Question
Can Z500 / Z550
Displacement & Measurement Sensors be used to measure the thickness of an
object by connecting two Sensor Heads?
Answer
Unlike Z300 Displacement & Measurement Sensor, the thickness cannot be
measured by placing the object between two Sensor Heads.
The Z500 and Z550 can be used by connecting two Sensor Heads, but only one
of the Sensor Heads is used to make a measurement. For each scene, one
Sensor is used, either Sensor 0 or Sensor 1. (Two Sensors cannot be used
for the same scene.)
The Z500 and Z550 do not have the ability to conduct calculations using
the data from two Sensors.
For these reasons, the Sensors cannot be used to measure the thickness of
an object.
The number of the Sensor (i.e., Sensor 0 or Sensor 1) is determined by the
connector used to connect the Sensor to Controller.
