Recommended for applications where only one condition is known, for example a stable dark background with
varying lighter targets
•
See
on page 5 for programming the Offset Percent setting
NOTE: Offset Percent MUST be programmed to Minimum Offset to accept conditions of no signal (0
counts).
A single sensing condition is presented, and the sensor positions a threshold a programmable % offset above the
presented condition. When a condition lighter than the threshold is sensed, the output either turns ON or OFF, depending
on the LO/DO setting.

Troubleshooting
Manual Adjustments Disabled
Manual adjustments are disabled when Auto Thresholds are ON. If a manual adjustment is attempted while Auto
Thresholds are ON, the Green display will flash
.
Percent Minimum Difference after TEACH
The Two-Point and Dynamic TEACH methods will flash a % minimum difference on the displays after a PASS or FAIL.
Value
PASS/FAIL
Description
0 to 99%
FAIL
The difference of the taught conditions does not meet the required minimum
100 to 300%
PASS
The difference of the taught conditions just meets/exceeds the required minimum,
minor sensing variables may affect sensing reliability
