  • Page 74: Protocol Structure

    Integrating the LPS in the process control (Ethernet) Protocol structure The protocol consists of the Header (30 bytes) followed by the User data. The protocol is used both in command mode when transmitting commands and when acknowledging sensor commands as well as in measure mode.
  • Page 75: 10.2.2 Packet Number

    Integrating the LPS in the process control (Ethernet) 10.2.2 Packet number The packet number serves internal maintenance purposes of the manufacturer. 10.2.3 Transaction number In measure mode, 0x0000 is always displayed here. In command mode, the command acknowledgment of the sensor contains the command number of the command that is answered.
  • Page 76: 10.2.5 Encoder High / Low

    X-data (command number 0x5858), each with 376 values of 2 bytes, are transmitted. With the LPS 36HI/EN, values 241 … 376 are set to 0 (compatibility). The resolution is 1/10mm. The Z- and X-data packets have the same scan number; this should be checked in the control.
  • Page 77 -7000 … +7000 range. Invalid measurement values have a Z- and X-value of 0. If an LPS 36HI/EN is used in a system instead of an LPS 36 without the establishment of connection being changed (Standard-Connect), it behaves compatibly to the stan- dard LPS 36.
  • Page 78: Ethernet Commands

    The response of the LPS also corresponds to the "little-endian" standard. For further information, see the note in Chapter 10.2. Note! If the LPS is operated in command mode, the LPS transmits no data (useful for operation with PLC controls). In measure mode, commands Connect to Sensor, Disconnect from Sensor, Enter Command mode, Ethernet Trigger and Ethernet Activation can be processed (is acknowledged with 'Ack'=0x4141).

  • Page 103: Maintenance

    General maintenance information Usually, the Light section sensor does not require any maintenance by the operator. Cleaning In the event of dust buildup, clean the LPS with a soft cloth; use a cleaning agent (commer- cially available glass cleaner) if necessary. Note! Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as thinner or acetone for cleaning the Light sec- tion sensors.
