Activate the output of the measured values in SOPAS on a
trial basis:
1. Start the terminal emulator with the
button.
2. Select the
C
onneCt
...
command in the
C
onneCtions
menu
in the dialog window and establish communication with
the TiM51x over the RS232 or USB interface.
3. Enter one of the two telegrams in the "Send telegram"
input line as they appear (automatically framed by STX and
ETX when sending in the default setting). Pay attention to
blank characters in the string.
4.
Use the
button to transfer the telegram to the TiM51x.
The TiM51x responds by providing the data as a one-off or
continuously in the display area of the terminal emulator.
Data output format of the measured values
The data output format per scan is comprised of the
measured values (radial distance, RSSI), device and status
information and time stamp.
In the default settings, the distance is output as a measured
value (in mm).
In order to output remission values in the telegram, select the
Rssi
checkbox.
To display the remission values in the scan as well, select the
Rssi...
checkbox.
Output range of the measured values
The TiM51x scans an angle range of 270°(-45° to 225°) and
outputs 271 measured values per scan in the default setting.
The angle range for which measured values can be output
can be set via
o
utput
RanGe
(resolution 3°).

Output of measured values
If the TiM51x receives one of the two following commands
by telegram over the RS232 or USB interface it will start
the output of measured values in real time over these data
interfaces.
The detailed construction of the output telegram as well as
the flow of requests and outputs is described in the "
