In case of 2-level teaching
•This is the method of setting the threshold value by teaching two levels, corresponding to the object present and object absent conditions. Normally, setting is done by this method.

In case of limit teaching
•This is the method of setting the threshold value by teaching only the object absent condition (stable incident light condition). This is used for detection in the presence of a background body or for detection of small objects.

2)Do not move or bend the fiber cable after the sensitivity setting. Detection may become unstable.
