Frequently Asked Questions

What is the communication interface of the PTFG-1500 sensor?

The PTFG-1500 features a configurable serial interface that supports USART (TTL), RS232, and RS485 communication protocols. You can select the appropriate interface mode to match your host controller, such as an Arduino's UART, a PC's RS232 port, or an industrial PLC's RS485 network.

Is the laser beam from this sensor safe for eyes?

Yes. The sensor uses a Class 1 laser product with a wavelength of 905nm and an output power of less than 1mW. This invisible, low-power laser is considered eye-safe under normal operating conditions, making it suitable for applications where people may be present.

What is the minimum measurable distance for the PTFG-1500?

The PTFG-1500 has a specified measurement range starting at 3 meters, extending up to 1500 meters. Objects closer than 3 meters may not be detected or may return inaccurate readings, as this is the sensor's minimum ranging threshold.

Can this sensor operate in cold or hot outdoor environments?

The sensor is rated for operation within a temperature range of 0°C to 50°C. It is suitable for many outdoor applications within this range. For environments outside these limits, external protection or a different sensor model with a wider temperature specification may be required.
