Sensitivity Adjustment; Maintenance, Repair, Disposal - Rechner Sensors Extreme-Range KXC Serie Manual De Instrucciones

Sensitivity adjustment

The adjustment is made after mounting the sensor with an adjustment potentiometer. Right-turn increases
the sensitivity, Left-turn reduces the sensitivity.
Attention:
Because of the high sensitivity of the proximity sensor it is possible that during the adjustment the hand
can lead to the switching of the sensor or may influence the switching point. Therefore, it is important to
take note, that there are constant conditions within the measuring area, except for the change for which
detection is required. Please check the function after adjustment and correct it if necessary.
After mechanical changes or change to the position of the sensor or alterations within the measuring
area a re-adjustment is necessary.
