E3MC

E3MC

Nomenclature

Operation Indicator (Orange)

Illuminated when output is ON.

Under mode B (single-output

models), the indicator will be

illuminated when mode B is

active or when the mode selec-

tor is set to TEACH.

Bank Indicator (Green)

1-channel models. Displays

selected bank.

TEACH Button

Stores target color. On 4-channel

models, used to check the number

of channels that are indicated by

both the operation indicator and

channel indicator.

Detection Level Indicator (Green)

Displays similarity level between

registered and detectable colors.

Threshold Indicator (Red)

Displays threshold level.

Tolerance #7

Channel Indicator (Orange)

4-channel models. Displays

selected channels. Illuminated

when the output of each channel

is ON.

Color Discrimination Mode Selection (Mode C is Recommended for Normal Applications)

Mode C: Color discrimination is performed according to R (red), G (green), and B (blue) ratio of the reflection light even

if the sensing objects fluctuate up and down within the rated sensing range.

Mode I: Color discrimination is performed according to RGB light intensity of reflection light. This mode ensures more

delicate color discrimination than mode C.

Response Time Selection

3 ms (6 ms): The E3MC can stably detect minute differences of color. Set the response time to 3 ms for usual

applications.

1 ms (2 ms): The E3MC will be in quick-response operation. Set the response time to 1 ms if high-speed response is

required.

OFF-delay Timer Setting

---:

No OFF-delay timer is set.

TMR: A 40-ms OFF-delay timer is set for control output.

Conformity/Non-conformity Output (See glossary—Light/Dark Operate)

=:

Output is ON when the detected color coincides with the registered color.

≠: Output is ON when the detected color does not coincide with the registered color.
