During the teach-in process, the switching thresholds for all beams are individually
adjusted for the sensing range and the ambient conditions.
A teach-in process must be carried out when commissioning, when changing operating
mode or performance options, and at regular intervals in general.

7.4.1.3 Teach-in required
Table 79: Teach-in required
Index Access Data type Description
42h R BOOL This parameter is used to read whether a
teach-in is required.
0 = no teach-in required
1 = teach-in required
7.4.1.4 Teach-in with blanking
Table 80: Teach-in with blanking
Index Access Data type Description
43h R/W BOOL This parameter activates beam blanking for
each teach-in.
0 = no blanking
1 = with blanking
To show the blanked beams again, proceed as follows:
1. Remove all objects from the detection area.
2. Activate the Blank blocked beams function.
3. Activate the Teach-in with blanking function.
4. Perform a teach-in.
