Offset

The offset enables the user to set the zero point for the distance
measurement to a specific point outside the LDS10A. This is helpful
for direct measurements of lengths or deviations starting in front or
behind the LDS10A.

The offset has direct influence on all other parameters
which use the measured distance value.

Data Format: Distance in mm as decimal number

Range: -65535 … 65536
