Frequently Asked Questions

Ultrasonic Sensor Topic: Synchronous Operation

 

FAQ No. FAQ01408

 

Question

 

What is synchronous operation?

 

 

Answer

Synchronous operation can be used when using multiple Ultrasonic Sensors to prevent mutual interference between the Sensors by emitting the ultrasonic waves from each Sensor at the same time (by synchronizing them).

Prevention of mutual interference using synchronized operation is possible only when the Sensors are placed at different detection distances, and their sensing ranges do not overlap.

The sensing range of 1 does not overlap with the sensing range of 2.
