6. Sensor Settings
This section describes the settings that can be made directly on the sensor via the control panel. These set-
tings differ between the versions with digital switching outputs and those with analog output.
6.1 Versions with Switching Outputs
P1PY101, P1PY102, P1PY103, P1PY104, P2PY109, P1PY111, P1PY113
Teach-In
Three different teach-in modes are available. They can be set via IO-Link (see section
. Foreground teach-in is used by default.
Teach-In for A1
1. Adjust the sensor so that the light spot strikes the object to be taught in.
2. Press and hold the teach-in key for 2 seconds until LED A1 starts to flash.
3. Release the teach-in key.
4. The distance is taught in, and LED A1 flashes in order to confirm successful
teach-in.
Teach-In for A2
1. Adjust the sensor so that the light spot strikes the object to be taught in.
2. Press and hold the teach-in key for 5 seconds until LED A2 starts to flash.
3. Release the teach-in key.
4. The distance is taught in, and LED A2 flashes in order to confirm successful
teach-in.
P2PY109: in default setting A2 can’t be set
NOTE!
If teach-in is conducted without an object or if the object is too far from the sensor, the
switching distance is set to the end of the setting range, and LED A1/A2 flashes at a rate of
8 Hz. The same applies if the object is too close, but in this case, the switching distance is
set to the beginning of the setting range.
