4.10.4 Teach height area
With the
Teach height area
function, it is possible to teach in up to four height areas, e.g. for height moni

toring or sorting packets. In many cases, this reduces time for programming.
• A maximum of four height areas are available.
• A height area is automatically defined using an object.
When teaching a height area, all free beams above or below the object are combined into one height
area. Therefore, the object cannot be located in the center of the measurement field length; the first
or last beam must be interrupted.
