Assign the three sensors

A sensor set with three sensors of the selected sensor type is created. Tap sensors 1–3 to assign the respective sensors to the switch poles and adjust them.

All three sensors need to be the same.

Define the adjustment points

Connect the sensor. Move the sensor to a defined position—for example, by approaching a gauge block—and use the arrow button to define the first adjustment point.

Move a defined distance and use the arrow button to define the second adjustment point. Enter the length of the defined path in the “dX in” field.

The sensor’s actual input range is automatically calculated, displayed, and stored for correction during measurements with that sensor.
