Functions
Models with digital output + analog output
Diagram #1: Illustrates the output behavior based on sensing distance (P1 and P2). P1 is the maximum selected working distance, and P2 is the minimum selected working distance. The output can be N.O. (Normally Open) or N.C. (Normally Closed) for digital output, and V/mA for analog output.
Note: P1 = maximum selected working distance and first point to select. P2 = minimum selected working distance and second point to select.
Models with double digital output: hysteresis or standard window
Diagram #2: Illustrates hysteresis (H) and window (SP1, SP2) modes for double digital outputs. Shows N.O. and N.C. outputs based on sensing distances (P1, P2, L, H, SP1, SP2).
Connections: Pin 2 (white wire) for digital output, Pin 4 (black wire) for digital output.
