    The magnet is already aligned to get AGC values in the middle of the AGC range. Note: If the magnetic field seen by the AS5601 would be below 8mT, the output is disconnected and permanent angle programming would not be possible. The AB quadrature interface is not updated as long as the magnet is away.
