| # Laser Manual | ||
|
|
||
| The **Laser DRE** is a precision measurement device designed for real-time diameter measurement of rotating objects. It communicates over a **USB Serial interface** using the **Modbus RTU** protocol. | ||
|
|
||
| Key features include: | ||
|
|
||
| - High-speed diameter measurement | ||
| - Single- or dual-axis capability | ||
| - USB Serial communication | ||
| - Modbus RTU protocol support | ||
|
|
||
| ## Technical Specifications | ||
|
|
||
| - **Communication Interface:** USB Serial | ||
| - **Protocol:** Modbus RTU | ||
| - **Axes:** 1-axis or 2-axis measurement (depending on model) | ||
| - **Polling Rate:** Every 16 ms | ||
| - **Measurement Rate:** 320 measurements per second (manufacturer specification) | ||
| - **Measurement Type:** Diameter measurement | X-Axis width (1-axis) | X/Y-Axis width + Roundness (2-axis) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Operation | ||
|
|
||
| ### Polling | ||
|
|
||
| The device **polls the diameter every 16 milliseconds**, ensuring near real-time data acquisition for precise monitoring. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Measurement | ||
|
|
||
| According to the manufacturer, the Laser DRE can measure the diameter **320 times per second**, providing high-resolution data for process control and analysis. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Axes | ||
|
|
||
| Depending on the model, the device measures across **one or two axes**. The 2-axis variant enables comprehensive profiling of both the diameter and the cross-sectional shape of the object. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Communication Protocol | ||
|
|
||
| The device uses **Modbus RTU** over the USB Serial connection. | ||
|
|
||
| Key points: | ||
|
|
||
| - **Master/Slave Model:** The Laser DRE acts as a Modbus slave device. | ||
| - **Function Codes:** Supports standard Modbus RTU function codes for reading measurements. | ||
| - **Data Format:** Diameter measurements are transmitted in the format specified by the manufacturer (consult device manual for register addresses and scaling). | ||
|
|
||
| ## Settings | ||
|
|
||
| The device includes a small display that allows changing several operational settings: | ||
|
|
||
| ### Units | ||
|
|
||
| The laser can operate in **millimeters (mm)** or **inches (in)**. | ||
| The QiTech Control software uses **millimeters**. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Alarm | ||
|
|
||
| The laser can emit an audible alarm if the measured diameter is out of tolerance. | ||
| **Note:** The tolerance settings on the laser may differ from the tolerance configured in our software. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Communication | ||
|
|
||
| Several communication parameters can be configured: | ||
|
|
||
| - **Set UART:** Configure **parity (8N1)** and **baud rate (38400)**. | ||
| - **Set Protocol:** Choose the communication protocol. _(We use Modbus RTU.)_ | ||
| - **Set Slave Address:** The slave address of our laser is **1**. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Calibration | ||
|
|
||
| The laser can be calibrated using **4 mm** and **8 mm** reference rods. |
