Technical report – Optical data transmission photoelectric sensor for location-independent remote diagnostics

Optical data transmission photoelectric sensor

Optical data transmission photoelectric sensors make it possible to wirelessly transmit the data in industrial networks from moving system parts in conveyor systems, such as high-bay storage devices, gantry crane bridges or side-tracking skates, and to do so without interference over long distances. Devices available on the market up to now require a not insignificant amount of effort for alignment and adjustment during commissioning on site and permit only local error diagnostics. The new DDLS 500 from Leuze Electronic now combines excellent performance data such as 100 Mbit/s real-time transmission over a distance of up to 200m with a world first: by means of remote diagnostics through the use of an integrated web server, all relevant data can be called up worldwide…
