Ultrasonic Sensor Object Detection Sampling

Hi everyone.

I am busy with a object detection project using ultrasonic sensors (mic+600/dd/tc).
Could someone please help me understand what the following is:

  • switching hysteresis 100 mm
  • switching frequency 2 Hz
  • response time 240 ms
  • delay prior to availability < 450 ms

Datasheet Link: https://www.microsonic.de/DWD/_111327/pdf/1033/microsonic_mic+600_DD_TC.pdf

Hope someone can help
Thanks

switching hysteresis 100 mm

the phenomenon in which the value of a physical property lags behind changes in the effect causing it, as for instance when magnetic induction lags behind the magnetizing force.

Minimum distance that must change for the sensor to switch.
(The distance measured on the analog output will be correct but that distance must change by 100mm
before the switch will actually switch)(this is another way of saying the sensor could not switch for distance changes <100mm)

switching frequency 2 Hz
Maximum speed at which it can switch the NPN or PNP Normally Open switches.

response time 240 ms
time it takes to perform the switching after detection

delay prior to availability < 450 ms
time it takes to detect the next pulse after responding to the last pulse

The sensor has switches (Normally Open, NPN, or PNP)

See User Manual (below) for wiring connections for switch outputs.
You can think of PNP outputs on 2 & 4 as HIGH SIDE SWITCHING SOURCES
for relay coils connected between the source pins and GND.

Think of the the NPN outputs on pins 2 & 4 as LOW SIDE SWITCH SINKS for relay coils connected between the sink pins and the + V pin. (Vcc = 9Vdc to 30Vdc)
Analog output is on pin 2 to GND on models that have analog output.

Do you have the Link Control ?
