Analogue newcomers to the pico+ sensor family

An analogue output that has it all
The future belongs to the IO-Link. We are convinced about that. But there is still a long life left for the ultrasonic sensor with analogue output. That is why we have extended the pico+ sensor family with 0–10 voltage outputs and a 4–20 mA current output. The analogue characteristic can be set with the proven microsonic teach-in procedure and the output characteristic changed from the rising characteristic to the falling one. Our link control software on extensive parameterization, of course, also supports the analogue pico+ sensors.

IO-Link – the new standard
The new IO-Link interface in the pico+ sensors provides us with the requirements to effect continuous communication through all system architecture levels up and into the sensor itself. In this way, both machinery and equipment can be run in a more productive manner.
In the IO-Link mode the distances measured are cyclically transmitted to the master; the IO-Link mode can in future replace an analogue output.
