Offset
Percent
The
Offset
Percent is used during the Window, Light, or Dark SET methods. The threshold(s) are
positioned
a programmable %
offset
from the taught
condition.
The allowable
offset
percent range varies based on the response speed, teach method and
sensitivity
settings
as shown below:

3.2.5 Auto Thresholds
Auto Thresholds can be programmed to be ON/OFF. The Auto Thresholds algorithm
continuously
tracks slow changes in the taught
condition(s),
and
optimizes
the threshold(s) to provide for reliable sensing. For Two-Point and Dynamic TEACH, the algorithm
optimizes
the threshold to be centered between the light and dark
conditions.
For Window, Light, and Dark SET, the algorithm
optimizes
the
threshold(s) to maintain the programmed
Offset
Percent from the taught
condition.
•
After
programming Auto Thresholds to ON, it is highly recommended to re-perform the TEACH/SET method
• Manual Adjustments are disabled when Auto Thresholds are ON
• Auto Thresholds are
automatically
disabled in
Calibration
SET (see
on page 20)
• Severe
contamination/changes
in the taught
condition
can prevent the Auto Thresholds algorithm from
optimizing
the
threshold(s). If this occurs, the DF-G2 enters a Threshold Alert or Threshold Error state. See
on page 21 for
more
explanation.
