Arn-Ts2D: Digital Tilt Sensor

The document describes a digital tilt sensor called the ARN-TS2D that measures pitch and roll angles. It provides accurate angle measurements at selectable refresh rates from 1-50 Hz. It has a small size suitable for OEM applications and works over a wide temperature range. It outputs angle data in either ASCII or MODBUS formats through RS-232, RS-485, or MODBUS RTU interfaces.

ARN-TS2D

DIGITAL TILT SENSOR

FEATURES

• Pitch and roll angle output


• Fast response me
• Selectable refresh rates from
1, 10 or 50 Hz
• High accuracy
• Small size ideal for OEM appli-
caons
• Environmentally sealed
• Low Cost

APPLICATIONS
• Angle, lt sensing
• Orientaon, rotaon meas-
urement
• Pla/orm stabilizaon, leveling
• Sun tracking DESCRIPTION
• Robocs
ARN-TS2D gives precise lt informaon about roll and
• Lab instrumentaon
pitch axis in digital serial formats in stac or non-
accelerated environment. Output is available at conn-
uous user selectable rate.

The device uses new-age sensors employing MEMS ac-


celerometers and embedded processing to give accu-
rate informaon where applicaons demand so. The
device is factory calibrated and tested with no general
need for on-site calibraon.

ARN-TS2D lt sensor is small in size and low cost making


them ideal for OEM applicaons. These sensors can tol-
erate harsh environments such as factories, plants and
construcon and render outstanding performance over
wide temperature condions. This sensor comes with
industrial type circular connector, therefore it is very
suitable for automove, marine, building, roboc and
automaon applicaons.

DATA OUTPUT FORMAT


On RS232 and RS485 interfaces sensor gives outputs angles in form of a string through transmit pin TX.
This data is composed of ASCII characters and the packet is of the format,

R:SXXX.XX<space>P:SXXX.XX\r\n

The contents of this data packet are as described below,

String/Character Name Descripon Range


R: Roll header -
P: Pitch header -
S Sign <space> or ‘-’
XXX.XX Angle Range as per device
\r Carriage return -
\n Line feed -

On MODBUS RTU interface, details of query and response are the following

MODBUS query details;

[Slave ID] [Funcon code] [Base address] [Number of registers] [CRC]

Slave ID: It is device ID, could vary from 1 to 255. This ID is menoned at the boPom of the sensor or last
number in serial number of device
Funcon code: Read input register, value is 04
Base address: This is fixed number, value is 00 00
Number of registers: This is fixed number, value is 00 04
CRC: It is to be calculated based on the preceding data, CRC 16 standard.

For example: 01 04 00 00 00 04 F1 C9

Response details:

[Slave ID] [Funcon code] [Number of bytes] [Roll angle] [Pitch angle] [CRC]

Slave Id: Returns the device ID.


Funcon code: Read input register, value is 04
Number of bytes: It is fixed, value is 8
Roll angle: 4 Bytes data
Pitch angle: 4 Bytes data
CRC: 2 Bytes data, It is to be calculated based on the proceeding data, CRC 16 standard

Example: 01 04 08 xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx CRC

On MODBUS RTU interface, user can program Slave ID and select required Baud Rate.
