1.3 Description of functions AMS 308i
The AMS 308ioptical laser measurement system calculates distances to fixed as well as
moving system parts. The distance to be measured is calculated according to the principle
of the propagation time of radiated light. Here, the light emitted by the laser diode is reflected
by a reflector onto the receiving element of the laser measurement system. The AMS 308i
uses the "propagation time" of the light to calculate the distance to the reflector. The high
absolute measurement accuracy of the laser measurement system and the fast integration
time are designed for position control applications.
With the AMS 3xxiproduct series, Leuze electronic makes available a range of internation-
ally relevant interfaces. Note that each interface version listed below corresponds to a
different AMS 3xximodel.

3 Fast commissioning / operating principle
Notice!
Below, you will find a short description for the initial commissioning of the AMS 308i.
Detailed explanations for the listed points can be found throughout the handbook.
3.1 Mounting the AMS 308i
The AMS 308iand the corresponding reflector are mounted on two mutually opposing,
plane-parallel, flat walls.
Figure 3.1: Schematic illustration of mounting
Attention!
For error-free position measurement, there must be an unobstructed line-of-sight between
the AMS 308iand the reflector.
3.1.1 Mounting the device
The laser is mounted using 4 screws (M5).
Alignment is performed using 2 adjustment screws. Adjust so that the laser light spot is
positioned at the center of the reflector. The alignment is to be secured with the knurled nut
and locked with the M5 nut.
Further information can be found in chapter 5.2 and chapter 5.3.
3.1.2 Mounting the reflector
The reflector is mounted using 4 screws (M5). The reflector is angled using the spacer
sleeves included. Incline the reflector by approx. 1°.
Detailed information can be found in chapter 6.4.

3.2 Connecting the voltage supply
The laser measurement system is connected using M12 connectors. The voltage supply is
connected via the PWR M12 connection (18 … 30VDC). 2 freely adjustable switching
inputs/outputs for individual adaptation to the respective application are also available here.
Detailed information can be found in chapter 7.
3.3 Display
Once the laser measurement system is supplied with voltage, the device status as well as
the measured position values can be read on the display. The display automatically switches
to the display of the measurement values.
Use the up/down buttons to the left of the display to read and change a wide range
of data and parameters.
Detailed information can be found in chapter 8.
3.4 AMS 308ion the Ethernet TCP/IP
Notice!
The AMS 308 i can communicate via TCP/IP or UDP. Standard is TCP/IP. If communication
should be via UDP, the "UDP" protocol must be activated via the display in the "Ethernet" -
"Host communication" submenu.
Standalone operation in Ethernet network
During stand-alone operation of the AMS 308i, the host interface of the primary system is
connected to HOST/BUS IN. Thus, a star structure (Ethernet structure) is possible.
Network operation in Ethernet network
In network operation, the primary system (PC/PLC) is connected to the host interface of the
AMS 308i. With the aid of the "switch" integrated in the AMS 308i, the bus connection to
the next participant, e.g. a AMS 308i, can occur directly via the BUS OUT socket!
Notice!
The AMS 308ihas a built-in DHCP client for automatically receiving assigned addresses.
The addresses can be assigned either via DHCP or manually via the display. When assigning
manually, make sure the IP addresses assigned are unique.
DHCP is deactivated by default.

3.5 Commissioning of the AMS 308i
3.5.1 Manually setting the IP address
Notice!
To set the network addresses, parameter enabling must be activated, as described in chapter
8.4.
If your system does not include a DHCP server or if the IP addresses of the devices are to
be set permanently, proceed as follows:
Have the network administrator specify the data for IP address, net mask and gateway
address of the AMS 308i.
Set these values on the AMS 308i.
The menu structure of the display entry can be found at the end of the manual. Call up the
corresponding menu levels and enter the respective addresses.
3.5.2 Automatically setting the IP address
If your system includes a DHCP server that is to be used to assign the IP addresses, observe
the following:
DHCP address assignment is deactivated by default. To activate DHCP address
assignment, parameter enabling must first be activated, see chapter 8.4.
The menu structure of the display entry can be found at the end of the manual. Call up the
corresponding menu levels to activate DHCP.
Further information on entering address data can be found in chapter 9.
3.5.3 Defining Ethernet host communication
The AMS 308ican communicate via TCP/IP or UDP. Standard is TCP/IP. If communication
should be via UDP, the "UDP" protocol must be activated via the display in the "Ethernet"
- "Host communication" submenu. UDP and TCP/IP can be activated simultaneously and
used in parallel.
If you would like to use the TCP/IP protocol for your application, you must also define
whether the AMS 308iis to operate as a TCP client or as a TCP server.
Contact your network administrator to determine which communication protocol is used.

TCP/IP
Notice!
Nutzen Sie bei der Displayeingabe den Ausklapper auf der letzten Seite zur Orientierung in
der Menüstruktur.
In TCP client mode, the AMS 308iactively establishes the connection to the primary host
system (PC / PLC as server). The AMS 308irequires from the user the IP address of the
server (host system) and the port number on which the server (host system) accepts a
connection. In this case, the AMS 308idetermines when and with whom a connection is
established!
With a AMS 308ias TCP client, also set the following values:
• IP address of the TCP server (normally the PLC/host computer)
• Port number of the TCP server
• Timeout for the wait time for an answer from the server
• Repetition time for renewed communication attempt following a timeout
In TCP server mode, the primary host system (PC / PLC) actively establishes the
connection and the connected AMS 308iwaits for the connection to be set up. The TCP/
IP stack requires information from the user regarding the local port of the AMS 308i(port
number) on which the connection requests of a client application (host system) are to be
accepted. If there is a connection request and a connection is established by the primary
host system (PC / PLC as client), the AMS 308i(server mode) accepts the connection. Data
can then be sent and received.
With a AMS 308ias TCP server, also set the following values:
• Port number for the communication of the AMS 308iwith the TCP clients.
UDP
The AMS 308irequires from the user the IP address and the port number of the communi-
cation partner. Correspondingly, the host system (PC / PLC) requires the set IP address of
the AMS 308iand the selected port number. By assigning these parameters, a socket is
formed via which the data can be sent and received.
Activate the UDP protocol.
Also set the following values:
• IP address of the communication partner.
• Port number of the communication partner.
Notice!
The AMS 308ialso offers the possibility of automatically accepting the address and port.
