Hysteresis - Glossary - Photoelectric Sensors

Hysteresis

For a reflective sensor, the hysteresis is the difference between the operation distance, when the output first results in light-ON with the standard sensing object approaching along the sensing axis, and the resumption distance, when the output first results in light-OFF with the standard sensing object receding. It is displayed as a percentage (%) versus the operation distance. The movement distance is displayed as a percentage (%).
Hysteresis prevents output instability caused by vibrations in the sensing object.
