Pins Definition

Pin 1| +5V
Pin 2| GND
Pin 3| TXD/PWM
Pin 4| RXD

Remarks:

  1. The sensor has two output methods: PWM or UART, In UART mode, Pin4 is used as serial port data transmitter; In PWM mode, Pin4 is used as PWM output.
  2. The output method of the sensor is set at the factory.

Performance introduction

The sensor can accurately identify particles of different sizes,

  1. Response to flour using a vacuum cleaner fitted with ZPH05:

PWM output

n PWM mode, the sensor outputs a PWM signal through the PWM port (pin 3). The PWM period is 500mS, and the level is calculated according to the low level width. Levels 1-4 correspondto100-400mS respectively. The low pulse width of the pin output corresponds to the sensor level value. The level value is internally processed by software filtering, and the beating a amplitude is relatively small. If the optical path of the sensor is seriously blocked, which affects the measurement, the sensor will output a PWM with a period of 500mS and a low-level width of 495mS until the optical path of the sensor returns to normal.

PWM output

Remarks: 1.low pulse width 100ms = 1 grade。

UART output

In serial port mode, the sensor outputs serial port data through the TXD pin (pin 3), and send saframe of data every 500mS.

Serial port general settings:

Baud rate 9600
Interface level 4.4±0.2 V(TTL)
Data byte 8 bytes
Stop byte 2 byte
Check byte no

Cautions

Installation:

  1. The installation position of sensor transmitter and receiver should be designed at 180°±10°
  2. In order to ensure accuracy and consistency, the distance between the launch tube and the receiver should not be too long (recommended less than 60mm)
  3. External light and foreign objects should be avoided in the optical beam area
  4. The sensor’s location should avoid strong vibration
  5. The connection between the receiver and the sensor motherboard should avoid strong electromagnetic environment. When there is a wireless communication module (such as WiFi, Bluetooth, GPRS, etc.) around the sensor, it should keep a sufficient distance from the sensor. Please verify the specific safety distance by yourself.

Transport & storage:

  1. Avoid vibration – During transportation and assembly, frequent and excessive vibration will caused is location of optoelectronic devices and affect the original calibration data.
  2. Long term storage – Store in a sealed bag to avoid contact with corrosive gases to damage circuit board sand optical devices
