Calibration Steps for Maximum Detection Distance:

1. Make sure the sensor is fixed in its working environment, powered on, and connected to the detection coil. Calibration must be done in the actual operating environment.

2. Rotate the Distance Potentiometer fully clockwise.

3. Rotate the Sensitivity Potentiometer counterclockwise until the detection LED turns on.

4. Rotate the Sensitivity Potentiometer slowly clockwise until the detection LED turns off.

5. Rotate the Distance Potentiometer counterclockwise until the detection LED turns on.

6. Rotate the Distance Potentiometer slowly clockwise again until the LED turns off.

💡 Tip: To decrease the overall sensitivity, rotate either the Sensitivity or Distance potentiometers clockwise.
