In the EnOcean Teach-In process, the transmitting device sends a special telegram containing its EEP and Device ID; the receiver memorises this information so it can decode later telegrams correctly and bind the sender to a specific action.

Teach-In is the self-commissioning workflow that replaces software binding. First the receiver (actuator) is placed into Teach mode, usually via a physical button. The transmitter (a switch or sensor) then sends a Teach-In telegram carrying its EEP and 32-bit Device ID. The receiver stores the pair (Device ID = EEP, mapped to action) in non-volatile memory, and every subsequent telegram from that sender triggers the bound action. Unlike KNX, where the binding of Group Objects to Group Addresses is performed in ETS, EnOcean Teach-In happens entirely in the field with no PC tool required.

Always log the Device ID of every taught device on a paper plan; if the receiver loses its memory after a firmware reset, you will need that list to rebuild the bindings in the right order.
