7.1 Alignment
Sensor with infrared light (not visible):
Align sensor on object. Select the position so that the infrared light hits the center of
the object. The correct alignment can be detected via the signal strength light bar on
the back of the sensor and the LED on the top of the sensor. See
figure 1 and table 1 .
You must ensure that the optical opening (front screen) of the sensor is completely
clear.

7.2 Check the application conditions
Sensing range
Check the application conditions: Adjust the sensing range and the remission capability
of the object according to the corresponding diagram [see
table 10 ]. (x = sensing range,
y = operating reserve).
During this process, an object can only be detected in front of a background if the
remission capability of the object is significantly higher than that of the background or if
the distance between the object and the background is sufficiently long.
