Two-Point Static TEACH (Switch Point)

• Sets a single switching threshold

• Threshold position is adjustable using “+” and “-” buttons (Manual Adjust)
Two-Point TEACH is the traditional setup method, used when two conditions can be

presented by the user. The sensor locates a single sensing threshold (the switch point)

midway between the two taught conditions, with the Output ON condition on one side, and

the Output OFF condition on the other (see Figure 2).
The first condition taught is the ON condition. The Output ON and OFF conditions can be

reversed by changing Light/Dark Operate status in SETUP mode.

Two-Point TEACH and Manual Adjust

Using Manual Adjust with Two-Point TEACH moves the switching threshold. The lighted

LED on the bargraph will move to exhibit the relative amount of received signal.
