contents Hidden-charm pentaquarks were first experimentally detected by LHCb in 2019, one of which is the exotic $P_{c\bar{c}}(4312)^{+}$ state. The nature of this state remains uncertain which may be attributed to the proximity of this observed enhancement to the meson-baryon thresholds. In this study, we introduce a coupled-channel approach using three-channel separable potential model to account for near-threshold effects on the observed signal. In particular, we assign $Σ_c^+\bar{D}^0$ and $Σ_c^{++}D^-$ as higher-mass channels for $P_{c \bar{c}}(4312)^+$ state. Moreover, this allows us to propose four pole configurations, where either a bound state or virtual state pole were placed near the higher-mass thresholds. Using this scheme, we study the near-threshold effects on the transition of different pole configurations across the unphysical Riemann sheets and examine their effects on the amplitude line shape. We found out that $P_{c \bar{c}}(4312)^+$ state may be interpreted as a virtual state below the $Σ_c^+\bar{D}^0$ which is consistent with our initial modeling assumptions. Our result also conforms with the previous analysis done by Joint Physics Analysis Center (JPAC) \cite{Fernandez-Ramirez:2019koa}, which leans toward similar interpretation. This may indicate that a model-dependent framework employing a relatively simple model, such as a separable potential, can somehow complement with some of the widely used parameterizations.
