Configurator tools

Some sensor types can be configured by the customer. Below you will find an overview of the possibilities: 

QG40N series (inclination/acceleration/tilt switch) 

To configure sensors from this series DIS sensors has developed a tailor-made configurator:

This configurator is connected to the sensor and the USB port of your PC. A PC application will show all the options available. The tool is capable of reconfiguring calibrated QG40N sensors with a standard PC. It can read the actual sensor settings, shows all relevant parameters and offers the possibility to reconfigure the device while keeping the calibration data.

QG40N series configurator 4.0 is the current version we sell. All versions higher than 3.0 are compatible with the PC application V3.10. Customers who bought the QG40N series configurator v1.1 (or other versions before 3.0), need to download the old PC application.

Breakout Cable

The breakout cable is a very handy tool if your sensor has a cable instead of a connector. It has 3 clips that can be easily clipped to the cable of the sensor. And at the other end is an M12 male connector which you can connect directly to the configurator. If you wish to order the breakout cable, please use order code 12345.

QG65(N)/QG76(N) CANopen series

Via the CAN object dictionary, many sensor parameters can be configured. All possibilities are described in the appropriate CAN user manual.

There is no special configurator available because each customer is using the configuration capabilities of their own CAN master/standard CAN programming tools like Codesys or Peak CANopen Magic. 

QG65N/QG76N CANopen Safety series
