CHAPTER 2. USBOARD-USS5
2.4. PARAMETER SET
Bit
Meaning
0
Enable CAN extended id (default 0)
1
Enable CAN termination of USBoard-USS5-IP (default 0)
2
Enable analog input (default 0)
3
Enable legacy data format (default 0)
4
Warning relay blocked mode (default 0) (see
(page 31))
5
Alarm relay blocked mode (default 0) (see
(page 31))
In legacy mode, the data format is the same as the previous version of the USBoard, compatible to Relay-
BoardV2. This only affects continous transmission mode.
Byte 6
Bits 0 to 3 encode the transmission mode for measurement data.
0
Send on request
1
Send continously via CAN
2
Send continously via USB / RS-232
3
Send continously via CAN and USB / RS-232
Bits 4 to 7 select which group will send measured data (bit 4 for group 0, bit 5 for group 1 and so on). If all bits
are set to 0, all groups will send.
Default is
0xF0
, i.e. all groups transmit on request.
Byte 7
Bits 0 to 3 encode the transmission interval when sending continously.
0
0.5 s
1
1.0 s
2
2.0 s
3
0.2 s
15
custom
Bits 4 to 7 encode a custom transmission interval in 50 ms increments (0 for 50 ms, 1 for 100 ms and so on).
Byte 8
Sensors 1 to 8 active, bit coded. Default is
0xFF
, i.e. all active.
Deactivated sensors do not send ultrasonic pulses. Deactivating sensor channels that are not in use reduces the
overall cycle time.
Byte 9
Sensors 9 to 16 active, bit coded. Default is
0xFF
, i.e. all active.
Deactivated sensors do not send ultrasonic pulses. Deactivating sensor channels that are not in use reduces the
overall cycle time.
Bytes 10-25
Warning distances of sensors 1-16, in cm. Default is 100 cm.
Bytes 26-41
Alarm distances of sensors 1-16, in cm. Default is 30 cm.
Byte 42
Sensor resolution, 2 bits per group
0
1 cm
1
0.5 cm (default)
2
0.25 cm
3
0.125 cm
Byte 43
Enable cross echo mode, one bit per group. Default is 0.
