ABSTRACT:
A position detecting means comprising a sensor arrangement (14) for producing at least one sensor signal in a fashion dependent on a body (11) moving past said means, the sensor signal or signals continuously changing on such movement past. The at least one sensor signal is compared with at least one reference value in a comparator arrangement (20), control means being provided for electronic setting of the sensor arrangement (14) by changing the reference value and the output signal of the comparator arrangement (20) forms the position signal (P) for detection of a relative position of the body (11) and the sensor arrangement (14). Accordingly it is possible for the arrangement (14) to be mechanically set in a relatively rough manner and fine adjustment may be performed by changing the reference value electronically.
