7 Sensor filter Functioning The second index (j) is used for differentiation in case of several subsystems. A subsystem is described by equations, see below. The device uses 4 2nd order subsystems, resulting in an 8th order Butterworth filter. Figure 9 is here the input signal, Y is the filter output and simultaneously the input of another subsystem.
8 Preset function restriction for the 2-dimensional inclinometer Preset function restriction for the 2- dimensional inclinometer Due to the limitation of the max. measuring range to +/- 85.00°, no preset function is available for a measuring range of > +/-70.00°. If a measuring range <...
9 Timeout in programming mode Timeout in programming mode If the inclinometer is switched to programming mode by actuating teach inputs 1 & 2 but no further function is selected, the inclinometer returns automatically to normal operation after 60 seconds. The inclinometer can also be switched back to normal operation by switching the supply voltage off and on again.

10 Scaling behavior of the analog measuring range of the 1-dimensional inclinometer 10. Scaling behavior of the analog measuring range of the 1-dimensional inclinometer In the 1-dimensional inclinometer, the direction of movement of the measuring axis during the scaling process of a new analog measuring range is crucial. The lowest analog measurement value is always assigned to the defined starting position (example 0 …...
