# Train Feature

1. From the Feature Type drop-down list, select Pattern.

2. Click , the Pattern tab opens.

3. Click to set the train region over the pattern that you will use as the training model. Ensure that the train region covers only the feature of the pattern.

4. Click on the right top corner of the display to confirm the train region.

5. The icon replaces the train region, which indicates the location and angular orientation of the found pattern.

6. (Optional) Click to set the search region. Ensure that search region covers the areas in the image where you expect to see the pattern. By default, the search region covers the entire field of view.

   Tip: To increase the performance of the tool, create a smaller search region. A smaller search region can increase the processing speed and reduce the cycle time.

7. Click on the right top corner of the display to confirm the search region.

8. After you configure the pattern settings, load images and adjust the parameters, as necessary, to compensate for your expected ranges of variations.

9. Click to exit the Recipe step. The sensor is now set up and ready for the sensor calibration.

After finishing this initial setup with the AlignSight software, you need to complete the sensor calibration and golden pose training. To perform these tasks, you need to use the command interface of AlignSight with external controllers, such as PLC or Robot.
