If the defined number is not reached, the digital output remains unchanged. This may,
for example, increase the reliability in the application if the distance value fluctuates
around the selected switching point. This will not affect the cycle time or the output
rate.

Measuring direction
The function changes the plus/minus sign of the relative distance value depending on
the direction from the center of the measuring range.
•
Positive: Distances which are larger than the set zero position of the device are
assigned a plus sign. Smaller distances are assigned a minus sign accordingly.
•
Negative: Distances which are larger than the set zero position of the device are
assigned a minus sign. Smaller distances are assigned a plus sign accordingly.

Measured value offset
The measured value offset moves the zero point of the device within the maximum
measuring range. This makes it possible to measure absolute distance changes in rela‐
tion to an individual reference distance.
NOTE
In the case of all offset settings, the current gradient of the analog characteristic curve
remains unchanged.
Setting the measured value offset
A manual measured value offset may be set. The distance value that the distance sen‐
sor outputs and that is evaluated in the switching functions takes into account the set
offset. Only absolute measured values are transferred via IO-Link communication.
