illuminated/non-illuminated state Explanation: I believe it simply refers to whether the light sensor is illuminated or not. I am not sure whether there is a specific term used for this in English. An explanation of the term with a diagram can be found at the link below, which is a Panasonic glossary document: http://www3.panasonic.biz/ac/download/service/tech_support/f... |

beam reception / beam interruption Explanation: I think "beam reception / beam interruption" works in this context and based on the sensor beam being blocked when an object being detected. "Beam received / blocked" could also work depending on the tone. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2013-09-05 10:26:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- beam reception / interruption Reference: http://www.proz.com/?sp=mt&eid_s=45322&glossary=6115&nresult... https://www.elmark.com.pl/uploaded/materialy/Panasonic/pdf/hlt1.pdf |
