Position
Note
The P
OSITION
device page is only displayed if you have activated the Level Control application
(see
).
On this device page you can enter the coordinates and angle of the LMS400 over the
conveyor system and in this way define the zero point for the system.
You can also define the relevant working area as the measurement area.
3.3.1
Coordinates
As delivered the zero point for the distance measurement is at the origin of the laser
(marked by a dot on the top and underside of the housing).
The Level Control application requires a global zero point to which all other settings refer
(e.g. right edge of the conveyor system as seen in the transporting direction). You can define
this zero point with the aid of the X, Y and Z coordinates.
As a rule this zero point is at the bottom right edge of the conveyor system as seen in the
transporting direction.
