Analog output

Scaling
The distance value is output via the analog output. The resolution of the analog output is 16 bit.
Output range
4 ... 20 mA, error value approx. 3 mA
Scaling
Standard scaling
Scaling to 50 ... 8000 mm
Two-point scaling
Min. distance (in mm):
Value
Max. distance (in mm):
Value
The following applies for two-point scaling:
The value
min distance
corresponds to the new start of the
measuring range, the value
max distance
corresponds to the
new end of the measuring range. Two-point scaling allows for
user-defined specification of the measuring range to be output.

Formula
1) The actual value for the
measuring range depends,
inter alia, on the reflectivity of
the target and on whether a
reflector film is used.
