E2Q6 Mutual Interference Switching the Sensing Direction If more than one Proximity Sensor is installed face-to-face or side-byside, make sure that the distances between two units adjacent to each other are the same as or larger than the corresponding values shown in the following table. 1. Remove two screws. B A 2. Lifting the sensing surface separates it from the case.
