Mounting GTS - how close is close?

Okay, based on trying to mount our GTS next to Andy Mark transmission gears, it appears that our GTS has to be touching the gear in order to count accurately.

Yes, we have the fixed GTS with the right parts and it is wired correctly because we are getting readings. We're just worried that we will chew our sensor alive.

The range (according to specs) is from 0.5mm to 3.0mm to get a reading and yet we can't get a reading unless the sensor is close to 0.1mm away from the gear.

All help is appreciated.
