Step 2
Determine the desired maximum distance (end of measuring range) between the sensor surface and the
target.
Set the output voltage to 10 V with the ’gain’ potentiometer.
Step 3
Repeat steps 1 and 2 about three times until a stable potentiometer setting results.
Replace the housing cover.
If the sensor face and the target are mismatched (not parallel), there will be a loss in the range and a shift in
the zero point depending on the tilt.
Curved target surfaces cause linearity reductions if the distance between the sensor and the target is small.
Linearity and sensitivity deviations also occur with a too small target dimensions.
