Questions and Answers : 

• What is the Time-of-Flight (ToF) technology used in the WS201? 

Time-of-Flight (ToF) technology is a method of measuring distance using the time taken for a light or sound signal to reach an object and return. In the WS201 sensor, ToF technology is used to accurately detect fill levels.

• What is the detection range of the fill level sensor?

The sensor has a detection range from 1 to 55 cm, with an accuracy of 1 cm for close distances (1 to 15 cm), 2 mm for medium distances (15 to 35 cm) and 3 mm for longer distances (35 to 55 cm).

• How does it indicate fill alerts? 

The WS201 sensor can be configured to send fill alerts based on pre-defined percentage thresholds, enabling proactive and efficient inventory management.

• What is the battery life of the WS201?

It is equipped with a 590 mAh CR2450 lithium battery, offering a service life of up to 2 years.
