Rain sensing wiper - sensitivity adjustments via Forscan?

[WildBlue]

I recently added rain sensing wipers to my 2024 Flash via the Infotainment system harness and Ford rain sensor and the Forscan settings. They work fine, but I feel that the system isn't as sensitive as I would like it to be. Even at the highest "sensitivity" setting on the stalk can still leave too much rain on the windshield between wipes. Is someone aware of any Forscan settings to increase the system's sensitivity to rain?

Not sure about changing in FORScan but if you get the washer fluid with rain-x in it you will need the sensitivity on low. It beads the rain up needing fewer wipes. In a light to medium rain I don’t even need wipers when going highway speeds.

Yeah something sounds off because I rarely if ever move my setting above the first notch. In fact sometimes that seems almost to sensitive.

I feel like the sensor or their detection algorithm needs some work. I was driving in the rain yesterday and had to keep manually hitting the wipers because it wasn't clearing the rain as it built up. Then this morning while driving into work in a light mist it was just going crazy over every little spec. Never took it off the highest setting.
