Switching on the supply voltage
The inclinometer initializes after being switched on. The configuration parameters are loaded
from the nonvolatile memory into the main memory of the controller during initialization.
Each sensor will work with its default values as long as no changes have been made to it. With
parameters changed, the sensor will work with the changed data, which must be stored if they
are intended to be used after power off/on.
After completing the initialization procedure, each inclinometer sends a specific NMT
command, the boot-up message, which informs the system about their availability. The
inclinometer is now in the pre-operational mode. In this state, the sensor can be
parameterized via SDO commands in accordance with the requirements of the application. This
concerns both the configuration parameters of the sensor system and the way in which it
makes its slope values available to the system (asynchronous or synchronous data
transmission).
