  • Page 5: General Information

    DSS USER MANUAL ENERAL INFORMATION _____________________________________________________________________________________ Load controller (axle load sensor) eurosens DSS (fig. 1.1) is used to determine the axle load of a vehicle by measuring the microdeformations of the load-bearing elements, such as an axle or suspension arms.

  • Page 6: Specification Of Eurosens Dss

    IP 67 Dimensions, mm 65x45x26 Measurement error of eurosens DSS depends on the microstrain of the element the sensor is fixed on. The more the load-bearing element is deformed under load, the more sensitive the sensor is to axle load...

    1.01 eurosens DSS USER MANUAL 5.2 C ALIBRATION OF SENSOR 5.2.1 S ENSOR RESET Sensor calibration allows you to set the calculation table for conversion of the primary sensor values (detector values) into the output values of the sensor.
  • Page 17 1.01 eurosens DSS USER MANUAL • After reset procedure the initial detector value is set to 10000 and default sensor calibration table looks as shown in fig. 5.4. • Default calibration is linear (scaled 1:1). The output value of the sensor is equal to the internal detector value.

  • Page 18: Sensor Calibration On Server Side

    1.01 eurosens DSS USER MANUAL 5.2.2 S ENSOR CALIBRATION ON SERVER SIDE With the "default" calibration stored in the sensor, the conversion of the detector value into kilograms must be carried out on the server side. • To create calibration table at server side there is no need to visit a vehicle and measure real axle loads with direct connection to sensors.
  • Page 19 1.01 eurosens DSS USER MANUAL • add a new line to the calibration table by pressing the button "Calibrate"; • make at least 2 records for an empty and fully loaded vehicle. It is possible to fill in the calibration table in several steps by saving intermediate calibration values to the sensor.
