User-Friendly Livox Viewer: Livox Viewer is a computer software designed for Livox LiDAR sensors and Livox Hub. Users can check real-time point cloud data of all the Livox LiDAR sensors connected to a computer and also record the point cloud data to view offline or for future application. The simple interface makes it easy to use.

Laser Wavelength < 0.0003% Close Proximity Blind Zone: Livox Avia cannot precisely detect objects which are less than 1 m away. The point cloud data may be distorted to a varying extent when the target object is within a range of 1 to 2 meters.
2. Conversion Cable 4. Locating Hole To connect the Avia to the Livox Converter 2.0, The locating hole makes it easy for users to find users can use this cable or a cable of their own. the correct location to mount a fixed support Refer to the Cables section for more information.
12 11 Conversion Cable The Livox Avia includes a conversion cable. To connect the Livox Avia to the Livox Converter 2.0, users can use this cable or a cable of their own. LiDAR Connector M12 Aviation Connector (Female) Figure 2.1.1 Conversion cable...
The Avia cables package includes a power cable and sync cable. Power Cable Connect “A” to the power port of the Livox Converter 2.0 and connect “B” to an external DC power supply. The connector type of this power cable is MOLEX 105307-1202.
Reserved Undefined White Ethernet Port The Livox Converter 2.0 supports a 100BASE-TX standard RJ45 Ethernet port. The Avia uses two twisted pairs to send and receive data. Mounting the Livox Avia Effective Field of View (FOV) Range As shown below, the Avia has a FOV of 70.4° horizontally and 77.2° vertically. When mounting the sensor, make sure that the FOV is not blocked by any objects.
Avia can be connected to a computer directly. 2. To connect to the dynamic IP address, make sure the Avia is switched to dynamic IP mode by using Livox Viewer or the Livox SDK. In dynamic address mode, the addresses are assigned to the Avia using dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP).

If more than six Avia LiDAR sensors are required, use a kilo mega router. The broadcast number for each LiDAR sensor can be viewed in the Device Manager of Livox Viewer or the Livox SDK. For the Avia, the broadcast number will be its serial number ending in an additional “1”.
The origin O' of IMU coordinate is defined in the point cloud coordinates as (-41.65, -23.26, 28.40) (Unit: mm). Output Data The output information of Livox Avia LiDAR sensors includes point cloud data and IMU data. Both point cloud data and IMU data have timestamp and status codes, while point cloud data also has the target reflectivity, coordinates, and tag information.

IEEE 1588-2008: IEEE 1588-2008 is the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) enabling precise synchronization of clocks in measurement and control systems by Ethernet. Livox LiDAR sensors, as the ordinary clock in the PTP, only support UDP/IPV4 for PTP. Livox LiDAR sensors support the following message events: Sync, Follow_up, Delay_req, Delay_resp.
PPS signal status. Status codes can be viewed in Livox Viewer or the Livox SDK. Refer to the Livox Viewer User Manual for more information about how to check status codes.
Multiple Return Mode The Avia can be set to Multiple Return mode using Livox Viewer or the Livox SDK. The Avia can generate a point cloud of up to three returns in Multiple Return mode, which has a point rate of 720,000 points per second.
Storage, Transportation, and Maintenance Storage The storage temperature range for the Livox Avia is from -40° to 85° C (-40° to 185° F). Keep Avia LiDAR sensors in a dry and dust-free environment. • Make sure Avia LiDAR sensors are not exposed to environments containing poisonous or corrosive gases or materials.
• Make sure the voltage and power supply is suitable. The voltage should be between 10 and 15 V. If a Livox Converter 2.0 is in use, the supported voltage range of the external power source is from 9 to 30 V.
