Installation
Multiple sensor pairs located farther than the sensor's effective maximum range (approximately 2 m or 6.5 ft) from one another are unlike-
ly to cause crosstalk problems. However, when multiple sensor pairs are mounted in a confined area, take care to avoid crosstalk be-
tween them. To avoid crosstalk:
• Alternate the relative position of adjacent emitter/receiver pairs.
• Alternate the Frequency configuration of adjacent pairs.
Mount emitter and receiver pairs parallel, with both cable ends pointing the same direction.
