Dynamic measurement approach
The GIM600DR incorporates 6-DOF MEMS sensors for acceleration and rotation. According to the data sheet:
- Inclination measurement in one axis with compensation of external accelerations
- High signal quality and fast response time thanks to powerful, field-proven sensor fusion algorithms
- Six-degree-of-freedom inertial measurement unit (IMU)
- Raw data output for acceleration and rotation rate
The manufacturer states that the rugged design offers highest availability under the harshest environmental conditions.
CANopen® features
- Profiles: CANopen® CiA DS 301 V4.2, inclinometer profile DS 410 V2.0, LSS service profile DS 305 V3.0
- Default settings: resolution 0.1°, baud rate 250 kbit/s, Node-ID 1 (Node-ID 2 on the redundant version), time-driven transmission 100 ms
- PDO 1 content: temperature and the inclination angle (slope long)
- Secondary data: acceleration (resolution 0.1 mg; range -3.2768…+3.2767 g), rotation rate (0.01 dps; range -327.68…+327.67 dps) and Euler angles (0.01 deg; range -180°…+180°)
- Listed as options in the data sheet: Euler angle / quaternion output and 3-axis acceleration / rotation rate output can be PDO-mapped. Contact us to find out which version offers them.
Connection and pin assignment
Connection: flylead connector 2 x M12, 5-pin (Bus-in / Bus-out); M12 flange connector (male/female), A-encoded.
| Pin 1 | CAN_GND (ground connection relating to CAN) |
| Pin 2 | +Vs (voltage supply) |
| Pin 3 | GND (ground connection relating to +Vs) |
| Pin 4 | CAN_H (CAN bus signal, dominant high) |
| Pin 5 | CAN_L (CAN bus signal, dominant low) |
- The GND and CAN_GND terminals are internally connected and identical in their functions.
- Maximum load on the Vs and GND terminals is 1.5 A each; the daisy chain current is max. 1.5 A.
Installation and commissioning notes
- The rotational axis must be horizontal, perpendicular to earth gravity; maximum misalignment ±3°.
- The default position is 0° and can be configured with the zero setting function.
- The plumb angle measuring range is 0…360°.
- Reference the zero position of the sensor after installation and check the zero-point stability regularly while installed.
- Dynamic accuracy depends on the characteristics of the movement patterns in the application; validating the sensor performance in the application is highly recommended.
- Self-heating must be considered for precise thermal design; approximately 5 K applies when mounted on a painted metal base. When operating close to the maximum characteristic values, the actual temperature at the sensor housing must be measured.
