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.
RUN/PRG/ADJ Mode Switch
The RUN/PRG/ADJ mode switch puts the sensor in RUN, PRG (Program), or ADJ (Adjust) mode. RUN mode
allows the sensor to operate normally and prevents unintentional programming changes via the +/SET/-
button. PRG mode allows the sensor to be programmed through the display driven programming menu (see
Program Mode below). ADJ mode allows the user to perform Expert TEACH/SET methods and Manual
Adjust (see Adjust Mode below).
LO/DO Switch
The LO/DO switch is used to select Light Operate or Dark Operate mode. In Light Operate mode, the output
is ON when the sensing condition is above the threshold (for Window SET, the output is ON when the
sensing condition is inside the window). In Dark Operate mode, the output is ON when the sensing condition
is below the threshold (for Window SET, the output is ON when the sensing condition is outside the
window).
+/SET/- Rocker Button
The +/SET/- rocker button is a 3-way button. The +/- positions are engaged by rocking the button left/
right. The SET position is engaged by clicking down the button while the rocker is in the middle position. All
three button positions are used during PRG mode to navigate the display driven programming menu. During
ADJ mode, SET is used to perform TEACH/SET methods and +/- are used to manually adjust the
threshold(s). The rocker button is disabled during RUN mode, except when using Window SET, see Window
SET on page 10.
Red/Green Digital Displays
During RUN and ADJ mode, the Red display shows the signal level and the Green display shows the
threshold. During PRG mode, both displays are used to navigate the display driven programming menu.
Output LED
The output LED provides a visible indication when the output is activated.
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).
DF-G1 Expert™Dual Display Fiber Amplifier
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 10.

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).
Two-Point TEACH
• Establishes a single switching threshold
• Threshold can be adjusted using "+" 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 switchpoint) midway between the two taught conditions, with the Output ON condition on one side,
and the Output OFF condition on the other (see Figure 2 on page 7).

Moves switching threshold value up or down to make adjustments
• Slide Mode switch to ADJ to enter Adjust mode
• Press "+" to increase; press "-" to decrease
◦GREEN display shows the switching threshold value
◦2 seconds after adjustment, the GREEN display will flash 3 times to confirm
•Slide Mode switch to RUN to complete operation
Remember: Manual adjustments are disabled when Auto Thresholds are ON

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 (see Figure 3 on page 9).

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 (see Figure 4 on page 11).
