You can find the gap between the sensor and the target by measuring the sensor
impedance if the following relationships are identified:
• Relationship between the sensor and the target gap.
• Relationship of the sensor impedance.
This system is designed to fulfill the specifications when used under the following
configuration.
Always combine the components of this system (sensor, extension cable,
IMPORTANT
and driver) to configure it as follows. If this system is not configured as
shown below, or if the 1442 extension cable is not used in combining the
1442 sensor and driver, the output characteristics will differ dramatically.
