Ruicom NTS3 Series CANBUS output tilt sensor

Product catalog summary
Product Introduction
The NTS3 series is a digital miniature MEMS tilt sensor developed by RUICOM Technology. It measures static gravitational acceleration to determine roll and pitch angles relative to the horizontal plane. It supports CAN OPEN, CAN2.0A, and CAN2.0B protocols, with a built-in MCU for improved accuracy. It is suitable for static or slowly changing environments and offers resistance to electromagnetic interference.

Application Scope
Applications include angle control for machinery, satellite antenna positioning, automobile alignment, medical bed leveling, and gimbal operation monitoring.

Technical Highlights
- Selectable outputs: CANopen/CAN2.0A/CAN2.0B
- Measurement range: ±10° to ±90°
- Resolution: 0.02°
- Power supply: DC 5V
- Protection rating: IP67

Performance Parameters
Measurement ranges vary from ±10° to ±90° with a resolution of 0.02° and accuracy of 0.1° at 25°C. The sensor has a response frequency of 20 Hz and configurable output rates. It is compatible with EN61000 and GBT17626 standards for electromagnetic compatibility.

Ordering and Selecting
Models are defined by housing type, axis, range, signal output, and installation method. For example, NTS3X10-C1-H indicates a shell housing, X-axis, ±10° range, CANopen output, and horizontal installation.

Electrical Parameters
Standard power supply voltage is 4.5-5.5V, with customizable options up to 36V. Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C.

Interface Definition
Wire colors and pin definitions are provided for power supply and CAN communication lines.

Product Dimensions
The PCBA board measures L33 × W27 × H8.2 mm, while the shell dimensions are L55.5×W37×H29mm, made of anodized aluminum.

Installation Orientation
The sensor should be installed parallel to the target surface, minimizing dynamic and acceleration effects. It can be installed horizontally or vertically.

CANOPEN Communication Protocol
Details on SDO messages, node number modification, baud rate settings, and PDO sending time are provided. The sensor outputs angles immediately upon power-up, with specific message formats for data transmission.

CAN2.0A/B Communication Protocol
Similar to CANOPEN, this section details node number modification, baud rate settings, and angle data analysis. The sensor outputs angles with a specific message format, and conversion examples are provided.

Ruicom NTS3 Series CANBUS output tilt sensor-2

Technical Highlights ❖ Measurement range ±10~±90° selectable; ❖ Standard DC 5V power supply; Product Introduction- The NTS3 series is a new generation of digital miniature MEMS tilt sensors developed by RUICOM Technology. It integrates a dual-channel Earth gravity tilt sensing unit, measuring static gravitational acceleration and converting it into tilt angle changes, thereby obtaining the sensor's output roll and pitch angles relative to the horizontal plane. This series supports multiple output protocols including CAN OPEN, CAN2.0A, and CAN2.0B. With the built-in MCU control system, the sensor...

SDO messages: SDO request and response messages always consist of 8 bytes, with zeros added at the end if the data bytes are insufficient. The format and content of Write Object request and response messages are shown in Tables 1-1 and 1-2: Node_ID is the CAN communication node number, Index_LSB is the low byte of the dictionary index, Index_MSB is the high byte of the dictionary index, and Sub_index is the sub-index. This message is automatically sent after the tilt angle power-on initialization is complete. The message length is 1, and the default node number (Node_ID) is 0x05._ Table 1 -5...

Setting instructions: The CAN-ID is followed by four bytes of parameters. The first two bytes are the X-axis tilt angle, and the next two bytes are the Y-axis tilt angle, with the low byte first and the high byte last. Angle conversion example: The X-axis angle data is represented by a 16-bit binary number, with the high 8 bits representing XH and the low 8 bits representing XL. Convert this 16-bit binary number to a decimal number, then divide by 100 (for a resolution of 0.01; if the resolution is 0.1, divide by 10; if the resolution is 0.05, divide by 20). The result is the angle. 0-0X2328...

1) Modify the node number (node range: 0x01-0x7F), the default node number is 0x05.The ID bit width of CAN2.0A is 11 bits, and the ID bit width of CAN2.0B is 29 bits. Request message format_______ Note: If the controller sends CAN-ID=0x600+0x05 and sends data: 40 10 10 00 10 00 00 00, the sensor returns CAN-ID=0x580+0x05 and sends data: 40 10 10 00 10 00 00 00. After power-on, the received frame ID is 0x590 (0x580+0x10), indicating that the frame ID was successfully modified. Request message format________ The CAN-ID is followed by eight bytes of parameters. The first three bytes are the X-axis...
