Overview

Overview
Using the Ethernet connector or RS-232C connector of the Controller, you can
communicate digitally with external devices such as a personal computer or
programmable controller. Compared to linear output, you can obtain high resolution, highly
stable measurement data.
Communication with external devices using Ethernet or RS-232C is performed in RUN or
TEACH mode. Communication cannot be performed in FUN mode. Also, when a system
error occurs, the Sensor Controller receives a command externally, but does not execute
the setting commands.

The Controller can be connected to a personal computer, and the settings can be changed
from the personal computer using Smart Monitor ZW. In addition, the measurement can be
monitored on the personal computer
