6.2.1 Teach-In
Teach-In is not possible during the soft start phase (which can last for an extend-
ed period due to active current limiting).
The determined Teach-In values are also transferred when the setup data of one
power controller is transferred to another.
"Manual"
teach-in
To ensure that the load ratios are recorded precisely for later operation, only per-
form the Teach-In process at a load current of at least 20 % of the nominal value!

"Automatically
once"

"Automatic (cy-
clically)"

Depending on the configuration of the parameter "Load monit. Teach-In",
Teach-In (i.e. determination of the load measured values in the OK state) is ei-
ther performed once automatically after power ON or automatically and cycli-
cally, repeatedly every minute, or manually.
For "Manual Teach-In", the power controller must be told once after the work-
ing point has been reached that it is now to perform the Teach-In.
This can be performed in the operating level or in manual mode.

v Chapter 6.3.2 "Configuring Teach-In (prerequisite for Teach-In in manual
mode)"
In this variant of Teach-In, the Teach-In values are then permanently saved.
Teach-In does not need to be performed again
when the power controller is switched off and on again.
Teach-In can be repeated whenever necessary. The old Teach-In values are
then overwritten by the new ones.
The Teach-In values are only deleted if the load monitoring Teach-In parameter
is explicitly configured to "Manual Teach-In" or when the default setting is ap-
plied. Teach-In is not affected when other parameters are reconfigured.
If there has not yet been a correct Teach-In process, the message "Teach-In
missing" appears on the display as a reminder.
"Manual Teach-In" can only be performed on the device itself, not via the set-
up program.
"Automatically once" means that the Teach-In values are temporarily saved af-
ter each power ON. This setting is suitable only for heating elements with a
temperature coefficient TC ≈ 1.
When the power controller is disconnected from the mains voltage, the Teach-
In values are deleted again. After another power ON, load monitoring therefore
remains inactive until a new Teach-In process is performed.
To ensure that the load ratios are recorded precisely for later operation, Teach-
In is only performed with at least 30 % of the output level.
"Automatically (cyclically)" means that the Teach-In values are temporarily
saved again at intervals of one minute. This setting is particularly suitable for
SiC heating elements as in this case the resistance in the load point changes
