Digital Fiber Amplifier
E3X-DA
Digital Fiber Amplifier Provides High
Performance and Ease of Use
First amplifier to offer three
user-selectable displays: digital level,
percentage and analog display
Flashing LED and digital display of light
intensity simplifies optical axis alignment
Reverse mode sets the digital display to
read right-side-up regardless of
amplifier orientation
Adjustable off-delay timer (0 to 200 ms)
Three setting modes let users choose
the ratio of response speed to sensing
distance: standard sensing distance
(400 mm), long sensing distance
(500 mm) and high speed (250 s)
12-bit A/D converter ensures high
resolution for precise detection and
differentiation
Choose digital or dual analog/digital
output models with NPN or PNP output

DISPLAY AND SPECIAL FUNCTION SETTINGS
Display Setting
The E3X-DA offers three display modes, which are Digital Incident Level display, Digital Percent display and Analog display.
Digital Incident Level Display: the incident level is digitally displayed.
Digital Percent Display: the threshold-based excess gain is displayed in percentage.
Analog Display: threshold and excess gain is displayed by two-color (red and green) bar graph.
Special Function Setting
The E3X-DA series has various functions that give users more flexibility in meeting a variety of application requirements.
Sensing Function: Enables users to choose either standard sensing distance mode (400 mm), long sensing distance mode
(500 mm) or high speed mode (response time = 250 s)
Timer Function: Enables users to select various OFF-delay timer settings from (0 to 200 ms). OFF-delay timer lengthens the dura-
tion of a short, high-speed signal so that it can be recognized as input to Programmable Controllers during a scan cycle.
Flashing Function: Flashing red LED allows easier optical axis adjustment.
Display Hold Setting: This function provides easy data reading during optical axis adjustment and high-speed detection by holding
the displayed value for a period of time. Displayed data gets updated every 2 seconds. Within the 2-second timeframe, the maximum
or minimum value is displayed (data will be flashing).
Display Orientation Setting: Reversible digital display provides easy data reading from any mounting orientation.
