Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF602 Series Figure 2 8.2. Overall demands for mounting The sensor is positioned so that the object under control has to be placed in the working range of the sensor. In addition, no foreign objects should be allowed to stay on the path of the incident and reflected laser radiation.
Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF602 Series Configuration parameters The nature of operation of the sensor depends on its configuration parameters, which can be changed only by transmission of commands through serial port RS232 or RS485. The basic parameters are as follows: 10.1.
Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF602 Series arrives. The above-mentioned parameters determine the method of the readout of the result form the buffer. Note 2. If the bit-serial interface is used to receive the result, the time required for data transmission at selected data transmission rate should be taken into account in the case where small sampling period intervals are used.
Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF602 Series In the "Reset of the Ethernet packets counter" mode, connection AL input to the ground potential resets the counter (Fig. 3.3)*. *Note. A low level of the AL line is holding for 100 s or more, and a high level of the AL line is holding for 100 s.
Description of RS232 and RS485 interfaces Data exchange with the sensor is carried out over the RIFTEK or Modbus RTU protocols in binary format or in the ASCII format. The protocol and the data format are selected using the parametrization program.
Note. The network data communication protocol assumes the presence of a ‘master’ in the net, which can be a computer or other information-gathering device, and from 1 to 127 ‘slaves’ (RF602 Series sensors) which support the protocol. Each ‘slave’ is assigned a unique network identification code – a device address.
Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF602 Series 11.7.2. Answer 'Answer' is the data burst that can be transmitted by ‘slave’ in the course of the session. All messages with a message burst contain 1 in the most significant digit. Data in a message are transferred in tetrads.
