Ultrasonic Sensors
8.2 Condition Monitoring/Process Data
The data described in the following section can be read or written cyclically via IO-Link/process data.
8.2.1 Process Data In
Data
Meaning
Measured value Measured distance in mm or 1/10 inch
As the sensor cannot determine a measured value in the following error cases, substitute
values are read out:
No signal: 0x7FFC / – 32760 mm
Object too close: 0x8008 / 32760 mm
Object too far: 0x7FF8 / 32764 mm
Scale
Scaling of the measured value to the base length unit; –3 corresponds to mm.
SSC1
Switching point 1
SSC2
Switching point 2
Warning
Collective warning in the event of one of the warning status messages
(see table
Error
Collective warning in the event of one of the error status messages
(see table
Message 1
Status message 1 read out (see
“8.1.4.1 Status Message Function”
Message 2
Status message 2 read out (see
“8.1.4.1 Status Message Function”
Message 3
Status message 3 read out (see
“8.1.4.1 Status Message Function”
Message 4
Status message 4 read out (see
“8.1.4.1 Status Message Function”
8.2.2 Process Data Out
Data
Meaning
Transmit signal Transmit signal on/off
NOTE!
This parameter can be used to configure multiplex operation of the sensors.
In the multiplex mode, ultrasonic sensors emit their pulses alternately. This
operating mode prevents sensors located in direct proximity to each other
from interfering with one another.
Localization
Sensor flashes for easy sensor location
