5  Teach Commands 
By using teach commands, the setpoints of the switching signal channels SSC1 and SSC2 or of the Analog 
output can be defined by teach-in the position of the object or reference. 
Next to teach-by-value which can be applied as described in section 4.3.1, using teach commands makes it 
easy to compensate individual variations such as mechanical and mounting tolerances. 
The teach-in procedures are described more detailed in section 5.2 (Static). 
The switching behavior of each switching signal channel depends on the configuration (Switching Mode, 
Channel Logic, …) described in section 4.3.2.
