1-level Teaching

This sets the shift value to any desired value, and sets the ON level / OFF level 
(1_SL, 2_SL) by means of 1-level teaching (P-1).

2-level Teaching

This carries out 2-level teaching (P-1, P-2) and sets the ON level / OFF level 
(1_SL, 2_SL).

3-level Teaching

This carries out 3-level teaching (P-1, P-2, P-3) and sets the ON level / OFF level 
(1_SL, 2_SL) between A and B as shown in the diagram below. 
After teaching, P-1, P-2 and P-3 are automatically assigned in ascending order to 
‘A’ ‘B’, and ‘C’.

This sets the ON / OFF levels with any of the 3 teaching methods (‘1-level 
teaching’, ‘2-level teaching’ and ‘3-level teaching’) and sets the hysteresis. 
By adjusting the hysteresis, the irregular sections of sensing objects with 
irregularities are canceled out so that stable sensing is possible.
