Measurement
capaNCDT 6200
A change from the EtherCAT interface back to the Ethernet interface is possible with the hardware switch on
the DT6230 basic unit or via the corresponding CoE Object. In both cases, then a restart of the controller is
required.
To integrate the EtherCAT interface e.g. within TwinCAT an ESI-file is supplied.
You will find further instructions in the appendix, see A 6.
8. Measurement
With the capaNCDT either the deflection or the compensation method of measurement can be applied.
- Deflection method for fast events and tolerance monitoring:
Put the zero point in the centre of the measuring range, the output signal is then in proportion to the distance.
Fast events are displayed on a suitable external recorder (oscilloscope, recorder, transient recorder).
- Compensation method for constant or slowly changing distances.
Compensation is carried out with the “zero” potentiometer until the output signal is 0 Volt. Sensitivity is not
affected by doing this.
