Understood- thanks for clarifying!

hmm.............. with absolutely no offense intended - I don't think that your response is correct. With Leuchte-programming, there are certain Leuchte-commands that operate "when the light sensor kicks-in" and there are other Leuchte-commands that are independent of the light sensor. Whether these Leuchte-commands are dependent on the light sensor, or not - is NOT determined by the illumination level (i.e. the Dimmwert value).

OK - let's do it your way.
However, I suggest an alternative approach to your Lichtfunktion values:- currently you have programmed the active Lichtfunktion channels in the 4 x Leuchte-sets in your table like this:
- Lichtfunktion A > Standlicht allgemein (Schlusslicht; Positionslicht; Begrenzungslicht)
- Lichtfunktion G > Tagfahrlicht
With this set-up, the lamps that are controlled by these Leuchte-sets are illuminated whenever the ignition is turned-ON - this is irrespective of the status of the light sensor. A better (read "more elegant") method to achieve this same outcome is to use the Leuchte-command, Klemme 15 ohne Nachlauf.
As I'm certain you already know given your German language background, Klemm 15 = Clamp 15, or more appropriately using the terms of vehicle industry Standard DIN 72552 - Terminal 15 (T15). T15 is defined in DIN 72552 as a battery-rail voltage that is active whenever the ignition is turned-ON. So, this single Leuchte-command can be used to provide the same lighting effect in this case!
So- try this:
Left-side Parking-Light Lamps
Lasttyp > 43 - allgemeine LED
Lichtfunktion A > Blinken links Hellphase
Lichtfunktion B > nicht aktiv
Dimmwert AB > 0
Lichtansteuerung HD AB > Always
Lichtfunktion C > Klemme 15 ohne Nachlauf
Lichtfunktion D > nicht aktiv
Dimmwert CD > 127
Dimming Direction CD > maximize
Lichtfunktion E > Blinken links Dunkelphase
Lichtfunktion F > nicht aktiv
Dimmwert EF > 26
Dimming Direction EF > minimize
Lichtfunktion G > nicht aktiv
Lichtfunktion H > nicht aktiv
Dimmwert GH > 0
Dimming Direction GH > maximize
Right-side Parking-Light Lamps
Lasttyp > 43 - allgemeine LED
Lichtfunktion A > Blinken rechts Hellphase
Lichtfunktion B > nicht aktiv
Dimmwert AB > 0
Lichtansteuerung HD AB > Always
Lichtfunktion C > Klemme 15 ohne Nachlauf
Lichtfunktion D > nicht aktiv
Dimmwert CD > 127
Dimming Direction CD > maximize
Lichtfunktion E > Blinken rechts Dunkelphase
Lichtfunktion F > nicht aktiv
Dimmwert EF > 26
Dimming Direction EF > minimize
Lichtfunktion G > nicht aktiv
Lichtfunktion H > nicht aktiv
Dimmwert GH > 0
Dimming Direction GH > maximize
Notes:
- the dimmed illumination level in the off-part of the blink cycle is determined by Dimmwert EF. Adjust this value as desired
- To make the Parking-Light lamps "counter-blink", swap Lichtfunktion A and Lichtfunktion E values

Please don't PM to ask questions about coding, or vehicle repairs. The better place to deal with these matters is on-line, in the forum proper. That way you get the benefit of the expertise of the wider forum! Thank you.
