Distance and Thickness Measurement with Web Page Display
Align the sensor vertically to the target object.
Then, move the sensor (or the target) closer, until you more or less reach the start of measuring range for your sen-
sor.
Once the object is within the sensor's measuring range, the Range LED (green or yellow) on the front of the controller
will light up. Or, observe the FFT signal.

Opening the Measurement chart > Meas displays the following web page. The diagram starts automatically when
the web page is called up. The diagram in the large graph window to the right displays the value-time graph.

The LED visualizes the status of the transmission of measured values:
- green: transmission of measured values is running.
- yellow: waiting for data in trigger mode
- gray: transmission of measured values stopped
Data queries are controlled by using the Play/Pause/Stop/Save buttons of the measured values that were trans-
mitted. Stop stops the diagram; data selection and zoom function are still possible. Pause interrupts recording.
Save opens the Windows selection dialog for file name and storage location to save the last 10,000 values in a CSV
file (separation with semicolon).
Click the button
Changes only take effect after clicking the Save settings button.

In the window on the left, the signals can be enabled or disabled both during and after the measurement. Inactive
graphs are gray. Click on the check mark to add them. The changes take effect when saving the settings.
