When the amount light received approaches the
threshold value, the display can be made to blink in
order to alert the operator.
<When using at a shift amount of 20% and a threshold value of 1,000>
The amount of light received ranges from about 900 to 1,100
when the digital indicator flashes.

synchronizing the settings on all the devices, trouble from
setting errors can be prevented, meaning fewer changes
to the instruction manuals even when equipment design
is changed.
