Although the laser output is low looking directly into the laser beam must be avoided. Due to the visible light beam eye protection is ensured by the natural blink reflex. The housing of the optical sensors optoNCDT1800/1801 may only be opened by the manufacturer. For repair and service purposes the sensors must always be sent to the manufacturer.

Humidity: 5 - 95 % (no condensation) Installation The optoNCDT1800/1801 is an optical sensor for measurements with micrometer accuracy. Make sure it is handled carefully when installing and operating. MICRO-EPSILON recommends the use of protective housings if the sensor operates in a dirty environment or higher ambient temperature.

- Moving average averaging are saved after switching off. - Recursive average - Median The purpose of averaging is to: - Improve the resolution - Eliminate signal spikes - „Smooth out“ the signal. > optoNCDT1800, 1801...
1) When the number of averaging is changed, an error will continue to be sent until the required number of measurement values for the selected averaging count have been reached (logged). For the optoNCDT1800/1801 and a number of averaging of 128, the maximum time required is 26 ms (128 x 0.2 ms = 25.6 ms)
When the controller is switched on again the next time, the last selected averaging method will be indicated during booting by the momentary illumination of the LEDs “AVG1” and “AVG2”: Tab. 6.3: LEDs display the averaging type during booting optoNCDT1800, 1801...
However, it requires extremely long transient recovery times for steps in measurement values. The recursive average shows low-pass behaviour. The output frequency stays constant at 5 kHz / 2.5 kHz for the measuring range of 500 mm. Standard values for N: 1, 4, 32, 128 (window width). optoNCDT1800, 1801...

(see Chapter 6.3. Zero-Point) • Pressing and holding the Zero/Reset key for longer (> 5 secs) will cancel the zero shift (offset) and set the number of averaging to N = 1 (for the median N = 3). optoNCDT1800, 1801...

Serial Interface (Option) MICRO-EPSILON Serial Interface (Option) The optoNCDT1800/1801 controller can be operated with a PC if the ssystem has a digital interface (RS232 or RS485). This manual describes the communication protocol between a PC and the sensor optoNCDT1800/1801. RS232 IMPORTANT! The RS232 module uses the RS232 standard (EIA/TIA-232-E resp.
MICRO-EPSILON The data word consists of two consecutive bytes which are transmitted in series without a identity bit. Use the IF2004 interface card (available from MICRO-EPSILON) for communication with a PC. Interface card and controller are connected with the PC1800-3/10/RS485 interface cable (available from MICRO-EPSILON). The interface card combines the both bytes from the data word and storages it as a 16 bit value in the FIFO.
