Teach-in / teach
Teaching offers the possibility to adjust certain parameters based on the current measurement situation.
Focus here is primarily on settings that affect the output functions, i.e., analog output and the switching out-
put(s).
The teaching action is triggered in the following ways:
• Via the multifunction input when setting the input function to
Teach
(see chapter 7.1.4 "Teaching the
output functions via the multifunction input")
• Via IO-Link system commands (see chapter 7.1.5 "Teaching the output functions via the IO-Link sys-
• Special teach via the device menu (OLED display and control buttons)
When completed, each successful teach returns a so-called teach point (TP), which is formed by averaging
multiple individual measurements.
• Prerequisite for successfully teaching is a minimum number of valid measurement values. Objects that
are marginally dark and/or distant objects can increase the teach time.
• The teachable areas are limited by model.
• A teach point may only be located within the measurement range described in the table in order for an
assignment to the respective, likewise limited parameters to be possible.

Teaching the output functions via the multifunction input
NOTICE
The information in this chapter only applies for devices that are equipped with a multifunction in-
put on pin 5 (ODS9…/
LAK
-…).
To teach, a teach signal is applied to the multifunction input (pin 5). The duration of the teach signal (low
level on the teach input) determines the teach-in function.
