Detailed description
The LCS06 is a cable encoder intended for linear displacement measurement. It uses incremental (optical) encoder technology to measure cable travel and provide Push-pull, TTL line driver or HTL line driver signals. This sensor is designed for long mechanical life and integrates into many industrial and machine-building applications. The sensor requires signal conditioning/processing for reading and display via appropriate measurement systems or software (display, transmitter, etc.).
