The distance measuring device DL100 comprises optics, a sender/receiver
unit and an evaluation unit. The sender emits the laser beam. The receiver
receiveslightreectedbythereector.Theevaluationelectricalunitdeter-
minesthedistancebetweensensorandreectorbytimeofightmeasure-
ment.
Formeasurement,eitherthereectororthemeasuringdevicemaymove
linearly along the laser beam.
The distance measuring device DL100 is equipped with two CANopen
®
interfaces and one Ethernet interface. The CANopen
®
interfaces serve
communication via CANopen
®
. The Ethernet interface serves communica-
tion, diagnosis and parameterization via SOPAS ET.
The measured distance is transferred via the "CANopen
®
" interface and
may be used, e.g. for the control unit or a position-control circuit.
