3.1.1 IPS 200i positioning sensor
The camera-based positioning sensors of the IPS 200i series enable fast and simple positioning of high-
bay storage devices in conveyor and storage systems.
• Positioning is designed for high-bay container or pallet warehouses.
• The positioning sensor detects holes or reflectors in bars in the rack construction and determines the
position deviation in the X and Y direction relative to the nominal position.
• The position deviation is output to the control via four digital outputs or via the interface.
• The positioning sensor can be operated and configured using the integrated webConfig tool via the Eth-
ernet/PROFINET service interface.
The positioning sensor consists of the following components:
• Camera
• Control panel
• Lighting unit: Infrared
• Evaluation unit with the following interfaces:
• Digital I/Os
• Ethernet/PROFINET
The positioning sensors of the IPS 200i series are operated as a "stand-alone" single device with individual
IP address in an Ethernet topology.
The positioning sensor is optionally available with integrated heating.
Information on technical data and characteristics: see chapter 15 "Technical data".
Markings
The positioning sensor detects the following markers:
• Hole: Dark marking on light background
• Reflector: Light marking on dark background

3.3.2 Function selection and program selection
Function selection
The following functions are selected and displayed via the bar graph display (see chapter 8.6 "Activating
device functions"):
•AUTO: Auto setup function for determining the optimum exposure and marker settings. Additional
teaching of the position in the selected program, if possible.
•ADJ: Adjustment function for aligning the device and for teaching-in the position in the current program
The individual functions are selected and activated with the control buttons.
• Select function with the navigation button : The function LED flashes.
• Activate function with the enter button : The function LED illuminates continuously.
NOTICE
If you activate the AUTO or ADJ function via the control buttons, the device accepts no com-
mands via the process interface. Process mode is thereby interrupted.
Program selection
The control buttons and PROGRAM display can be used to select, activate and display programs that are
stored in the device.
3.3.3 Control buttons
Function selection and program selection are controlled via the control buttons.
NOTICE
In the Service operating mode (which is set using the webConfig tool), the positioning sensor
cannot be operated using the control buttons.
•  –navigation button: Scroll through the functions in the function and program selection display from
left to right.
•  –enter button: Scroll through the functions in the function and program selection display.

4.1 Programs
There are four programs stored in the positioning sensor. The programs can be configured, e.g., to com-
pensate for the position difference between the loading position and unloading position of the high-bay stor-
age device.
Switch between or activate programs in the device as follows:
• Via the webConfig tool (see chapter 4.7 "Leuze webConfig tool")
• Via the SWI3 and SWI4 switching inputs (default setting)
• Via control buttons on the device
• Via an Ethernet online command
On delivery, all programs are optimized as follows:
• Working distance: 300mm
• Hole diameter: 13mm
• Offset X/Y: 0mm
• Tolerance +/- X/Y: 4mm
• Marker tolerance: 15%
4.2 Camera operating modes
The camera operating mode defines how the positioning sensor starts and ends a positioning operation.
4.2.1 Single trigger mode
In the "Single trigger mode" camera operating mode, the positioning sensor captures one image and at-
tempts to determine the actual position of the marker relative to the nominal position.
4.2.2 Reading gate control
Upon activation, the reading gate control opens a time window in the device for the positioning operation. In
this time window, the positioning sensor continuously determines the relative position and outputs the posi-
tion. The reading gate control must be deactivated again via the trigger signal.
The "Reading gate control" camera operating mode is activated upon shipment from the factory.
4.3 Quality score
The quality score is a measure of the quality of the found marker and refers to the shape factor, the scaling
factor and the contrast of the taught marker. The quality score is output in percent [%].
Limit values can be defined in the positioning sensor via the quality score:
• Limit value at which a switching output is set as a warning if the value is less than or exceeds the limit.
• Limit value at which images are transferred via Ethernet / interface (FTP).
• In addition, the determined quality score can be output via the interface.
4.4 Offset
Offset in the X/Y direction that is taken into account for the positioning, e.g., when moving goods in and out
of storage. Here, the offset shifts the nominal position relative to the center point of the region of interest.
The offset can be in the positive or negative direction.
NOTICE
You can set one offset value per program.

Functions
Leuze electronic IPS 248i 19
Example
You would like the positioning sensor to be 20mm higher when moving a pallet into storage than when
moving it out of storage. This offset is stored in program1.

4.5 Teach position
For fine adjustment and as an alternative to precise mechanical alignment, you can teach-in the position of
the device. When teaching-in the position, the coordinate system of the region of interest is placed in the
center point of the detected marker.
You can activate the function in the device as follows:
• Via the webConfig tool (see chapter 4.7 "Leuze webConfig tool")
• Via control buttons on the device (via AUTO mode or ADJ mode)
• Via an Ethernet online command
If the teaching-in of the position fails, it may be due to the following reasons:
• The marker is not located in the device's region of interest.
• The limits of the new region of interest determined by teaching-in are not completely in the field of view.
