LMS400 laser measurement sensor
All measured values outside the measurement area are invalid and are not taken into
account.
How to define the measurement area:
3.4
Basic parameters
To be able to perform measurements with the LMS400, the basic parameters must be
configured. For this purpose configure the size of the scanning area, the angular resolution
and the scanning frequency in the scan settings.
3.4.1
Current device parameters
The C
URRENT
DEVICE
PARAMETER
area indicates the scanning frequency and the angular
resolution actually set and the resulting measured value quality.
Note
Values are only displayed if you configure a device online, that is the PC is connected to the
device.
Measured value quality
You
cannot
configure the measured value quality directly. The sensor calculates the
measured value quality based on the configured angular resolution and the scanning
frequency.
The measured value quality should ideally be
7. A higher value corresponds to a better
measured value quality. If the measured value quality determined from the parameters is
lower than 7, the sensor is no longer compliant with the values given in the technical data.
