4.1 TR-CL180 features - a summary
The TR-CL180 product is asingle channel lens controller for use in
machine vision applications. It works with the following ranges of Optotune
lenses:
EL-10-30
EL-16-40
4.2 GigE VisionTM
The TR-CL180 is GigE Vision™ compatible. This means that any
compatible GigE Vision client image processing software (for example,
CVB, LabVIEW, Halcon) allows the user to view and change controller
settings. GigE Vision is an industry standard protocol running on Ethernet
which provides easy configuration and control of cameras and other
devices.
The TR-CL180 is the first non-streaming device to become available
(at the time of publishing this manual), so some packages may not support
non-streaming devices yet. If your package does not work with the
TR-CL180 then please inform the manufacturer or Gardasoft.

10 General description
Three modes of operation are provided for the lens output:
Continuous –the output is constant, and can be set to any value
between the minimum and maximum optical power of the lens.
Switch –the trigger input can be used to switch the output between an
active optical power value and an idle optical power value.
Analog -the output is controlled by an analogue signal on the trigger input
which can vary the optical power between the minimum and maximum
power of the lens.
Additionally, using configuration commands, you can select arange of
waveforms to output (see Section 14.6, Waveform commands), and
program atimed sequence of optical power settings (see Section 14.7,
Programmable step commands).
The set-up is non-volatile, so the TR-CL180 resumes the same operation
after apower cycle.
10.1 Triggering
Trigger pulses should have aminimum pulse width of 2µs. You can set the
sense of the TR-CL180 trigger input. Do this by setting the Pflag from the
front panel (see Section 14, Configuration commands), the web page (see
Section 13, Webpage configuration)or the RE command (see Section 14,
Configuration commands). The effect of setting the Pflag is summarised
below:
Mode PFlag Output
Continuous Unused Output is on.
Switched PFlag = 1 Output is Idle when trigger is off,
Output is Active when trigger is on.
PFlag = 0 Output is Active when trigger is off,
Output is Idle when trigger is on.
Analog Unused N/A.
Note: The Pflag inverts the sense of the trigger.

10.1.1 Trigger input options
You can connect the following types of trigger to the Smart Input:
3V to 24V voltage source
Any voltage between 0V and 0.9V
is taken as logic 0.
Any voltage between 3V and 24V
is taken as logic 1.
TTL signal
You can connect aTTL signal to
the TR-CL180 input. However, a
3.3V TTL signal only works if it can
drive 8kohm without dropping
below 2.7V.
If the Pflag is set to ‘1’, the TR-
CL180 output turns on when the
TTL driver goes HIGH. To reverse
this, set the Pflag to ‘0’ (see
Section 10.1, Triggering).
NPN signal
You can connect an NPN open
collector drive to the TR-CL180’s
input. Use the connections
shown opposite.
If the Pflag is set to ‘1’ the TR-
CL180 output turns on when the
driving transistor turns on. To
reverse this, set the Pflag to ‘0’.
(see Section 10.1, Triggering).

TR-CL180 Lens Controller -User Manual
Opto-coupler
You can connect an opto-coupler
as an NPN drive to the TR-
CL180’s input. This prevents a
‘ground loop’ and reduces
spurious triggering in high-
interference environments.
If the Pflag is set to ‘1’ the TR-
CL180 output turns on when the
driving transistor turns on. To
reverse this, set the Pflag to ‘0’
(see Section 10.1, Triggering).
PNP signal
You can connect aPNP open
collector drive to the TR-CL180’s
input. Use the connections
shown opposite. The PNP
transistor should not pull up to
more than 24V.
If the Pflag is set to ‘1’ the TR-
CL180 output turns on when the
driving transistor turns on. To
reverse this, set the Pflag to ‘0’
(see Section 10.1, Triggering).
Analog signal
A0Vto 10Vanalog signal is input
to control the lens optical power
when the controller is in Analog
mode. This can be linear or non-
linear (see Section 14.5, Analog
mode commands).
10.2 Flags
You can set flags on the TR-CL180 controller to alter its operation. They
can be set from the unit’s front panel, the webpage or through the RE
command (see Section 14, Configuration commands). The following
configuration flags are available:
EFlag –Enables or disables fault detection. Error checking is enabled as
the default setting.
PFlag –Sets the trigger input active high or active low. The default setting
is active high. Refer to Section 10.1.1, Trigger input options for adetailed
description of the settings.

10.3 Factory settings
You can clear the TR-CL180 configuration to return it to its factory
settings.
Clear the configuration from the front panel by pressing and holding SEL
and for about 5seconds, until COL is displayed. You can also clear the
configuration by using the CL command (see Section 14, Configuration
commands).
You can start the TR-CL180 from apowered down state (cold boot) with
the front panel keypad locked; this process removes the keypad lock.
11 Front panel commands
Using the front panel keypad, you can set the configuration, set akey lock
code so unauthorised users cannot change any settings, set the internal
trigger timer, view trigger status, and set the voltage or current rating.
The TR-CL180 features aprotective clear plastic cover over the display
and push-buttons (see above). You can open this cover by pressing in the
tab on the right of the cover with afingernail or screwdriver. With this cover
open, the operation of the unit is unaffected by static discharges up to
2kV. With the protective cover closed, the EMC requirements of EN61326
are fully met. The unit is therefore suitable for initial setting up with the
cover open. However, the cover should be closed when in use.
11.0.1 Startup
