The analog output model of the light convergent reflective type Optical Sensor B5W-LB has a variable resister. Can it adjust the sensor’s sensitivity?

ID: FAQE40044E

update:

Answer

You should not alter variable resister position, which is set. Otherwise the sensor will not meet Omron’s guaranteed product specifications.

Explanation

This variable resistor is used only for our internal inspection. You should not alter its position, which is set by the factory. Otherwise the sensor will not meet Omron’s guaranteed product specifications.
Instead, set a threshold level for your specific application using actual objects to be sensed.

You should not alter variable resister position, which is set.

For details, see B5W-LB: User’s Manual, 6. Usage guidance (external circuit).
