ATTENTION!
The device may become very warm during operation. High temperatures may damage the
device. Ensure that any heat generated is dispersed by installing it with the rear to a good
heat conductor (aluminium).
Direct mounting on a solid metal (aluminium) object without using a retaining bracket is
required when operated in the limit zone (e.g. full load on the flash controller and
utilisation of the maximum operating temperature)!
For devices with integrated Industrial Ethernet only:
These devices are equipped with an internal temperature monitor for built-in protection.
There may be a warning message or emergency shutdown if the device is operated
outside its specified range.
ATTENTION!
Incorrect supply voltage will destroy the device!
Pin 1: Power ( 24 V ± 25 %)
Pin 2: Ground
ATTENTION!
The device can become damaged by strong radiation or electrical fields.
For this reason, never place the device near strong radiation sources or strong electrical
fields. These can occur in close proximity to lasers, for example.
ATTENTION!
The Vision Sensor is a class A device (DIN EN 55022:2011). It can cause radio
interference in residential environments. Should this happen, you must take reasonable
measures to eliminate the interference.
WARNING!
The device emits bright, pulsed light (Risk group 1, low risk, EN 62471:2008).
Bright, pulsed light can cause damage to the eyes and seizures.
Never look directly into the pulsed light from the LEDs!

NOTE
For devices with infra-red illumination
The devices use LED illumination of the risk group RG 0 (exempt group, no risk) as per
IEC/EN 62471.
The radiation of the LEDs does not pose a hazard to the human eye if the devices are
used for their intended purpose.
Even so, do not look directly into the light source –there is a danger of dazzle and
irritation. Mount the devices so that it is not possible to look directly into the light source.

5 Mode of operation
In contrast with conventional photoelectric sensors, this sensor operates with digital images and is capable of
conducting several feature checks with parameters set by the software.
The strength of the device lies in the detection of contours. With the procedure, differences in brightness can
be optimally tolerated, as contours are usually independent of the absolute brightness (e.g. variations in
illumination).
Because a test object can normally be definitively described by its relevant contours, the device provides
powerful tools to check their presence, position, completeness or colour. The high quality of the method
ensures that a reliable result is always achieved even with a rapid sequence of objects.
The diagram shows the schematic mode of operation with the corresponding parts of the sensor.
Here, each inspection task ("job") is divided into several feature checks. Each feature check executes one
task and returns an associated pass/fail result or the associated measured values. For this purpose, a field of
view must be defined that is either circular, an arc, rectangular or polygonal. The contours can be given via
search arrows for geometrical feature checks.
Then you can link the results from the feature checks into one result and output it via a digital interface. With
the device, the stored jobs can be selected via external switching inputs.

The device operates in two operating modes:
Activated
Configuration
In activated mode, the inspection task is conducted. The device operates autonomously in this mode and
can communicate directly with a PLC. The device receives all commands such as trigger or job number from
the external control system and mainly returns a pass or fail result. In activated mode you can also use the
Application Suite to monitor your inspection tasks.
In the Configuration mode you can configure and set the parameters for the jobs and features to be checked.
This is conducted using the Application Suite.
Because a high-quality digital image provides many means of visual inspection, the parameters of the jobs
have to be set according to the inspection task and the application. For this purpose, the Application Suite
provides a pre-configured input mask for each feature to be checked, which supports the determination of
the optimum settings.

6 Installation and initial set-up
6.1 Mechanical
set-up (image)
You can operate the device in any position.
Attach the device to the M4 screws provided for this purpose.
Align the device so that the image centre indicated below points directly at the object to be inspected.
The device should be installed so that it vibrates as little as possible during operation to avoid negative
influences on the image quality (blurred images).
Install the device so that there are no obstacles between the sensor and the object that could block the view
or cause reflections. Ensure that the device is protected as well as possible against dust.
Devices and its built-in lens can inspect fixed areas at fixed distances.
NOTE
The field of view and minimum module size for devices with interchangeable lenses
depends on the lens installed.

6.2 Mechanical set-up (heat dissipation)
#
ATTENTION!
The device may become very warm during operation. High temperatures may damage the
device. It is vital to ensure that heat is dissipated by appropriate assembly.
Direct mounting on a solid metal (aluminium) object without using a retaining bracket is
required when operated in the limit zone (e.g. full load on the flash controller and
utilisation of the maximum operating temperature)!
If there is a protective foil on the back of the vision sensor, it must be removed during the
final integration into the machine at the latest so that there is sufficient heat transfer to the
metallic connection!
The following are our recommendations for installation of the device to dissipate heat:
Install the mounting bracket across the full surface of the device and also across the full surface onto
heat conductive material on the system (aluminium profile 60 mm x 60 mm). In the case of devices
with integrated Industrial Ethernet, the offered mounting bracket should consist of 12 mm thick
aluminium; or a rear bracket at least comparable in rear attachment and heat dissipation capacity
should be used.
Avoid mounting onto stainless steel. Stainless steel has a roughly 10-fold lower thermal conductivity
compared to aluminium.
Do not install the device at the end of a profile; this will allow heat to dissipate on both sides (higher
temperature drops over a larger area)!
Matt coated surfaces (irrespective of colour) and anodised surfaces dissipate heat better than bare
metal surfaces (heat radiation). Use coated or anodised profiles for installing the device.
Every form of convection around the device and mounting helps reduce temperature. Prevent heat
from becoming trapped!
Do not operate other devices in close proximity to the Vision Sensor. Their waste heat could
additionally heat the Vision Sensor.
