UDP

The sensor is equipped with a UDP interface, which makes it possible to stream measurement
values as well as profile and intensity data from the sensor. UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a
connectionless and unsecured protocol that is based on the Internet Protocol (IP) network pro-
tocol.
You can carry out the following settings via the web interface of the sensor:
Desired measurement values and data.
n
IP address to which the measurement values and data should be transferred.

INFO
If you want to stream data from several sensors to the same target, you must configure different
target ports. If you have problems receiving data in your user-defined application, please check
whether the firewall could block incoming UDP packets.
In the following example, only profile data is issued (no measurement results). The "IP address"
is the address of the adapter or the port where the sensor is connected. Please follow the in-
structions in
or port.

The data transferred via the UDP consists of a header and a body, whereby the body varies de-
pending on the transferred data. A UDP packet can be distributed over several frames. If only
measurement results and no profile data are transferred, only one frame is issued at a time. If
the sensor transmits a profile divided into several packets, the first frame provides the total num-
ber of the related packets in the FrameCount field.
