  • Page 4: Safety Precautions

    Triangulation Laser Sensors, RF605 Series Safety precautions Use supply voltage and interfaces indicated in the sensor specifications. In connection/disconnection of cables, the sensor power must be switched off. Do not use sensors in locations close to powerful light sources. To obtain stable results, wait about 20 minutes after sensor activation to achieve uniform sensor warm-up.

  • Page 9: Sampling Mode

    Triangulation Laser Sensors, RF605 Series The measurement frequency depends on the integration time of the re- Note 1. ceiving array. Maximum frequency (2 kHz) is achieved for the integration time ≤106 μs (minimum possible integration time is 10 μs). As the integration time increases above 106 μs, the result updating time increases proportionally.

    Triangulation Laser Sensors, RF605 Series 10.8. Number of averaged values/time of averaging This parameter specifies the number of source results to be averaged for deriv- ing the output value or time of the averaging . The use of averaging makes it possible to reduce the output noise and increase the sensor resolution.
