They can be appropriately integrated in the machine control with an 8-pin M12 connection or 16-/29-pin cable in three lengths. Thanks to their Ethernet interface, all devices are fully network capable. The electronic spirit level is integrated as is a large, plain-text display for easy on-site commissioning.
