Note that there is a correlation between noise immunity and 
operating frequency. When setting the sensor for Side-by-
Side sensing or High Noise Immunity, the operating fre-
quency of the sensor will be reduced. Refer to the 

 

iProx Pro-

gramming Software User Guide

 

 (P50228) for details.

 

Setting iProx for Side-by-Side or Facing Sensing

 

To set up iProx sensors for side-by-side or face-to-face oper-
ation, just follow the simple procedure below. This process 
requires that the iProx Programming Software be installed 
on your computer. Consult the 

 

iProx Programming Software 

User Guide

 

 (P50228) for detailed installation and operating 

instructions.

1. Connect the programming device to your computer. If 

using a Remote Programmer (E59RP1), connect it to 
your computer’s serial port. If using the Tray Program-
mer (E59TP1), you have the option of connecting 
through serial or USB ports.

2. Launch the iProx Programming Software from the Start 

menu.

3. If using the Remote Programmer, affix the magnetic 

puck to the face of the iProx sensor. If using the Tray Pro-
grammer, securely mount the iProx sensor(s) in the pro-
gramming receptacles. To ensure proper mounting, it 
may be necessary to remove the mounting nuts from 
the sensor.
