Unless otherwise noted, the following parameters are typical at room temperature (25 ° C)
1, The update time is the time it takes for the sensor's biaxial angle value to be updated once.Therefore, in the question
and answer mode, the transmission of the next angle query command should be kept at least 40 ms apart from the end
of the previous angle query command.

Communication Protocol

1.Communication protocol compatible with Modbus RTU protocol：

The default baud rate is 9600bps, check digit: no parity, data bit: 8, stop bit: 1; default address: 01H

Register address Data value name Data Type Range R/W Default Value
0002H X Axis angle value - high Int16 0000H~FFFFH R -
0003H X Axis angle value - low Int16 0000H~FFFFH R -
0004H Y Axis angle value - high Int16 0000H~FFFFH R -
0005H X Axis angle value - low Int16 0000H~FFFFH R -
0006H X Axis temperature value Int16 0000H~FFFFH R -
0007H Y Axis temperature value Int16 0000H~FFFFH R -
0008H Keep Int16 0000H~FFFFH R 0000H
0009H Keep Int16 0000H~FFFFH R 0000H
0010H Set absolute/relative zero Int16U 0000H~00FFH R/W 0000H
0011H Local Address Int16U 0001H~00FFH R/W 0001H
0012H Baud rate Int16U 0000H~0004H R/W 0002H
0013H reset Int16U 0000H~FFFFH R/W FFFFH

1. R is read-only and R/W is readable and writable. The function code of the read register is 03H, and the function code of

the write register is 06H. Other unopened addresses are invalid.

2. The product (address, absolute/relative zero, baud rate, default factory parameters) can be set in batches by broadcast
command (broadcast address 00), but the product has no return value. After the product restarts, the products are

individually verified to be set successfully.

Installation Instructions

Improper installation can result in large angle measurement errors. Please pay attention to the following two points

when installing：

①: 'Two sides' means that the mounting surface of the sensor is completely close to the mounting surface of the object

to be measured (the mounting surface of the object to be measured should be as horizontal as possible), and no angle

can be generated (such as the angle a in the figure A). The correct installation method is shown in Figure B.

②: 'Two lines' means that the axis of the sensor is parallel to the axis of the surface to be measured, and the two axes

cannot be angled (such as the angle b in Figure C). The correct installation method is D.
