Display and Indicators
The display is a 4-digit, 7-segment LED. The main screen is the Run mode screen.
For 2-pt, BGS, FGS, and DYN TEACH modes, the display shows the current distance to the target in millimeters. For dual TEACH mode, the display
shows the percentage matched to the taught reference surface. A display value of

Note: The indicators represent the currently selected channel. However, if Output 2 is set to something other than LO, DO, or
Complementary, then the indicators represent the Channel 1 status.
Output Indicator
• On—Output is on
• Off—Output is off
Stability Indicator (STB)
• On—Stable signal within the specified sensing range
• Flashing—Marginal signal, the target is outside the limits of the
specified sensing range, or a multiple peak condition exists
• Off—No target detected within the specified sensing range
Buttons
Use the sensor buttons (SELECT)(TEACH), (+)(CH1/CH2), and (-)(MODE) to program the sensor.
