Sensing range setting
The sensitivity (sensing range) is adjusted with the potentiometer (type: 270°). Clock‐
wise rotation: sensitivity (sensing range) increased; counterclockwise rotation: sensitiv‐
ity (sensing range) reduced. It is recommended to place the object within the sensing
range, e.g. see
table
17. Once the sensitivity is set, remove the object from the beam
path. The digital output changes.
