Calculating Measured Values
This section describes the setting procedure that is used to calculate measured values when
Calculating Units are connected by Amplifier Units. Up to 8 Amplifier Units can be used at one
time, and measured values can be calculated even when Sensors have different measurement
distances.
The ZX-L-series Smart Sensors (Laser Type), ZX-E-series Smart Sensors (Linear
Proximity Type), and ZX-W-series Smart Sensors (Microwave Type) are not compatible.
The 2 types of expressions are outlined in the following table.
Note:
A: Amplifier Unit in which the expression is set (CH2 to CH8)
B: CH1 Amplifier Unit
The response time for CH2 Amplifier Units to which expressions have been set is increased by
1.0 ms. The response time is also influenced by the setting for the number of samples to average, so
the response time will be the response time based on the set number of samples to average
+1.0 ms.
