LDM42 Laser Distance Sensor

The LMC-J-0040-2 is an opto-electronic distance measuring module for industrial applications. The module operates on basis of comparative phase measurement with amplitude modulation. The laser diode (cw operation) has a divergence of 0.6 mrad for measurement with pinpoint accuracy. The sensor is equipped with RS 232 or RS 422 serial interface as well as digital and analogue (4…20 mA) output. The maximum data output rate is 50Hz. The different configuration parameters can be set via serial interface using a regular PC. The easy to understand ASCII protocol can be used to set, for example, the measurement rate, data format (binary, hex- or decimal code), digital output settings, analogue output settings, etc. The laser works with cw laser diode which visible spot you can use to easily adjust the device.
