Displacement sensors / Width-measuring Sensors
ZS-MDC11/MDC41 Multi-Controllers
Basic specifications are the same as those for the
Sensor Controllers.
The following points, however, are different.
(1) Sensor Heads cannot be connected.
(2) A maximum 9 of Controllers can be connected.
Control Link Units are required to connect Controllers.
(3) Processing functions between Controllers:
Math functions
Data Storage Units
Functions
Display: Measured value, threshold value, voltage/current, received light amount, and resolution
Sensing: Mode, gain, measurement object, head installation
Filter: Smooth, average, and differentiation
Outputs: Scaling, various hold values, and zero reset
