Dear User, You are advised to carefully read this User Manual before powering on the LLD-150-PROF2 Laser distance measuring sensor for the first time. This is necessary to ensure that you will be able to utilize all the capabilities and features which your new acquisition provides.
LLD-150-PROF2 Manual General General The LLD-150-PROF2 are Laser sensors to measure distances from 0.1 m to more than 100 m with pinpoint accuracy. A given target can be clearly identified with the help of a red Laser sighting LLD-150-PROF2 point.

If no potential equalization is possible, then mount the LLD-150- PROF2 isolated from the carrier base (use nylon screws and washers). Connect the screen with mass to the cable end. This way of assembly should also be used when installing the LLD-150-PROF2 inside vehicles. Page 18...

We recommend the use of the following programme: LDMTOOL (Version 4.5 or higher). When turning on the LLD-150-PROF2, it must be properly installed at the designated operation site, aimed at the target, and kept in a stable position. Targets to be measured (e.g. machine or system components) should preferably have a light and homogeneous surface.
Parameters and Control via RS232 Parameters and Control via RS232 General It is easy to configure the LLD-150-PROF2 by using a PC, as it provides a wide range of operating functions. Configuration should take place prior to connecting to the Profibus.

DT mode can be chosen for distance measurement of different kinds of surfaces (varying reflectance). In this type of distance tracking mode, the LLD-150-PROF2 uses internal algorithms to continuously evaluate the quality of the Laser radiation signal that is coming back. This may cause longer measuring times in the case of poor reflectance or sudden jumps in distance.
DF mode allows a measurement that is triggered by an external trigger pulse. Initially, after selecting this mode, the operator does not receive any response. As soon as the trigger pulse has been detected, the LLD-150-PROF2 will send data and switches to digital and/or analog output.
LLD-150-PROF2 Manual Parameters and Control via RS232 DM – distance measurement Input parameter SD, SE, SF, ST, OF Output RS232/RS232, digital switching output, analog output DM mode triggers a single measurement (single shot) TP – internal temperature [°C] TP queries the value of the inner LLD temperature.
Measuring time is directly conditional on the selected measuring mode. As a general rule, one may say: the poorer the reflectance of the surface of a LLD-150-PROF2 will require particular target, the more time the to determine the distance with specified accuracy. For example, if error message E15 is output because of poor reflectance and insufficient time to measure, this latter setting must be increased.
An exception there from is zero-value. In this case, the LLD-150-PROF2 automatically picks the smallest possible time value for measurement! LLD-150-PROF2 comes factory-set with ST = 0.

Interface Connection Profibus DP General The LLD-150-PROF2 is operated as a standard Profibus slave. It becomes operational with master 13 byte entry data: 2x 8 bit error information, 16 bit measurement value counter, 32 bit time stamp, 32 bit distance and 8 bit internal temperature are available.

To turn off the Laser and switch the LLD-150-PROF2 to standby operation, Bit 7 should be set at 1. The remaining bits have no meaning. If all bits are set at 0, then the LLD-150-PROF2 will operate in the DT mode (Distance Tracking, continuous measurement).
LLD-150-PROF2 Manual Interface Connection The commands of the serial interface are described in chapter 8 starting page 21. The data output format is determined by parameter SD (display format), see page 26. Output Format Ethernet and RS232 The output format on the serial interface is selected by the command SD.

LLD-150-PROF2 Manual Interface Connection In the case of a negative AH, the output switching pattern will be inverse. Figure 8 : Digital switching output behavior with positive and negative hysteresis Example: A moving object is assumed to be monitored within a window of 10 m to 11 m with a hysteresis of 0.2 m.
The distance measurement will always be started with a delay of 5 ms in addition with the programmed trigger delay time. Having done this, the LLD-150-PROF2 has to be switched to trigger mode (see 8.6, DF – distance measurement with external trigger).
