O6D laser distance sensor: IO-Link benefits

The O6D laser distance sensor includes IO-Link capabilities. You will have access to continuous process data without the losses associated with data transmission. This allows you to access more parameters to make your application more robust.

Via IO-Link, the O6D provides:

  • Transparent data generation and transmission without analog to digital signal loss
  • Current distance value in mm
  • Current reflectivity value in %
  • Current device status, including status of switching outputs and diagnostic function check
  • Easy and quick parameter setting with moneo configure software
