward to lock the fiber(s).
5. Close the dust cover.

Fiber Adapters

NOTE: If a thin fiber with less than 2.2 mm outer diameter is used, install the fiber adapter provided with the fiber assembly to ensure a reliable fit in the fiber holder. Banner includes the adapters with all fiber assemblies.

DF-G1 Expert™ Dual Display Fiber Amplifier

When connecting coaxial-type fiber assemblies to the amplifier, install the single-core fiber to the Transmitter port, and the multi-core fiber to the Receiver port. This will result in the most reliable detection.

Wiring Diagrams

NOTE: Open lead wires must be connected to a terminal block.

Top Panel Interface

Opening the dust cover provides access to the top panel interface. The top panel interface consists of the RUN/PRG/ADJ mode switch, LO/DO switch, +/SET/- rocker button, dual red/green digital displays, and output LED.

Operating Instructions

Remote Input/IO-Link
For more information about how to perform TEACH/SET methods, to program the sensor remotely, or to interface with the sensor via IO-Link, see the DF-G1 Manual (P/N 161999).

Run Mode

Run mode allows the sensor to operate normally and prevents unintentional programming changes. The +/SET/- rocker button is disabled during RUN mode, except when using Window SET, see Window SET on page 7.

Adjust Mode

Sliding the RUN/PRG/ADJ mode switch to the ADJ position allows the user to perform Expert TEACH/SET methods and Manual Adjustment of the threshold(s).

TEACH Procedures
The instruction manual has detailed instructions for these TEACH modes:

• Two-Point TEACH
• Dynamic TEACH
• Window SET
• Light SET
• Dark SET
• Calibration SET

Two-Point TEACH

• Establishes a single switching threshold
• Threshold can be adjusted by using the “+” and “-” rocker button (Manual Adjust)

Two-Point TEACH is used when two conditions can be presented statically to the sensor. The sensor locates a single sensing threshold (the switch point) midway between the two taught conditions, with the Output ON condition on one side, and the Output OFF condition on the other.

The Output ON and OFF conditions can be reversed by using the LO/DO (Light Operate/ Dark Operate) switch.

Dynamic TEACH

• Teaches on-the-fly
• Establishes a single switching threshold
• Threshold can be adjusted using “+” and “-” rocker button (Manual Adjust)

Dynamic TEACH is best used when a machine or process may not be stopped for teaching. The sensor learns during actual sensing conditions, taking multiple samples of the light and dark conditions and automatically setting the threshold at the optimum level.

The output ON and OFF conditions can be reversed using the LO/DO switch.

Window SET

• Sets window thresholds that extend a programmable % offset above and below the presented condition
• All other conditions (lighter or darker) cause the output to change state
• Sensing window center can be adjusted using “+” and “-” rocker button (Manual Adjust)
• Recommended for applications where a product may not always appear in the same place, or when other signals may appear
• See Program Mode in the user’s manual for programming the Offset Percent setting (to increase/decrease the window size)

A single sensing condition is presented, and the sensor positions window thresholds a programmable % offset above and below the presented condition. In LO mode, Window SET designates a sensing window with the Output ON condition inside the window, and the Output OFF conditions outside the window.

Output ON and OFF conditions can be reversed using the LO/DO switch.

Light SET
•

• Sets a threshold a programmable % offset below the presented condition
• Changes output state on any condition darker than the threshold condition
• Threshold can be adjusted using “+” and “-” rocker button (Manual Adjust)
• Recommended for applications where only one condition is known, for example a stable light background with varying darker targets
• See Program Mode on page 5 for programming the Offset Percent setting

A single sensing condition is presented, and the sensor positions a threshold a programmable % offset below the presented condition. When a condition darker than the threshold is sensed, the output either turns ON or OFF, depending on the LO/DO setting.

Dark SET
• Sets a threshold a programmable % offset above the presented condition Any condition lighter than the threshold condition causes the output to change state  Threshold can be adjusted using “+” and “-” rocker button (Manual Adjust)

• Recommended for applications where only one condition is known, for example a stable dark background with varying lighter targets
•  See Program Mode on page 5 for programming the Offset Percent setting

NOTE: Offset Percent MUST be programmed to Minimum Offset to accept conditions of no signal (0 counts).

A single sensing condition is presented, and the sensor positions a threshold a programmable % offset above the presented condition. When a condition lighter than the threshold is sensed, the output either turns ON or OFF, depending on the LO/DO setting.

Calibration SET
•

• Sets a threshold exactly at the presented condition
• •Threshold can be adjusted using “+” and “-” rocker button (Manual Adjust)

A single sensing condition is presented, and the sensor positions a threshold exactly at the presented condition. When a condition lighter than the threshold is sensed, the output either turns ON or OFF, depending on the LO/DO setting.

Troubleshooting

Manual Adjustments Disabled
Manual adjustments are disabled when Auto Thresholds are ON. If a manual adjustment is attempted while Auto Thresholds are ON, the Green display will flash

Percent Minimum Difference after TEACH
The Two-Point and Dynamic TEACH methods will flash a % minimum difference on the displays after a PASS or FAIL.

Specifications
