Teaching Colors - MICRO-EPSILON colorSENSOR CFO Series Instruction Manual

Operation
5.4.2.1
One or more colors can be learned for each recognition group, see Chap. 5.4.5.3. The recognition groups
are differentiated according to their output coding. The 1-out-of-N codes are easily accessible via the key-
board (only one of the output lines is active). Although the subsequent binary codes can be scrolled though
individually, the large number of possible combinations (up to 256 for the CFO200) makes it more convenient
to use an auxiliary program or the HTTP-API for this purpose.
Color tolerance adaptation, see Chap.

If the multi-teach function is activated, see Chap. 5.4.5.3, you can continue teaching colors as long as
the TEACH is held down. In this case the first color is learned after reaching the long actuation time
and each additional color is learned in rhythm with the effective scanning rate, however a maximum of
100 colors per second. During this operation the LED in the key flashes momentarily (100 ms) each time
a new color is learned.
