NOTE
The values given for the minimum transmission difference are typical values.
Optimum alignment is a prerequisite for achieving this data. Regular teach-in is also
recommended.
The minimum transmission difference increases due to signal reduction, e.g. due to
contamination or an increasing working distance.
