Benewake TF-SV24S08 LiDAR Sensor Module, Range: 0.2m~8m, 8-36V DC

The TF-SV24S08 typically provides a configurable digital output (e.g., UART serial data or PWM) corresponding to the measured distance. The exact interface and protocol are defined in the manufacturer's datasheet, which should be consulted for specific wiring and communication details to integrate with PLCs, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or other controllers.

While the module uses 850nm infrared light and has algorithms to handle ambient light, direct intense sunlight can potentially saturate the receiver and affect maximum range or accuracy. For optimal outdoor performance, it is recommended to shield the sensor lens from direct sunlight or verify performance under specific application conditions as per the datasheet guidelines.

Power the module using a stable DC supply between 8V and 36V, connecting to the designated V+ and GND pins. The frame rate, adjustable from 1Hz to 250Hz, is typically configured via specific command codes sent over its communication interface (like UART) as detailed in the Benewake communication protocol documentation. A higher frame rate provides faster updates but may increase power consumption slightly.

The minimum detectable object depends on its reflectivity, size, and distance. The sensor's 2° narrow field of view and internal algorithms are optimized for typical industrial targets. For low-reflectivity (dark, matte) or very small objects, the maximum effective range may be reduced. Refer to the datasheet's detection performance charts for specific details based on target characteristics.
