Calibration SET
• Sets a threshold exactly at the presented condition
• Threshold can be adjusted using "+" and "-" rocker button (Manual Adjust)
A single sensing condition is presented, and the sensor positions a threshold exactly at the presented condition. When a condition
lighter than the threshold is sensed, the output either turns ON or OFF, depending on the LO/DO setting.

Manual Adjustments Disabled
Manual adjustments are disabled when Auto Thresholds are ON. If a manual adjustment is attempted while Auto Thresholds are
ON, the Green display will
flash .
Percent Minimum Difference after TEACH
The Two-Point and Dynamic TEACH methods will
flash a % minimum difference on the displays after a PASS or FAIL.
Value
PASS/FAIL Description
0 to 99% FAIL The difference of the taught conditions does not meet the required minimum
100 to 300% PASS The difference of the taught conditions just meets/exceeds the required minimum, minor
sensing variables may affect sensing reliability
300 to 600% PASS The difference of the taught conditions sufficiently exceeds the required minimum, minor
sensing variables will not affect sensing reliability
600% + PASS The difference of the taught conditions greatly exceeds the required minimum, very stable
operation
Percent Offset after SET
The Window, Dark, and Light SET methods will flash a % offset on the displays after a PASS or FAIL.
SET Result
% Offset Meaning
PASS (with % Offset) Displays the % offset used for the SET method
FAIL (with % Offset) Displays the minimum required % offset necessary to PASS the SET method
FAIL (without % Offset) Presented condition cannot be used for the SET method
