Adjustment
procedure
Place the standard object at the specified
position. Slowly turn the SENSITIVITY
adjuster clockwise (toward “High”) and stop
it when the OPER. indicator illuminates.
Move the object to confirm that the OPER.
indicator is ON when the object is at the
specified position and that it is OFF when
the object is moved away from that
position.
