Direct UART Communication with the CS Sensor

In this video, you’ll learn how to directly connect an Optris CS sensor to an Arduino board using the integrated UART interface—without the need for an analog-to-digital converter.

We’ll demonstrate how to read values like process temperature, ambient temperature, and even the sensor’s serial number. You’ll also see how to change settings such as emissivity or transmission using simple UART commands.

Watch step-by-step how to integrate the CS sensor into your Arduino project and access all necessary commands using the CS command list from the CompactConnect software.
