Defining the measurement cycle time
The measurement cycle time defines the intervals at which measurements are made.
The measurement cycle time designates the processing time of the distance sensor's
measuring core.
A larger measurement cycle time results in an increase in the measuring range of
the sensor and a reduction in signal noise. The sensor´s response time, however,
increases. Shortening the measurement cycle time results in a faster response time.
However, this increases the signal noise and decreases the measuring range,
.

Defining the distance offset
The distance value the distance sensor outputs on its interface and the distance value
that is evaluated in the switching functions is the same as the actual distance between
the distance sensor and measuring object plus the distance offset:
Output distance value = measured distance value x measuring dir distance
