1 Check the application conditions: Adjust the sensing range and distance to the ob‐
ject or background and the remission capability of the object according to the cor‐
responding diagram [H] (x = sensing range, y = transition range between the set
sensing range (background) and the object as a % of the sensing range (object re‐
mission / background remission)). Remission: 6% = black , 18% = grey , 90%
= white  (referring to standard white as per DIN 5033).
The minimum distance (= y) for reliable object detection can be determined from
diagram [H] as follows:
