Figure 2. Two-Point TEACH (Light Operate
shown)
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.

Recommendation
6 to 8
Excellent: Very stable operation
4 to 5
Good: Minor sensing variables
will not affect sensing reliability.
