The Optical Data Coupler, designated as LS230-DA-GUF, is engineered for effective detection ranges extending up to 230 meters. Utilizing modulated infrared light, it supports a threshold detection range of 340 meters. The device incorporates an alignment aid comprising a telescopic sight and a frontal red LED for effective setup.

Its transmission mode employs FSK, with a response delay of 40 µs. At a distance of 230 meters, the diameter of the light spot measures 8000 mm, featuring an emitter opening angle of 2° and a receiver opening angle of 5°. The coupler operates under ambient light conditions up to 3000 Lux.

Data flow indicators are provided by a green LED for the emitter and a yellow LED for the receiver, while a three-color LED band display indicates functional status. Control elements consist of an 8-fold DIP-switch located in the terminal compartment, allowing for the selection of transmission frequency and interface.

This device operates with a supply voltage of 24 V DC ± 25%, with a maximum no-load supply current of 1000 mA. It supports data rates ranging from 0 to 19.2 kbit/s and operates at frequencies F1 = 83 kHz and F2 = 118 kHz. The output configuration includes two short-circuit protected PNP outputs, activated for stability control, and a measurement output ranging from 2.5 to 6 V DC.

Complying with EN 60947-5-2 standards and bearing CE approval, the coupler is designed for a wide ambient temperature range of -30 to 50 °C (-22 to ... [Mehr lesen]
