HEAVY DUTY INCLINOMETER
ANALOG & RS232 INTERFACE
The Heavy Duty inclinometers are robust inclination sensors specially designed for applications involving
rough handling and exposure to rigorous conditions. The die cast aluminium housing and the metal
connector enhance the mechanical strength of the sensor and make it ideal for heavy duty usage.

Modes of Operation
Can be switched between Polled Mode or Continuous mode.
Baud rate
The Baud rate can be programmed to lie between ranges of
2400 Baud and 115200 Baud.
Output Transmission Rate
The transmission rate of angular values can be adjusted to lie
between 62.5 ms and 10 seconds per value.
Moving Average Filter
Used to calculate the output position value as an average over last
N values where N varies from 2 to 100 measurements in steps of
N = n², n = 1, 2, 3 …
Resolution2 Per 1°
The parameter, resolution per degree is used to program the
desired number of angular divisions per 1° of rotation.
Preset Value
The current position value is set to the mid angle position by the
parameter preset.
Programmable Parameters
The parameters of inclinometer can be re-configured using the RS232 interface . Additionally Preset can
also be done through a (soon to be available) Analog Teach-in. (Refer User Manual for additional
information).
The resolution programming functionality is not yet fully operational.
