INDUSTRIAL INCLINOMETER
ANALOG & RS232 INTERFACE
The industrial inclinometers are compact solutions for determining the inclination in both single and dual
axes with remarkable precision and at a lower expense. The molded housing provides the mechanical
stability and the fully encapsulated sensor has a high environmental protection making it ideal for
measuring tilt / slope in industrial environments.

Modes of Operation
Inclinometer 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 62.5ms 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 256 measurements in
steps of N = n², n = 1, 2, 3 …
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 to User Manual for additional
information.)
