ching output: push/pull output Q: PNP: light switching; NPN: dark switching, pin 1: L+,
pin 2: M, pin 3: not connected, pin 4: not connected, pin 5: Q, pin 6: not connected
Table Fault diagnosis indicates which measures are to be taken if the sensor stops
working.

Check the operating conditi‐
ons: Fully align the beam of
light (light spot) with the ob‐
ject. / Clean the optical surfa‐
ces . / Readjust the sensitivity
(potentiometer) (teach-in) /
Check sensing range and ad‐
just if necessary; see graphic
