OPT3101 Calibration

Hello there,

Did I understand correctly that the sensor automatically calibrates for an object that is 10cm away as soon as a voltage is applied (it is switched on)? So does it make sense to switch it on and place it exactly 10 cm away from a white wall in my case so that the calibration is more accurate?

I read something about that in the product description for the Sensor

Hello.

To clarify, the OPT3101 distance sensor does not automatically calibrate when it is powered on. It loads calibration settings from a calibration done here (with targets 100 mm away) during its manufacturing process.

Thank you for the response :slight_smile:
