Communication Interfaces

The Sensor includes communication interfaces for compatibility with a wide

range of host devices. This helps reduce the design work required for data

communications between the Sensor and a PLC.

Our expansion units enable expansion to up to three

times the number of I/O connections. This enables the

output of individual judgement results for each inspec-

tion, a feature that has been highly requested.

I/O Expansion Units

FINS

OMRON’s exclusive FINS/TCP communications interface

can be used to connect to low-cost OMRON PLCs. With

this communications interface, no communications con-

trols are required to process the sending and receiving of

complex TCP packets. You get faster, simpler connections

to OMRON PLCs.

EtherNet/IP™

EtherNet/IP™ communications, a standard widely used in

communications systems in factories around the world, is

also supported. This communication interface enables

simple and easy connections to a wide range of EtherNet/IP™

devices, including OMRON PLCs.

This Sensor Data Unit supports standard RS-232C com-

munications.

This is a small monitor with a touch panel. It's du-

rable, rugged design is shock-resistant and porta-

ble. It has passed our standard 1.3 m drop test.

On-screen messages can be changed between

nine different languages: English, Traditional Chi-

nese, Simplified Chinese, Korean, Japanese,

German, French, Italian, and Spanish.

Touch Finder

The Setup Tool provides the same functions as

those on the Touch Finder, but on a PC. In addi-

tion, offline simulation can be performed without

the need of a sensor. The software can be down-

loaded for free by any customer with the purchase

of a Sensor. Refer to the member registration

sheet that is enclosed with the sensor for details.

Touch Finder for PC

You can choose the operation interface and monitor size to suit your application.

Customizing user interface using .NET controls*

makes the onsite monitor easier to read. You can

increase or reduce the size of displayed measure-

ment images and text to meet the demands of

onsite operators.
