After installing the sensor, a magnet is positioned on the stand close enough to the sensor to activate one of 9 settings. - 9 = high sensitivity to small magnets ... 1 = low sensitivity. - Setting of 1 might be used by someone who solders on PCBs with magnets and does not wish Pinecil to auto-sleep constantly. They would also need to use a very strong/large neomydium magnet on the stand to activate the sensor sleep mode. - Setting of 9 would be useful if you only had a small magnet and are not concerned about Pinecil falsely triggering sleep mode near items like magnetized screwdrivers.
