42JT VisiSight™ Photoelectric Background Suppression Sensors
Default Settings:
The factory default settings are as follows:
Sensing Range: Maximum Setting
Output Mode: Light operate (Output ON when target detected)
Output Type: Auto PNP/NPN or IO-Link. In Auto PNP/NPN mode,
the sensor continuously monitors the load connection and
automatically configures the output to PNP or NPN.
