Hall Effect Magnet Snow Plow Cable Saver Adjustment

I’m installing the Glacier "Can Am" 60 inch snow plow on my Outlander. The quick attach upgrade comes with a Hall effect cable saver switch. It is suppose to shut off the winch when lifting the plow so you don’t stretch the heck out of the cable.

How sensitive is this switch? Does it need maybe a quarter to half an inch of movement before the winch quits? Or does it react the split second the magnet is in close proximity to the sensor?

I ask as I am exploring better locations to mount the Hall effect switch. Some of the guys on these Forums have come up with creative solutions to winch cable overloads while lifting the snow plow.
