2. Adjust the height of the sensor.
3. Check the operation of the sensor by waving your hand in
front of it.
Note: If the conveyor does not ride smoothly, you may need to
increase this distance to avoid false rejects caused by case
hopping as it travels on the conveyor.
Note: When you pass your hand in front of the sensor beam,
ensure that the indicator light emitting diode (LED) on the back
of the sensor turns off and on. The sensor beam is working
correctly when the sensor turns on and off.
