Correcting inductive distance sensor signal error caused by electromagnetic interference involves correcting measured sensor signal if activation of component(s) that causes electromagnetic interference, error are detected in sensor signal

摘要

The method involves correcting the measured sensor signal for an error if activation of at least one component that causes electromagnetic interference is detected along with an associated error in the sensor signal of the inductive distance or angle measurement signal. The component that causes electromagnetic interference is a magnetic valve. An independent claim is also included for a device for setting a distance or angle with at least one control component and at least one distance and/or angle sensor.
