Yes, all targets and sensors that interact with each other have to be assigned to the same manager.

Here's a complete code example:

import viz
import vizact
import vizproximity

# Physical Objects
ball = viz.addChild('beachball.osgb',pos=[-1,0.2,0])
avatar = viz.addAvatar('vcc_male2.cfg',pos=[1,0,0])
avatar.setEuler([180,0,0])
avatar.state(5)

# Proximity Management
manager = vizproximity.Manager()
manager.setDebug(viz.ON)

sensor = vizproximity.Sensor(vizproximity.Sphere(0.5, center=[0,0,0]), ball)
manager.addSensor(sensor)

target = vizproximity.Target(avatar)
manager.addTarget(target)

def healthLoss(e):
	if e.target == target:
		print "Sensor Entered"
		
manager.onEnter(sensor, healthLoss)

# Demo
def update():
	if viz.key.isDown(viz.KEY_LEFT):
		avatar.setPosition([-2*viz.elapsed(),0,0],viz.REL_GLOBAL)
	elif viz.key.isDown(viz.KEY_RIGHT):
		avatar.setPosition([2*viz.elapsed(),0,0],viz.REL_GLOBAL)
		
vizact.ontimer(0,update)

viz.MainView.setPosition([0,1,-4])
viz.go()

Use arrow keys to move the avatar to the ball.
