RSU10 USB interface

The RSU10 USB interface accepts 1 Vpp sine / cosine signals from an RLE system, interpolates by 16,384 and provides a position reading via a USB port. 

This signal can then be used by Renishaw's standard XL-80 laser system software or the user's own custom developed software.

The RLE systems remote fibre optic coupled detector head is ideal for installation on fixed measurement rigs.  By using RSU10, measurement data can be displayed using established Renishaw calibration software packages (LaserXL™ and QuickViewXL™).  This provides an ideal solution for users who need to view and analyse real-time dynamic measurement data.

A software development kit (SDK) is supplied with each RSU10 which allows the development of  function specific software. Note: Laser USB SDK does not support dynamic data capture (max update rate = 20 Hz).

Features and benefits

  • 16,384 interpolation provides signal resolution to 9.64 picometre at velocity of 1 m/s
  • Compatible with the XC-80 compensator for applications where fluctuating environmental conditions need to be compensated for
  • Can be used with both plane mirror and retroreflector configured systems, and either Axis 1 or Axis 2 output signals
  • Directly compatible with established calibration software packages with the ability to interface to custom designed software solutions
  • TPin trigger input facility allows data capture to commence on receipt of an externally generated signal
