Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about our products and services
No. The datasheet specifies 0.25–150 kHz and a 4 kHz factory setting. The cited source does not publish a fixed numeric selection increment.
No. Its footnote includes median 9, a 4096-value moving average, Ethernet at 150 kHz and a white diffuse target at standard-range midpoint. Retain those conditions.
No. Table footnotes specify linearity at 20 kHz and repeatability at 150 kHz, with averaging. Do not merge them into one same-condition accuracy value.
Yes. The ≥200000 lux specification requires background suppression. Default settings at 20 kHz specify 50000 lux.
No. Alongside Ethernet/RS422, integrated PROFINET or EtherCAT versions are available. Select the interface variant; the cited EtherNet/IP path requires IF2035.
